Easter Bunny Murder/Leslie Meier/263 pages

We're back to Tinker's Cove, Maine, and a Lucy Stone mystery. The annual Easter egg hunt put on by local billionairess VV turns out to be a dud. With the town's children and their parents all lined up outside VV's estate, they are disappointed to hear from the butler that the hunt has been cancelled. The once luxorious grounds look untended. Noone has seen VV in months. Has the economy taken a toll on the finances of the 90-year-old? Then, the Easter Bunny appears hopping down the lawn! But shortly after openning the gates, he stumbles and falls. The costume head falls off and Van, VV's grandson, is revealed seconds before he dies.

Van's death is just the beginning. Another suspicious death, along with questionable financial dealings put Lucy Stone in the middle of yet another mystery.
