Daisy and her husband, Joe, are in there 50's and have retired to Millbury. PA, where Daisy has opened the business of her dreams, A notions and related antique store. She loves to attend the local auction looking for items to put in her store. One morning as they are arriving at the auction, they find the police hauling off the auctioneer, Angus, off in handcuffs. It seems that Jimmy Krantz has been found brutally beaten to death. Jimmy has allegedly stolen some valuable fountain pens that were to be auctioned off. What with Jimmy and Angus having been drinking the night before and that Angus' hands had injuries that would be consistent with the victims injuries and he is arrested for the murder. Even though Daisy knows Angus can have fits of temper, she doesn't feel that he is guilty. Then when you add that the detective might have reason to not look past Angus, Daisy knows she has to do some sleuthing. So with help of her fellow shopkeepers she starts to investigate.
A very enjoyable cast of characters and a beautiful little community add to the story.
I'm certainly looking forward to the next book in the series.
