Red Delicious Death
by Sheila Connolly

In this latest Orchard mystery, amateur sleuth Meg Corey takes a bite out of crime...

Some baby-faced chefs, fresh out of cooking school, are looking to open a restaurant in Granford. They plan on using local foods—great news for city girl banker-turned orchard owner Meg Corey. Yet when one of the chefs is found dead, face-down in a farmer’s pig wallow, plans come to a screeching halt. And Meg soon discovers they may have a locally grown killer on their hands.
