This is a delightful new cozy mystery that grabs your attention from the first page. I enjoyed getting to know all of the characters in Apple Springs. From Hope, the new (and first female) pastor at Faith Chapel Episcopal Church to her sister-in-law, members of Hope’s congregation to a much-despised Stanley King to Bethann, a former lead singer in a 60s girl band, you will be entertained. There are twists and turns as you follow Hope as she struggles to prove her innocence and discover the person who killed Stanley. This is a good start to a new series and I hope I will have an opportunity to go on more adventures with Hope and the delightful people of Apple Springs.
