Tamar Myers

    Tamar Myers wuchs in Belgisch-Kongo auf, wo ihre Familie als Missionare bei einem Stamm lebte, der für seine einzigartigen Bräuche bekannt war. Das Aufwachsen in einer fremden, aber lebendigen Kultur prägte ihre einzigartige Perspektive, die von Abenteuer und Widerstandsfähigkeit geprägt war. Diese prägende Zeit, einschließlich einer turbulenten Abreise und des anschließenden Kulturschocks nach ihrer Rückkehr in die Vereinigten Staaten, verleiht ihrem Schreiben ein tiefes Verständnis für Vertreibung und Anpassung. Myers schafft fesselnde Erzählungen, die die Nuancen kultureller Begegnungen und die Stärke, die im Umgang mit stark unterschiedlichen Welten liegt, erforschen.

      A well-preserved corpseA twenty-year-old barrel of genuine Pennsylvania Dutch sauerkraut isn’t Magdalena Yoder’s idea of a great wedding present from her future father-in-law. Especially when it has a corpse in it. And it sure puts Mennonite-born Magdalena, owner of the picturesque PennDutch Inn, in a pickle. She has just one week before she ties the knot with the man of her dreams—and this bride of forty-four will allow nothing to delay her nuptials, even murder.Of course, Magdalena recognizes the victim, who is as well preserved as a gherkin. It’s her fiancé’s cousin Sarah, who’s been missing for years. Soon Magdalena’s inn is filled with unwanted guests—eccentric aunts and loopy uncles of the deceased. And Magdalena—shrewd as she is peppery—suspects one of them is the killer. Now she is over a barrel, blowing the lid off a mystery two decades old, and digging up a scandal that may shake her Amish hometown to the bedrock and send her to a funeral—her own—instead of her wedding day!
