Peach Clobbered
A Georgia B&B Mystery

Nina Fleets life ought to be as sweet as a Georgia peach. Awarded a tidy sum in her divorce, Nina retired at forty-one to a historic Queen Anne house in quaint Cymbeline, Georgia. But Ninas barely settled into her new B&B-to-be when a penguin shows up on her porchor, at least, a man wearing a penguin suit. Harry Westcott is making ends meet as an ice-cream shops mascot and has a letter from his great-aunt, pledging to leave him the house...too bad thats not what her will says. Meanwhile, the Sisters of Perpetual Poverty have lost their lease. Real-estate developer Gregory Bainbridge intends to turn the convent into a golfing community, so Cymbelines mayor persuades Nina to take in the elderly nuns. And then Nina finds the penguin again, this time lying in an alley with a kitchen knife in his chest. A peek under the beak tells Nina its not Harry inside the costume but Bainbridge. What was he doing in Harrys penguin suit? Was the developer really the intended victim, or did the culprit mean to kill Harry? Whoever is out to stop Harry from contesting the sale of his great-aunts house may also be after Nina, so she teams up with him to cage the killer before someone clips her wings.
