Homespun homicide / by Penney, Elizabeth,author.(CARDINAL)415330;
Pleasant Creek, Indiana's first annual summer arts and crafts fair has Liz Eckardt beaming. Tourists are coming out of the woodwork to get their hands on Amish-inspired goods and the Olde Mansion Inn, her bed-and-breakfast, is full to the rafters. But when sawbucks start disappearing from the vendors and Mayor Jackson Cross's furniture samples are marred, it's clear someone is trying to throw a monkey wrench into the festivities. Unfortunately, Jackson has bigger worries. His ex-employee is mad enough to spit nails and when he is found polished off, murdered with a distinctive table leg, Jackson becomes the prime suspect. Liz decides to investigate when she suspects that some of the guests under her roof are not on the level. And what about the family that has arrived in Pleasant Creek ostensibly looking to dust themselves off and make a fresh start? Are they who they seem to be or are they responsible for the sinister handiwork around town? Liz and the rest of the Material Girls will need all the tools of the trade to hammer out a solution to the crimes of Pleasant Creek before Jackson is sent to the Big House.(WorldCAT)

"Celeste Cabot has a flair for painting--and a touch of paranormal talent too. She's just arrived to sell her artwork at a big craft fair in North Carolina, complete with rides, games, and deep-fried everything. But the sunny landscape takes on a darker hue when her Chihuahua, Van Gogh, leads her to the riverbank--and to a body that was definitely not part of her design. With help from a handsome fellow artist, Celeste sets out to draw the brazen killer onto her canvas. She'll need to balance the victim's past, a suspected love triangle, and a long-ago accident--and also consult with a medium and a spirit--to try to paint a murderous fiend into a corner . . ."--Provided by publisher.
