Megan Sawyer left Chicago and her legal career to help her grandmother run the family farm and café in Winsome, PA. Washington Acres dates back to colonial times, and rumor has it that George Washington slept there. Simon Duvall, the local zoning commissioner, is determined to bring the farm under the aegis of the historical society and stands in Megan's way at every step. When she and local veterinarian Daniel "Denver" Finn find Duvall's body in her barn, Megan must take action to protect her grandmother and the farm.
VERDICT The author of the "Allison Campbell" mysteries (Killer Image) switches gears with this charming and entertaining cozy series debut that joins the ranks of such farm-related mysteries as Meera Lester's A Beeline to Murder. Megan is a spunky heroine who loves her family and wants to succeed. Readers of animal-centric cozies will flock to this.
