First in the Farmer's Market Mystery Series.
Becca Robins leads a simple life, making jams and preserves on her very own farm. But when there's a murder in her quaint little town, she puts herself in the line of fire to defend her friend's innocence-and goes from making jam to being in one.
I enjoyed this book quite a bit more than I thought I would, based on recommendations/reviews by fellow cozy lovers. I found the characters to be likeable, although the protagonist was a bit proud - humility is a bit more attractive in a character, imho. Sense of place was excellent and I had no trouble imagining the farm community in South Carolina. I figured out whodunit early on in the story but I still enjoyed reading through to the end. I'm looking forward to the next one in the series.
