Résumé
Teddy bear shop manager Sasha Silverman must step fast to find a murderer before an upcoming Scottish festival . . . It&’s springtime in Silver Hollow, Michigan, and Sasha is looking forward to the village&’s inaugural Highland Fling weekend.… Plans are underway for a Kilted 5K, athletic competitions, dancing, live music, and even a Hurl-the-Haggis contest. Meanwhile, Sasha&’s staff is busy crafting custom teddy bears in kilts for the Silver Bear Shop&’s vendor booth. But trouble&’s brewing behind the scenes, as the obnoxious Teddy Hartman, former owner of a rival teddy bear company, sows seeds of discord about town, targeting Sasha&’s family and their business. Things go from plaid to worse when—just a week before the festival kicks-off—the disgruntled gossip is found murdered with an ax buried in his back. Sasha&’s dad is arrested, since he&’s a champion ax-thrower. But she doesn&’t give a dram what it looks like—Sasha knows that despite the old business rivalry with Hartman, her father is innocent. So with a spot of help from her friends, Sasha must bag the real killer before her first Fling also becomes her last.
