Lethal Licorice by Amanda Flower

 

Bailey King is participating in the Amish Confectionery Competition representing her grandparents candy shop. Who would have thought that the Amish could be so competitive? When Jethro, a pot-bellied pig, goes missing Bailey agrees to help his frantic owner find him. What she doesn't count on is finding a dead body! Especially when evidence starts pointing to Bailey as a possible murderer!

This is the second book in the Amish Candy Shop Mysteries. Amanda Flower doesn't disappoint in this installment! I love the humor that runs throughout the book and is a signature for the author's books. Even though the community is an Amish community there are still many disagreements and a lot of gossip that fly around. Bailey once again sticks her nose into Deputy Aiden Brody's investigation. I found her lurking around listening in on conversations a bit annoying, but how else is a girl supposed to solve a murder? I love the characters in this series and I hope that the next installment will forward Bailey and Aiden's relationship because they definitely need to be together! If you enjoy a cozy mystery then I highly recommend picking up one of Amanda Flower's series, they are well-thought out, filled with humor and always a surprise as to the "who-done-it".

There is a bonus recipe for black licorice at the end of the book. I'm going to try it!

Check out my review of the first book in the series:
