I wanted to share our second #WordlessWednesday with you and ask you what are you reading? Last night the internet went out during a movie I was watching. I grabbed a book to read and I choose Behind the Frame: A Shepherd Sisters Mystery from Hallmark Publishing (A Shepherd Sisters Mystery, 2) by Tracy Gardner (Author) which is a murder mystery David and I found at Ollies. This is part of a series and can be read as a stand alone. Once I finish the book I will be back to share my thoughts with you.
About the book:
When art in the park
leads to murder in the dark,
the Shepherd sisters
have another crime to solve.
Savanna Shepherd, an art expert turned elementary art teacher, is planning the Art in the Park festival for her hometown of Carson. But apparently, someone isn’t happy that Carson got to host the event: the beloved statue in the park is destroyed. Not long after, Savanna finds the dead body of one of the people on the planning committee.
Savanna and her sisters are convinced that the arrested murder suspect didn’t do it, despite strong evidence to the contrary. With the help of Dr. Aidan Gallager, Savanna’s new romantic interest, they uncover hidden resentments and intrigue. Several people in Carson had a motive for the murder. Can they find out which one of them is behind the framing of an innocent person?
This intriguing mystery includes a free Hallmark original recipe for Mini Rhubarb Pies.
