    About this ebook

    When antique pickers Sherri Green and Carol O’Brien get first dibs on the goods at a farm auction, one of them finds something more sinister. The missing farmer. Dead.

    Add a shady real estate agent and family and neighbors whose lives would be easier with the farmer out of the picture and you’ve got a puzzle that Sherri can’t help but piece together.

    Can Sherri and Carol along with the help of Deputy Leon Fletcher figure out who murdered the farmer? 

    Cotton Picking Murder is a clean, short read. It’s perfect for lovers of cozy mysteries that feature an amateur sleuth.

    Be sure to check out the rest of the books in the Antique Pickers in Paradise cozy mystery series:  book 1, Picked to Death; book 3, Picked On; book 4, Pick a Letter; and book 5, Fatal Pickings.

    There's more small town fun and crime solving in the close-knit community of Paradise.
