September's Books

Who would belief there could be murder on an organic farm? In Edith Maxwell’s “A Tine to Live, a Tine to Die,” there’s more mischief than mulch on the farm. Cam Flaherty traded in her high tech job to run an organic farm. Things were off to a good start, she thought, until she catches Mike, the farm hand she inherited from her uncle, using pesticides in her greenhouse. She fires him on the spot, and hours later discovers his body with her pitchfork run through his neck. While police investigate, while believing Cam is the prime suspect, her farm is the target of vandalism. Is the vandal the same person who killed Mike? If you can’t visit the farmers’ market, this is the perfect book for a lazy summer afternoon.
