More About This Book

Overview

National bestselling author Tamar Myers causes a stampede of trouble!

Magdalena Yoder may be finally married to big-time Manhattan doctor Gabriel Rosen, but she's still a small-town girl at heart, and thrilled to emcee the first annual Hernia Holstein Competition. Until someone clobbers the contest's originator and both Gabe and his daughter Alison go missing. Now Magdalena vows to track down clues until the cows—and her family—come home.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly
Myers's 15th Pennsylvania Dutch cozy (after 2007's Hell Hath No Curry) will mainly appeal to established fans who have become fond of series heroine Magdalena Yoder, the Mennonite mayor of Hernia, Pa. Yoder has finally married her love interest, Dr. Gabriel Rosen, but their honeymoon is short-lived; between the interference of a stereotypical meddling Jewish mother-in-law and an escaped murderer, she finds her hands full. The inn she manages, the PennDutch, has been booked for a cow competition, but an assault on one of the judges gives Yoder yet another problem to deal with. Yoder's broad sense of humor and high self-regard won't endear her to everyone.

    Tamar Myers did it again!

    This was another great story in the Pennsylvania Dutch series. I love her characters and story-lines. Magdalena makes me laugh out loud and the mystery keeps me guessing until the end! A great cozy mystery and a wonderful read.

    this series jumped the shark

    the series jumped the shark two books ago. i picked this one up in the vain hope that ms. myers might try to pull it all together and stop with the convoluted "family" relationships. wrong. it just made everything worse and this is the last myers book i'll ever read.

    it's really too bad, the first penndutch books were nice, light and breezy books that were entertaining.

    delightful amateur sleuth

    The day Magdalena has always been waiting for has finally come and now she is six hours into her honeymoon with Gabe Rosen, a doctor from New York City who came to Hernia Holstein to get away from the pressure. Unfortunately, his possessive mother Ida calls them on their honeymoon. When the phone rings again Magdalena thinks it is Ida, but it turns out to the warden at the state penitentiary he tells her a murderer escaped. He is the ex-chief of police of Hernia who targets her family. --- The honeymoon ends abruptly because Magdalene wants to make sure her loved ones are protected and because she wants to make sure everything is ready for the guests who are coming in for the first Hernia Holstein competition. The originator of the contest Doctor Shador is beaten up and can¿t remember who hurt him. Magdalena gets Gabe to judge the contest but soon after that he and Magdalena¿s step-daughter Alison disappear. Magdalena rounds up a posse to find them. --- AS THE WORLD CHURNS is as tasty as shoofly pie. This is a delightful mystery due to the characters, especially the secondary and recurring ones. Although ¿Monster-in-Law¿ is obviously not a new relationship concept, Ida as the mother in law from hell is Magdalena¿s worst enemy as she came to town to find Gabe which results in keeping the storyline fresh. Tamar Myers has quite a few shocks in store for the reader. These surprises will change Magdalene¿s thoughts about herself and everybody will not see the final surprise coming because the protagonist never thought it could happen. --- Harriet Klausner
