Subject(s): Genre/Form: Summary: "Shiloh Bellamy can hardly believe it -- for the first time in her family farm's seventy-year history, she has managed to score a highly coveted booth at the Cherry Farm Market in Traverse City, Michigan. It's a huge win in her master plan to bring the run-down farm back to life ... and the fact that her coup has sent her next-door neighbor and organic farming competitor into fits of jealousy doesn't hurt either. But the festive atmosphere at the farm market takes a dark turn when a man entered in the famous cherry pit-spitting competition chokes and dies. When the death turns out to be more suspicious than a cherry pit down the wrong pipe, Shiloh finds herself under local law enforcement's microscope. And when they discover her cousin Stacey had been secretly dating the man in question-and that he was married to someone else-Shiloh begins to worry that everything she has worked so hard to accomplish with her family's farm is about to be taken away.

Murder is the pits

Shiloh Bellamy can hardly believe it-for the first time in her family farm's seventy-year history, she has managed to score a highly-coveted booth at the Cherry Farm Market in Traverse City, Michigan. It's a huge win in her master plan to bring the rundown farm back to life... and the fact that her coup has sent her next-door neighbor and organic farming competitor into fits of jealousy doesn't hurt, either. But the festive atmosphere at the farm market takes a dark turn when a man entered in the famous cherry pit-spitting competition chokes and dies right in front of Shiloh, who is standing near the sidelines as a spectator.

When the death turns out to be more suspicious than a cherry pit down the wrong pipe, Shiloh finds herself under local law enforcement's microscope-she has developed something of a reputation for being unwittingly involved in local murders. And when they discover her cousin Stacey had been secretly dating the man in question-and that he was married to someone else-Shiloh begins to worry that everything she has worked so hard to accomplish with her family's farm is about to be taken away. It will take all her investigative skills, a tenuous friendship (or is it something more?) with the local sheriff, and some help from Shiloh's trusty pug, Huckleberry, to prove the cops are barking up the wrong cherry tree and put the real killer behind bars for good.

Includes recipes.
