Restaurateur Robbie Jordan is ready for the boost in business a local music festival brings to South Lick, Indiana, but the beloved event strikes a sour note when one of the musicians is murdered . . .
June’s annual Brown County Bluegrass Festival at the Bill Monroe Music Park in neighboring Beanblossom is always a hit for Robbie’s country store and café, Pans ‘N Pancakes. This year, Robbie is even more excited, because she’s launching a new bed and breakfast above her shop. A few festival musicians will be among Robbie’s first guests, along with her father, Roberto, and his wife, Maria. But the celebration is cut short when a performer is found choked to death by a banjo string. Now all the banjo players are featured in a different kind of lineup. To clear their names, Robbie must pair up with an unexpected partner to pick at the clues and find the plucky killer before he can conduct an encore performance . . .

My thoughts
The Brown County Bluegrass Festival is about to begin and Robbie’s parents are visiting. She is excited as the renovations on the 2nd floor as a B&B are coming along.
Sitting in the audience waiting on her boyfriend, Abe O’Neill’s band to get ready to play. Things heat up between Abe and Pia but the show goes on. The police, inform Robbie that Pia has been found on the Beanblossom Covered Bridge strangled with a guitar string that night.
There are twists that make Robbie look good for the next victim. What will happen and can she be saved?
I enjoyed Robbie and seeing her parents show up was a nice surprise. A great read. I have not read all the books in the series but I did not feel like I was lacking any information.
