When her friend Abner is considered a suspect in the death of a new vendor at Bailey's Farmers Market, Becca doesn't believe he could be a killer and starts her own investigation.

I'm with Becca that Abner is an unlikely suspect. So what if the victim stole his high school girlfriend? High school was nearly fifty years ago for these men. A broken heart in high school may seem like the end of the world at the time, but most of us have gotten over that by the time we hit twenty. I might have believed this motive if the murder happened fifty days after the heart break, not fifty years.

Second, the murder weapon was found on his property. In a greenhouse that has no locks. Anyone can walk in there.

If the Monson police think they can make a case based in these things, perhaps they should visit a farm specialised in animal husbandry. General, those have more straws for them to grab at.

I didn't like Becca much as a character. When she asks people questions she thinks she is entitled to an honest answer. She is entitled to the "that's non of your business" remark, but no one gave her that. At least she's not entirely too stupid to live. She did call the police (conveniently to leave a voicemail message), before she walked into the woods.

The police officer responding to her call, however, seems too stupid to live. He broke through the door of a cabin (after hearing a shotgun) without making sure the people inside the cabin are not armed (and likely to kill him when entering). The unprofessionalism of the police continued from there: his colleague share personal information about officer Brion and at the information desk at the county courthouse / sheriff's office is a woman chewing gum while talking.
