This is the fourth in the Farm to Table Mysteries by well-known cozy mystery author Amanda Flower, and main character Shiloh had yet another murder on her hands and tried to prove her disagreeable cousin innocent. Family’s everything to Shiloh and I can admire her for that.
I’ve never seen such a faithful relative as Shiloh, yet her cousin and dad never seem to appreciate her that much, kinda a different twist on a dad and cousin character. Usually I love most main characters’ dads (and cousins are usually cool), but this guy’s been a curmudgeon and not real lovable. Stacey’s been mean to Shiloh since she came back. Sully Bellamy makes no secret that he favors his niece over his daughter. But Shiloh’s friendship with Quinn’s daughter Hazel makes up for all that conflict. Hazel’s an awesome kid and at twelve, and she’s got probably more smarts than many adults! She could seriously be spun off in her own mystery series and I’d definitely read it!

My Goodreads review:
Crime and Cherry Pits by Amanda Flower
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This was another fun adventure with Shiloh, her quirky family and her good friends but this time most of the action happened in Traverse City for the Cherry Festival where Shiloh had a vendor booth.
Lots happened in Shiloh and others’ lives as this mystery got investigated and somehow I got the feeling this might be the last book in the series. It was a good way to give closure to all. I’ve enjoyed reading this series a lot and can only imagine what Shiloh’s life’s gonna bring her in the future.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book provided by Poisoned Pen Press via NetGalley, and my opinions are my own.
