The Body in the Trees is the 62nd book in the Murder, She Wrote series. The entire book, plot, and characters kept me engaged. The authors did a terrific job weaving the main storyline and several smaller ones together. The characters are wonderfully crafted, realistically written. The book was full of twists, turns, red herrings, and shifts in direction. I enjoyed Jessica’s methodical sleuthing and how everything wrapped up.

The mystery was layered, with not only the murder but also a string of happenings around town. The suspects were believable, and I was surprised by the final reveal.

The newest entry in the USA Today bestselling Murder, She Wrote series.
It’s leaf-peeping season in Cabot Cove, but for someone, it’s killing season!
A quartet of friends from Florida have come to Maine to experience a New England autumn, complete with hiking in the woods and fishing. When one of them goes missing, the town rallies to find the presumably lost but otherwise safe tourist. But when newspaper editor Dan Andrews is biking on the trail along a ridge, he looks down and sees a leg caught in the branches of a tree. Count on Jessica Fletcher to uncover the secret reason the victim came to town . . . and how it led to her murder.
