Berry Betrayal (Mysteries à la Mode Book 8)
By Tammy Beck
Labor Day weekend in Harmony Bay means one thing: the annual Berry Fair. With pie-eating contests, a preserves competition, and the crowning of the Berry Queen, it’s the sweetest event of the year. But when Carly Meadows—the reigning Berry Queen—turns up dead in the canning tent, the fair takes a bitter turn.
As evidence mounts against Carly’s longtime rival, Marla Sterling, Francis Desmarais can’t ignore the feeling that there’s more to the story. Digging into festival feuds, secret grudges, and the curious disappearance of a prized antique berry jar, Francis uncovers a juicy web of deception—and a killer hiding in plain sight.
With the fair’s grand finale fast approaching, can Francis crack the case before another victim gets picked off?
Welcome back to Harmony Bay, where the pies are sweet, the secrets are spicy, and murder is always on the menu!
