| Angie Braddock
is dealing with quite a bit this holiday season. Her parents
are spending Christmas in Rolling Brook, OH with her. The
unexpected and unwanted addition of her ex, Ryan Dickinson,
is causing Angie much grief. Life goes on and so will the
progressive dinner that night. Each store will serve a course
with the main course being served at the Swiss Valley Hotel.
The play, An Amish Christmas, will be seen at the barn next
door after dinner.
Dinner at the hotel is a lively affair with
the actors sitting with the guests. Angie is sitting next
to the play's lead, Eve Shetler. Angie even hands out programs
before the play begins. An accident with a piece of the scenery
causes the death of one of the actors. It turns out this was
not an accident. The rope used to move the tree limb has been
cut. Angie had better be careful solving this murder even
if the play is the thing.
Things to ponder: Why did Ryan come to Rolling
Brook? Where was Nahum Shetler during the commotion? Will
the sheriff ever get to meet Angie's parents? Will the play
go on?
Wow. I think this series gets better with
each book. I love the characters and how they interact with
each other. The story is well plotted and became a page-turner
of a read for me. I had to find out whodunit. Cozy mystery
lovers will love solving this mystery. The author has provided
instructions to make your own Amish Quilted Snowman. The next
in this delightful series will be out in October 2015. Look
for Murder, Plainly Read. So if you like your mystery
filled with holiday spirit, then you should be reading Murder,
Served Simply.
