Bestselling and award-winning mystery author Ed Lynskey introduces a new cozy mystery series set in the small town of Cat’s Paw, Virginia. Plucky and resourceful, Juno Patchen runs her family truck farm in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Southwestern Virginia. She sells her produce at the Farmers’ Market held weekly in the nearby small town of Cat’s Paw. Her athletic cousin and godmother Fern McPhee and outspoken mother Rhoda McPhee assist Juno while her seven-year-old son Chip pitches in. The lurid murder of Clay Prestwick, a retiree and town neighbor, throws everybody into a tizzy, none moreso than the befuddled Sheriff Goose Dixon who wants to marry Juno. He persuades her to lend him a hand in solving Clay’s homicide. Juno’s ex Holt Patchen, an aspiring country music star, remains a thorn in her side. Told with verve and humor, Berried Past offers cozy mystery readers a picturesque mountain setting, a colorful cast of characters, and a satisfying whodunit mystery.
