Title: A Killing in Antiques: A Lucy St. Elmo Antiques Mystery
Product description: Treasure hunting is not for the faint of heart. Luckily, Lucy St. Elmo, owner of the Cape Cod antiques shop St. Elmo Fine Antiques, has more than enough heart. What she needs to improve are her tracking skills-or else the wrong man could be convicted of a one-of-a-kind murder.
She was about to shut down her computer when she remembered Bree's warning about the weather. She clicked onto a weather site and read with a mixture of anxiety and scepticism about a burgeoning storm that seemed to be headed right in her direction. (p. 14)
Title: Bitter Harvest: An Orchard Mystery
Product description: Now that Meg Corey's apples have been harvested and sold, she's enjoying some free time. But when the small but annoying mishaps plaguing her start turning sinister, Meg begins to worry that her first harvest may be her last.
