- Synopsis
- It&’s murder by musket at a Revolutionary War re-enactment: &“This satisfying cozy will appeal to fans of Joanne Fluke&’s Hannah Swensen mysteries.&”—Booklist High noon on July Fourth in the quiet town of Longley, New York, and it&’s got to be a hundred degrees. Thankfully, sisters Bernie and Libby are setting up their yummy catering in a shady gazebo for the reenactment of The Battle of Meadow Creek—and not baking in those Revolutionary War uniforms with their fellow townspeople. After a few cheery exchanges of &“Moveth&” and &“Thou speakest treason,&” the muskets are fired and the fake battle is over. But the blood on the notorious town playboy looks very real. Is it possible he&’s had his last tryst? When town councilman and resident loudmouth Rick Evans accuses Libby&’s beau, Marvin, Bernie and Libby know they&’ve got to get cooking on the case. But the former Casanova has burned half the town—including the hotheaded politician and his occasionally faithful wife. And what about the re-enactor who&’s training as an EMT yet almost fainted at the sight of the deceased&’s blood? Bernie and Libby have their plates overloaded with suspects, and will need to work fast to clear Marvin&’s name. The simmering killer is still out there, armed and taking shots, and unless the sisters quickly get to the bottom of this patriotic pre-meditation, their goose may be cooked…Includes original recipes for you to try! &“Scorned women, jealous husbands, Wiccans, and Hilda the pet pig add to the cozy fun.&”—Publishers Weekly
