Synopsis

Our 85th issue is quite the treat—three original tales by three top authors, a time-travel story, a fantasy bar story, two novels, and more! I leave it to you to explore this issue and find out what’s what, which is whose, and whodunit. (Or did they?) It’s a fun issue and one of our best.

    🚜 The annual Harvest Hollow County Fair is the highlight of the rural calendar, but this year's festivities turn fatal when the wealthy land developer determined to buy up local farms wins the grand prize for his oversized pumpkin—and then drops dead after taking a celebratory bite of the award-winning pie. The prime suspect is farmer and amateur baker Daisy Miller, whose family recipe was used in the fatal dessert. With her farm on the line and the community turning against her, Daisy must work with her border collie, Biscuit, and a skeptical agricultural inspector to uncover the truth. She soon discovers the developer had more enemies than there are seeds in a sunflower, from struggling farmers facing foreclosure to hidden family connections and long-buried secrets about the town's founding. Can Daisy plow through the lies and uncover the real killer before the fairgrounds empty for good and her farm becomes just another plot for development?

    If the past comes knocking, will you dare to answer? 
    When Detective Chief Inspector John Shadow is called to Kirkdale Castle to investigate the death of a handsome racehorse trainer during a shooting party, he’s immersed in painful childhood memories. His father had been shot in the line of duty at Kirkdale, but his killer was never apprehended. Shadow suspects the two deaths may be linked and is determined to discover the truth, but dealing with the aristocracy is more complicated than he bargained for and the inhabitants of Kirkdale Castle are as unhelpful as ever. 
    John Shadow is a man of contradictions. A solitary figure who notices the smallest detail about other people, but endeavours to avoid their company. A lover of good food, but whose fridge is almost always empty. Though he would prefer to work alone, he is assisted by his eager partner Sergeant Jimmy Chang. 
    Can the men work together through the web of deceit and corruption to find the killer, clear an innocent man’s name, and solve the mystery clouding Shadow’s past?
