Millie's decidedly not Amish best friend, Lois Henry, is outspoken, colorful, and so hopelessly romantic, she's had four husbands. Millie doesn't judge, and she also doesn't expect to run into Lois's most recent ex, gambler Gerome Moorhead, in small-town Harvest, Ohio. With him is the very young, new Mrs. Moorhead, aka "Honeybee." Lois is outraged, but Millie is completely shocked to learn the next day that Gerome is already a widower . . .
When a large wood carving at the cozy Munich Chalet falls on "Honeybee," all eyes turn toward Lois. Who else would want a tourist—a complete stranger—dead? And half of Harvest witnessed Lois's enmity toward the young woman. Suddenly Millie must put aside her sewing needle and flex her sleuthing skills. She's no stranger to a murder investigation, after all, and if she doesn't learn who killed Honeybee, Lois could go from Millie's boisterous best friend to her horrified prison penpal . . .

Millie Fisher, a widow and matchmaker in the Amish community of Harvest, Ohio, and her best friend Lois, an "Englisher"--and definitely not Amish--are headed off to a Valentine's Day spaghetti supper, a fundraiser for a drug-counseling center. On the way, they stop at the Sunbeam Caf�, operated by Lois' granddaughter. Unsurprisingly, Lois does not react well when she sees her ex-husband with his new, much-younger wife, Paige, in town on their honeymoon. The next day, appalled by her own rudeness, Lois picks up Millie to go to the pseudo-chalet where the couple are staying to apologize. As they arrive, the cuckoo in the giant carved tower emerges and promptly crashes, killing Paige. Though Lois is a suspect, along with her ex-husband, the unlikely duo proceed to investigate. What they unearth points to the importance and desperate need for the drug-counseling center. This entertaining mystery, the fourth in the series, is set in the same locale as the author's Amish Candy Shop novels.COPYRIGHT(2023) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
