Candy Corn Murder by Leslie Meier
4.0
Candy Corn Murder is a Halloween themed Lucy Stone mystery. A small town called Tinker’s Cove is gearing up to have their first annual Giant Pumpkin Fest and everyone’s freaking out. The men in town are overly protective of their growing pumpkins when things start to go wrong in the days leading up to the competition. There’s all sorts of murder happening, both pumpkin and man. When Lucy’s husband ends up as a prime suspect, it’s up to her to do some sleuthing. Can she figure out in time who’s behind the murder and what their motive was?
This was a well-written and developed murder mystery that was quite enjoyable. I was a bit disappointed that the back book cover description gave away too many details pertaining to the murder, but I enjoyed reading along to find out why he was murdered and how it happened. This was the 22nd novel in the Lucy Stone Mystery series but, as I did, can be read alone.
