A troubling tail / by Cass, Laurie,author.;
"The charming town of Chilson, Michigan, is beautiful in the spring, and the bookmobile is delivering great reads far and wide on one of the first warm days of the year. But a chill sweeps through when they discover that one of their favorite patrons, the owner of Henika's Candy Emporium, has been found murdered. Although Minnie can't understand who could have had a motive to murder such a kind man, she decides that the sticky problem isn't hers to solve. However, when rumors start flying around town and the police have no leads, Minnie decides to throw her investigative hat into the ring. The more Minnie investigates, the less certain she is that the victim's past is as wholesome as his reputation. But Minnie has plenty of experience unearthing inconvenient truths, and she and Eddie won't rest until they determine how the victim met his bitter end"--

Legend of the ghost buck / by Walker, Lane,author.;
Boone Mason couldn't believe his eyes. He really does exist, he thought, as his left hand trembled on the bow. Thirty yards away was the biggest buck he'd ever seen. It was a moment he'd been waiting for all of his young life. Somehow, his quivering right hand found the bowstring. His heart hammered, and he struggled to slow his frantic breathing. Slowly, the enormous buck turned ... and looked directly at him. Boone held his breath. He froze. Had the buck spotted him? He hadn't had time to raise the bow and aim before the buck had spotted him. Now, if he moved an inch, the deer most certainly would bolt, and Boone would miss the opportunity of a lifetime. Tense seconds ticked past. The buck looked away. It was Boone's only chance ... the chance he'd been waiting for. Slowly, he raised the bow ... Was the crazy old man right? Is Boone just going to blow it and ruin everything? Or will this be a hunt that rewrites the record books and a small town?
