A cozy set in the idyllic town of Berrywick. Winter is upon the town and festivities planned for Christmas are in full swing. Julia on a walk did not expect to find a body, a victim of a hit and run apparently until proven otherwise. Julia discovers a pendant in the vicinity of the victim presuming it is his, until that too was proven to be not his. The second victim in similar circumstances, could not be a coincidence but trying to connect the dots and connections was a little complicated. One was a taxi driver, one was a bee keeper but like all good detectives, Julia begins to find the strands that will bring the story to a close. A third death by poisoning of a random (seemingly) woman, and the attempted poisoning of another makes it confusing for a while.
The final denouement was surprising and out of the blue.
Interesting story, mixed characters and very nice setting.
