Summary: "125 all-new, soul-satisfying, easy recipes with a healthy spin from the New York Times bestselling author of Half Baked Harvest Super Simple. Half Baked Harvest Book 3 delivers more of Tieghan's trademark simple, wholesome decadence with 125 all-new recipes for food that everyone can feel good about. This time around, the recipes are just as easy as her last cookbook, Half Baked Harvest Super Simple, but they also bring a new, good-for-you feeling to the table. With a greater emphasis on balancing rich comfort with lighter ways of amping up flavor, Tieghan's signature style takes on a more health-conscious (or healthyish) attitude, such as swapping half of the pasta for a lasagna with zucchini ribbons. Tieghan is a pro at creating recipes to light up all your senses. The food here--including Crispy Baked Proscuitto Breakfast Cups, Giant Twisted Spinach and Artichoke Soft Pretzel, Oven-Baked Chicken Parmesan Melt, and Blueberry-Lavender Cake--doesn't just taste good. It's also fun to cook, makes the whole kitchen smell fantastic, and looks absolutely beautiful. Each recipe is accompanied by Tieghan's stunning photography that brings the food to life and transports you to her cozy kitchen in the snowy Colorado mountains"--

Summary: "Loni Murrow is an accomplished bird artist at the Smithsonian who loves her job. But when she receives a call from her younger brother summoning her back home to help their obstinate mother recover after an accident, Loni's neat, contained life in Washington, DC, is thrown into chaos, and she finds herself exactly where she does not want to be. Going through her mother's things, Loni uncovers scraps and snippets of a time in her life she would prefer to forget--a childhood marked by her father Boyd's death by drowning and her mother Ruth's persistent bad mood. When Loni comes across a single, cryptic note from a stranger--"There are some things I have to tell you about Boyd's death"-- she begins a dangerous quest to discover the truth, all the while struggling to reconnect with her mother and reconcile with her brother and his wife, who seem to thwart her at every turn. To make matters worse, she meets a man in Florida whose attractive simple charm threatens everything she's worked toward. Pulled between worlds--her professional accomplishments in Washington, and the small town of her childhood--Loni must decide whether to delve beneath the surface into murky half-truths and either avenge the past or bury it, once and for all. The Marsh Queen explores what it means to be a daughter and how we protect the ones we love. Suzanne Feldman, author of Sisters of the Great War, writes that "fans of Delia Owens and Lauren Groff will find this a wonderful and absorbing read.""--

Toni and Agatha are in the car on the way to Officer Bill Wong's long-awaited wedding when, much to their shock, a naked young man bursts through a hedge on the side of the road and comes running toward them. Terrified, he explains that he has just seen a dead body in the woods. Toni lends him an old t-shirt to cover himself, Agatha calls the police, and the young man takes them to the spot where he saw the body, across from a meadow where the Mircester Naturist Club is due to have its annual summer barbecue. The young man, Edward, explains that he is the club's social convenor and had arrived early to set things up. He says he found the body at the edge of the woods, near an ancient stone known as The Lone Warrior and said to have once been used as a sacrificial altar. When they reach the spot, however, there is nothing on the large, flat rock except a small wet patch. Even that has dried up by the time the police arrive, and Chief Inspector Wilkes accuses Agatha of wasting police time on a prank. But Agatha and Toni grow suspicious after meeting some of the club's members, whose diverse interests range from artisanal ice cream to ancient curses. And when another disappearance occurs, it's up to them to put together the pieces... or end up on the altar themselves"--
