About this ebook
An Amish Bed and Breakfast Mystery with Recipes – PennDutch Mysteries #4
*Includes Recipes for “Magdalena Yoder’s Wedding Feast, from Soup to Nuts”*
“Bubbling over with mirth and mystery.” –Dorothy Cannell
“A delicious treat.” –Carolyn G. Hart
Magdalena Yoder is (finally!) getting married, and nothing is going to spoil her wedding; not the man-of-her-dreams’ loopy relatives, nor the twenty-year-old barrel of genuine Pennsylvania Dutch sauerkraut from her future father-in-law, which is not Mag’s idea of a great wedding present. Especially when it contains a body!
Of course, Magdalena recognizes the victim, who’s as well-preserved as a gherkin: It's her fiancé's cousin Sarah, who's been missing for 20 years. Magdalena's inn is filled with the eccentric aunts and crazy uncles of the deceased…And Magdalena suspects one of them is the killer. Now she’s in a pickle, blowing the lid off a mystery two decades old, and digging up a scandal that may shake her Amish hometown to the core and send her to a funeral—her own—instead of her wedding day!

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Another in the Pennsylvania Dutch Mystery series. This has Magdalena finally marrying Aaron. She receives a barrel of sauerkraut from her soon to be father-in-law as a wedding present. Unbeknownst to them however there is a body in the barrel as well as the kraut. This finds Magdalena trying to solve a 20 year old mystery as well as finish up the last minute preperations for her wedding that is less than a week away. As with all the Tamar Myers books this is filled with quirky characters. A nice fun read.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I needed to read this book for a couple of reading challenges. I had started this series years ago and with this one, I remember anew why I stopped. The mystery was good and I didn't guess the culprit at all. But her character is more annoying than amusing. She's always wailing about something and calling her man "pooky bear" was just too much to put up with for more than one book.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5First one I read, looking forward to starting from the beginning.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5What's worse than a barrel of sauerkraut for a wedding present from your future father-in-law? When there's a corpse in it.Only days before her wedding Magdalena Yoder is saddled with a house full of future in-laws and the sheriff is once again breathing down her neck. Mayhem and murder in Amish country - and another crop of tasty recipes, too.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Magdalena Yoder, the owner of the Penn-Dutch Inn is finally getting married. Not only is she busy planning her wedding, and dealing with her future husband's relatives who are staying at the Inn, but her future father-in-law gives her a barrel of sauerkraut as a wedding gift, which contains the remains of Aaron (the groom's) cousin who has been missing for 20 years. Magdalena doesn't want anything to spoil her wedding and tries to find the killer before the day of her wedding. As always, Myers fills the book with quirky characters, many of whom are suspects. Her books are laugh out loud funny, in fact, I'm still laughing over the last two pages!
