My Review:

This is the second Jessica Fletcher novel by Jon land, and I liked it even more than the first. First of all, the “Tup” is back. Amos Tupper shows up in this one in modern-day and as a detective in a mystery that goes way back into Jessica’s past when Frank was still alive. It was wonderful hearing some of the backstories on Jessica, Amos, Frank, and Grady and finding out about the very first murder she ever solved as a substitute teacher. I enjoyed this book from beginning to end. The body count in this one was a little high, but I was riveted to the unfolding of the mystery and getting to visit with some of my favorite characters.
