In this delicious new novel, Magdalena’s cozy PennDutch Inn is faced
with some very deadly competition…
Kentucky Colonel George Custard thinks Magdalena’s hometown of Hernia,
Pennsylvania is perfect…so perfect in fact, he has decided to build
his new mega five-star hotel there. And if everything goes according
to plan, roads will be widened and wealthy tourists will start pouring
in by the thousands. But not everyone thinks this is such a good idea,
as the new superstructure will surely destroy the town’s quaint and
quiet ambience. Meanwhile, Hernia has another unwelcome guest to worry
about, after wild reports that Bigfoot is roaming the area.
At a town council meeting, several vocal citizens arrive to protest
Custard’s project, including Magdalena. Soon after, the colonel is
found murdered—shot to death at the PennDutch Inn. No one minded
telling him off, but killing him off is a different story. With the
police investigation going nowhere, Magdalena takes it upon herself to
find out who caused Custard’s last stand. She must stay one step
ahead of both the rumors and the builders to solve the case, restore
peace—and save her beloved town…
INCLUDES A HALF-DOZEN HEAVENLY CUSTARD RECIPES!

"Think Mayberry R.F.D. with Mennonites. Think
Murder, She Wrote with a Pennsylvania Dutch accent. Instead of
Jessica Fletcher, think Magdalene Yoder, a plain-dressing, blunt-speaking,
middle-aged innkeeper who frequently rescues the incompetent chief of
police by solving his cases....The series's popularity is rising like
sticky bun dough." --The Morning Call (Allentown,
PA.)
