An Amish Bed and Breakfast Mystery with Recipes – PennDutch Mysteries #14

Tensions in the Mennonite-Amish community of Hernia, PA are running red. Felicia Baccustelli, a slick city gal, plans to open a wine 'spa' in the cozy little town. Not only are the teetotalers of the local community bubbling over with disapproval, but Magdalena Yoder, owner of the illustrious PennDutch Inn and self-appointed boss of everything, worries it could put her out of business!
So when this much-disliked newcomer is found encased in cement, everyone's a suspect, especially Magdalena. And now that former police chief, Melvin Stolzfus, is in jail himself, a newly appointed police chief takes charge of the case. But he doesn't seem to understand the subtle nuances of life in Hernia and the town soon turns on him. If Magdalena doesn't find the killer herself, she may end up in jail with her nemesis, Melvin Stolzfus...or worse!
"Bubbling over with mirth and mystery." –Dorothy Cannell

      December 19, 2005
      In Myer's disappointing 14th mystery to star Mennonite hotelier Magdalena Yoder (after 2005's Assault and Pepper
      ), Felicia Bacchustelli, a long-legged glamour-puss, arrives in Hernia, Pa., and announces plans to open a spa that will put Magdalena's PennDutch Inn out of business. When Felicia gets herself murdered, Magdalena is suspect "numero uno"—so to save her own hide and satisfy her endless curiosity, our heroine sets out to finger the real killer. Magdalena has never seemed more annoying, or her penchant for attracting sexy bachelors never more perplexing. The recipes shoehorned between chapters are superfluous. And when the real killer confesses, the solution seems improbable rather than surprising.
