Easter Bonnet Murder (Large Print)

Description

Easter meets murder in the latest book in New York Times bestselling author Leslie Meiers ever-popular Lucy Stone mystery series set in Tinkers Cove, Maine! Part-time reporter Lucy Stone isnt about to put all her eggs in one basket during a frantic Easter in Tinkers Cove--especially when it comes to cracking a deadly mystery. Known for its cheerful staff and elaborate annual Easter Bonnet Contest, the Heritage House senior center regularly attracts new residents and positive press. But once the towns retired librarian, Miss Julia Tilley, checks in to recover from an illness, Lucy sees a side of the facility that isnt quite so perfect and pristine. And the place may soon be making headlines for different reasons following an unexplained disappearance... Lucy cant fathom how Agnes Neal could go missing from assisted living over a silly Easter bonnet contest, or why few seem concerned as signs point to foul play. A retired journalist with an independent mind, Agnes had an eye for details and little interest in conforming to catty cliques or rules set by her caretakers--traits that threatened some and angered others. While police stall the investigation without answers, Lucy realizes backstabbing has no age limit when alarming parallels bloom between her daughters college frenemies and social circles at Heritage House. Gathering clues as flimsy as a half-eaten milk chocolate bunny, Lucy must hop to it and discover what happened to Agnes--before her own story becomes another springtime tragedy left unsolved.
