BAKE SALE MURDER

Lucy Stone's neighborhood has changed considerably since a new addition was added very close to their house. She's especially not fond of Mimi, the neighbor who is threatening to have her lilac hedge cut down. Still, the Hat and Mitten Fund wants to raise money for school supplies for needy kids and it seems that the newcomers may be willing to help out with a community bake sale. When Mimi doesn't show up with her baked goods, Lucy goes to check on her and finds her stabbed in her own kitchen with a butcher knife.

I haven't read any of Leslie Meier's Lucy Stone books for a long time. I really enjoyed this one. Lucy is a very realistic character who seems like a real mom and working woman. I think I'll try to catch up in this series.

Rating - 4.5 stars
