The Marmalade Murders by Elizabeth J. Duncan Pdf

The Marmalade Murders is the ninth book in Elizabeth J. Duncan's award-winning mystery series, celebrated for its small-town charm and picturesque Welsh setting and starring amateur sleuth Penny Brannigan. The competition is friendly and just a little fierce at the annual Llanelen agricultural show as town and country folk gather for the outdoor judging of farm animals and indoor judging of cakes, pies, pastries, chutneys, jams and jellies, along with vegetables, fruit and flowers. But this year, there’s a new show category: murder. Local artist, Spa owner, and amateur sleuth Penny Brannigan agrees to help with the intake of the domestic arts entries and to judge the children’s pet competition on show day. When the president of the Welsh Women's Guild isn’t on hand to see her granddaughter and pet pug win a prize, the family becomes concerned. When a carrot cake entered in the competition goes missing, something is clearly amiss. A black Labrador Retriever belonging to the agricultural show’s president discovers the body of the missing woman under the baked goods table. A newcomer to town, a transgender woman, is suspected, but amateur sleuth Penny Brannigan believes her to be innocent. She sets out to find the real killer, but when a second body is discovered days later, the case is thrown into confusion, and Penny knows it’s up to her to figure out what happened—and why.

Marmalade and Murder by Edward Lodi Pdf

When Lena Lombardi's neighbor and fellow cranberry grower Gregory Eldridge is found dead, it looks like the perfect crime has been committed: no apparent motive, no witnesses, no plausible suspects, no substantial clues. Lena, half in fun, takes it upon herself to enlist the aid of her newfound friend Cheryl Fernandes in solving the crime.When the two women begin "poking around," someone becomes very upset and violence quickly follows. A booby trap is set, causing a near-fatal mishap; nocturnal shootings occur; a "ghost" is seen lurking near an isolated screenhouse.Lena is undaunted by these goings-on; she is after all handy with a gun. And Cheryl is no wimp. But when it becomes evident that the two women will not allow themselves to be scared off, the real trouble begins.When Marmalade and Murder appeared in hardcover in 2008 it immediately sold out and has since become a much sought after collector's item, especially among loyal readers of the acclaimed Cranberry Country Mystery series.The three subsequent books in the series are Murder at Anawan Rock, Murder on a Lonely Bog, and Murder in an Old, Dark House. Set on and around the cranberry bogs of Cape Cod and Plymouth County, all four mysteries feature Lena and Cheryl, and are noted for their local color, atmospheric suspense, compelling plots with surprising twists, subtle humor, and authentic characterization.

With a picturesque black and white lighthouse, pebble beaches and stunning views of sea and mountains, the island of Anglesey off the coast of North Wales is the perfect place for an idyllic mid-summer painting holiday. And watercolour artist, businesswoman, and amateur sleuth Penny Brannigan is enjoying the retreat enormously - until she discovers the body of a New Zealand journalist on a secluded beach just as the tide is going out, threatening to take the body with it.

And as her holiday romance with a wildlife photographer turns to love, she learns some truths about herself, too, that surprise her. As the winds of change blow through Penny's own life, she sets sail on a friendly tide for a future she never dreamed possible, in a beautiful place she never imagined
