War and Peas (Jane Jeffry Mysteries No. 8)

About this book

Wealthy old Auguste Caspar Snellen the legendary Pea King is long gone but his greatest legacy lives on: the Snellen Museum an institution dedicated to the glorification of local lore and legumes. But at this years annual Pea Festival the museum sustains a terrible loss when its able innovative director Regina Price Palmer is shot to death during a noisy reenactment of a Civil War battle. Suburban single mom Jane Jeffrey was a costumed participant in the deadly pageant. Now her part-time work at the museum has put Jane and best friend Shelley Nowack in the midst of a veritable podful of murder suspects. And its up to Jane and Shelley to determine who fatally beaned poor Regina--before another victim is planted six feet under.
