ABOUT THE BOOK
Put on your springtime best and grab a basket, because Easter egg hunting is to dye for in this delightful new collection of Easter-themed capers set in coastal Maine and featuring fan-favorite sleuths from the long-running, bestselling cozy mystery series by Leslie Meier, Lee Hollis, and Barbara Ross!
EASTER BASKET MURDER by LESLIE MEIER
Tinker’s Cove businesses are clashing over a new Easter Basket-themed promotion to boost sales, with tensions boiling over the grand prize—a mysterious golden egg crafted by a reclusive Maine artist. When the one-of-a-kind art piece is stolen, it’s up to part-time reporter Lucy Stone to investigate what turns into a deadly case . . .
DEATH BY EASTER EGG by LEE HOLLIS
As Bar Harbor’s annual egg hunt approaches, Food & Cocktails columnist and restauranteur Hayley Powell is thrilled to introduce her grandson, Eli, to local springtime traditions—which does not include the death of the Easter bunny! With a clear-as-cellophane case of murder on her hands, it’s up to Hayley to crack the clues and scramble deadly plans before it’s too late . . .
HOPPED ALONG by BARBARA ROSS
Julia Snowden’s Easter Sunday at Windsholme, a sprawling mansion tucked away on a remote Maine island, looks like it’s been borrowed from the pages of a lifestyle magazine. But when a dead body is discovered in the garden, Julia must find out if April Fool’s Day came early or if she’s caught in a killer’s twisted game . . .
MY THOUGHTS
Easter Basket Murder by
Leslie Meier; Lee Hollis; Barbara Ross is a collection of novella length mystery stories revolving around Easter and Spring and all take place in Maine.
I’ve read cozy mysteries by all of the authors and have enjoyed them all to various degrees with very different stories.
With the busyness of the Easter holiday, I hadn’t time to read it beforehand but read it all on Easter day. I have a few books by these authors I need to catch up on soon as well. Enjoyable reads.
I was given a complimentary copy of this book.
All opinions expressed are my own.
Have a wonderful day!
