“This wonderful whodunit is a must-read that will not allow you to put it down. I wish I could give it more than 5 stars.”—Open Book SocietyAs a child, Laura Bradford fell in love with writing over a stack of blank paper, a box of crayons, and a freshly sharpened number two pencil. From that moment forward, she never wanted to do or be anything else. Today, Laura is the author of the Emergency Dessert Squad Mysteries, which debuted with Éclair and Present Danger, and the national bestselling Amish Mysteries, including A Churn for the Worse and Suspendered Sentence.US
