Englischer Bailey King, co-owner of the Amish candy shop Swissmen Sweets, is stunned when the normally confident, unflappable community organizer Margot Rawlings is in a tizzy due the impending visit of her mother, Zara Bevan. Zara, a retired judge, is an overly critical mother and, as a judge, tended to sentence Amish defendants harshly. When Zara's much younger fianc�, Blaze Smith, dies from an allergic reaction to peanuts, both Margot and Zara ask Bailey to investigate, as they fear Margot will be a suspect. In addition to working at her store during the busy Black Friday weekend, Bailey interviews numerous suspects, ultimately identifying the killer and motive. Details of running a candy shop and the lovingly described Holmes County, Ohio, Amish setting frame a satisfying story in which Bailey must also deal with her unease about the strength of her long-distance relationship with lawman Aiden Brody and her desire to expand her shop. Plenty of humor and the cast of quirky characters, including a miniature pig, enliven this cozy.
