Three weeks before Thanksgiving, bookshop owner Addie Greyborne already has a full plate-and a killer on her case...Addie? determined to turn a seemingly ordinary November in coastal Greyborne Harbor into one for the books. The windows of her shop display carefully curated works by American writers, including a rare selection of traditional holiday recipes from the influential 19th-century publication Godey? Ladies Magazine. And then there? the town? Civil War-era themed cooking and baking competition, with a hefty cash prize and free publicity going to the winning dish...But when she finds her cousin? boyfriend murdered, a stunned Addie reluctantly realizes she may be the only person who can blow the cover off a grisly crime. With so many unanswered questions surrounding the victim? death, Addie must figure out the strange connection between a mysterious vintage briefcase, the disappearance of a first edition copy of Sarah Josepha Hale? famous nursery rhyme, ?ary Had a Little Lamb,?and a dangerously well-read culprit...
