September Mourn, Paperback / softback Book

September Mourn Paperback / softback

Part of the Murder by Month Mystery series

Paperback / softback

Description

A festive fairground becomes an unexpected backdrop for a grade A murder in a deliciously funny mystery by Edgar Award–nominated author Jess Lourey. The Minnesota State Fair wows again with 4-H exhibits, rides, a Neil Diamond concert, and deep-fried everything on a stick.

Covering it is a breezy assignment as fluffy as cotton candy for reporter Mira James, until the main attraction becomes murder. Ashley Pederson, crowned Milkfed Mary, Queen of the Dairy, is getting her all-American likeness carved in a block of unsalted butter when she drops dead, her face as red as a stoplight.

Cause: malicious poisoning. Despite Ashley’s creamy good looks, her reputation was pretty rancid.

Still, who’d want to take out the soon-to-be college freshman and Battle Lake resident?

Mira’s made a vow to the dairy darling’s grieving mother to find out. Amid queenly competitors, rumors of sordid love affairs and embezzlement scandals, small-town secrets, and big business cover-ups, can Mira find the murderer on the Midway?

You bet your corn dog she can. Revised edition: This edition of September Mourn includes editorial revisions.
