Book excerpt: Weddings are murder in the new Cranberry Cove Mystery from USA Today bestselling author Peg Cochran! The cranberry bogs at Sassamanash Farms have never looked more festive than when Monica’s half-brother celebrates his wedding there. It’s a genuinely joyous occasion, and even greeting a strange assortment of guests and witnessing a heated argument can’t spoil Monica’s mood. But that all changes when one of the guests is found murdered at the reception—and then one of Monica’s employees is accused of doing the deed to get his hands on the dead woman’s money. It doesn’t take long for Monica to discover that the victim had amassed her fortune by marrying a very wealthy—and very ill—older man. What’s more, the old man’s daughters despised the scheming, gold-digging woman, and thought the inheritance money should have been theirs. That seems like motive enough for murder, but Monica suspects there’s more to this case than simple greed. With her employee in hot water and time running out, Monica will have to act fast to catch the killer, before a case that started with a family wedding ends with her own funeral . . . Includes a mouthwatering bread recipe! Praise for the Cranberry Cove Mysteries: “Peg Cochran has a truly entertaining writing style that is filled with humor, mystery, fun, and intrigue. You cannot ask for a lot more in a super cozy!” —Open Book Society “I can’t wait for Monica’s next tasty adventure—and I’m not just saying that because I covet her cranberry relish recipe.” —Victoria Abbott, national bestselling author of the Book Collector Mysteries
