Amish Inn Mysteries

By: Elizabeth Penney

Narrated by: Lisa Cordinleone

Pleasant Creek, Indiana's first annual summer arts and crafts fair has Liz Eckardt beaming. Tourists are coming out of the woodwork to get their hands on Amish-inspired goods, and the Olde Mansion Inn, her bed-and-breakfast, is full to the rafters. But when sawbucks start disappearing from the vendors, and Mayor Jackson Cross' furniture samples are marred, it's clear someone is trying to throw a monkey wrench into the festivities.

Unfortunately, Jackson has bigger worries. His ex-employee is mad enough to spit nails, and when he is found polished off - murdered with a distinctive table leg - Jackson becomes the prime suspect.

Liz decides to investigate when she suspects that some of the guests under her roof are not on the level - a mysterious Texan, two very nosy ladies, and a gentleman clearly using an assumed name. And what about the family who've arrived in Pleasant Creek ostensibly looking to dust themselves off and make a fresh start? Are they who they seem to be, or are they responsible for the sinister handiwork around town?

Liz and the rest of the Material Girls will need all the tools of the trade to hammer out a solution to the crimes in Pleasant Creek before Jackson is sent to the Big House - permanently.
