Scene of the Brine

The national bestselling author of The Pickled Piper and License to Dill returns with a dilly of a pickle. Business is booming at Piper's Picklings in Cloverdale, New York.

After their unscrupulous accountant finds some dirt on Sugar, the family quickly urges Jeremy to throw her out like rotten fruit.
Things are further spoiled after the accountant is found poisoned, and all evidence points to Sugar's teen-aged son, Zach. With the Porter family determined to avoid scandal, it won't be easy for Piper to preserve Zach's innocence. And after someone falls victim to a poisoned jar of some of her brandied cherries, Piper's got a peck of trouble to deal with herself. Includes recipes!
