The usually quiet town of Granford, Massachusetts, is in for a jolt when Monica Whitman moves in. Sheโs a dynamo who makes friends easily. One of her first acquaintances is orchard owner Meg Corey Chapman. Sheโs intrigued by the new arrival, who has already sold the town board on a new, fun way to spice up the cold winter months. WinterFare will feature local foods and crafts as well as entertainment. Itโs exactly what the town needs to bring in visitors during the offseason.
But tragedy strikes when Monica falls ill and dies. It looks like a case of food poisoning, but after all the food on the premises has been tested, including Megโs apples, it becomes clear that thereโs a more sinister explanation to the older womanโs demise.
Megโs investigation of the crime leads to some unlikely suspects, including a rival apple-grower, but the biggest mystery of all may involve the dead womanโs husband.
