One Crow For Murder — J.B. Perkins

Halloween is fast approaching in the small coastal town of Quinby Haven. Lillie Tillman couldn't be more excited. She's already set up decorations at the bed and breakfast where she lives and at her friend's book store.But Lillie's friends at Rousseau's Retreat don't exactly share her enthusiasm when it comes to the eerie holiday. They already have their hands full with a strange mixture of guests - an accountant scared of his own shadow, a couple who appear to hate B&Bs, a man who rattles off useless trivia and his wife who fills her handbag with anything not nailed down.If you throw in a rash of local burglaries, a single black crow warning of catastrophic upheaval, and a possible con artist, could things take a more ghoulish turn? Could something deadly come next?Join Quinby Haven's favorite amateur sleuths as they become entangled in not one but two major mysteries. Will they be able to unravel the clues before the town mayor has a meltdown or Chief Culbertson throws them off the case? Time is clearly running out.This is a cozy mystery with female sleuths in a small-town setting. It contains no strong profanity, sex, gore or graphic scenes of violence. Book three of A Southern B&B Mystery Series is a stand-alone story and can be read as such. However, the characters will be better enjoyed if the series is read in numerical order.
