The entire town of Cranberry Cove is popping with excitement. Monica Albertson is baking cranberry goodies by the dozen and shopkeepers are decking out their storefronts for the first annual Winter Walk—an event dreamed up by the mayor to bring visitors to the town during a normally dead time of year.
But it’s the mayor who turns up dead during the grand opening ceremony, his lifeless body making its entrance in a horse-drawn sleigh. Monica’s mother and stepmother quickly become the prime suspects when it’s discovered that the mayor was dating both of them, and to make things worse, her half brother Jeff uncovers a clue buried near one of the bogs on Sassamanash Farm. Now it’s up to Monica to find out who really put the mayor on ice.
Review of Berry The Hatchet
Review (4 Stars): Berry The Hatchet was deliciously entertaining!!! Monica is baking cranberry goodies for the upcoming Winter Walk as well as preparing for her mother’s visit to Cranberry Cove when the body of the mayor is found dead during the opening ceremony. Now, Monica must find a killer before it is too late and one of her family members is charged with a crime they didn’t commit.
This is the second book in the Cranberry Cove mystery series and each book is an absolute delight. Monica is a great heroine and these mysteries are well-written and fast-paced. This one had me guessing until the very end and I’m excited to spend more time in Cranberry Cove in the future.
