Peachy Scream is the second installment in the Georgia B&B series set in Cymbeline, GA and featuring innkeeper Nina Fleet. Nina is looking forward to the annual Shakespearean Festival and hosting the acting troupe that will be headlining with their production of Hamlet, on the town square: that is until the bus carrying the troupe arrives being driven by none other than Harry Westcott, the man still claiming to be the rightful owner of Nina's beautiful Queen Anne home.
The dissension between the actors is apparent from the minute they disembark the bus. The six members of the troupe include Len Marsh and his trophy wife Susie, millionaire Marvin Lasky, Professor Tessa Benedict and her husband Bill and the transgender Chris Boyd and they are all being directed by Harry. It only takes a day before Nina discovers Len dead in her hedgerow, a glass of her welcome peach mimosa not far from his body.
Determined that the show must go on and the reputation of her B&B at stake, Nina sets out with the help of Harry to uncover a killer. An entertaining plot with a quirky cast of characters, I was able to identify the killer early on but enjoyed the banter and growing relationship between Nina and Harry. I was very happy that the author did not have Nina explaining to everyone how to pronounce her name in this addition to the series (thank you). I will look forward to more adventures with Nina, Harry and the delightful Mattie.
