Publisher's summary

Besides the annual Turkey Trot 5K on Thanksgiving Day, Lucy expects the approaching holiday to be a relatively uneventful one - until she finds beautiful Alison Franklin dead and frozen in Blueberry Pond. No one knows much about Alison, except that she was the daughter of the wealthy investor Ed Franklin and struggled quietly with drug addiction. Police blame her death on an accidental overdose, but Lucy can't understand what terrible forces could have led the privileged woman to her watery ruin.

Alison's funeral service is just as puzzling. Many believe Ed's young - and very pregnant - new wife, Mireille, divided the family, leaving Alison to wither on the vine. Did Mireille truly adore her stepchild as Ed claims, or did she pit father against daughter for personal gain?

As a state of unrest descends on Tinker's Cove, Lucy is thrown into a full-scale investigation. Now, in a race against time, Lucy must beat the killer to the finish line - or she can forget about stuffing and cranberry sauce.

Can’t we stick to mystery

I had read several of Meier’s earlier books and loved them. The last 2 I read had a lot of “political” policy issues that is well and good but I don’t want them a part of the book I am ready. I read for pleasure not to be reminded of policy issues.
That is just my opinion.

Outstanding

Leslie Meier is a great writer. This is a very long series and she manages to keep it fresh and relavent. I enjoy the way she weaves in current themes while staying true to her characters. I look forward to the next book.

Wish you would just do a straightforward murder mystery without the politics

I disliked all the references to Mexicans and Mexicans bringing drugs into the United States, it just sounded respectful and prejudiced. Maybe it got better or maybe she was trying to make some other point but I just couldn’t make it past the first couple of chapters. I’m also, wishing that when she does different voices, she doesn’t make them sound like New York accent just for no reason. It wasn’t interesting enough to be able to just plow my way through the opioid crisis when I wanted a murder mystery.

Got to Chapter 5 and then deleted.

I was enjoying the book until I reached the politics. Not what I want in a murder/mystery, who done it book. I like to leave current day politics on the doorstep where they belong, underfoot. I read for enjoyment, highly charged political subjects...I do not enjoy.
