This was a fun cozy novella, filled with suspense, romance, and murderous revenge.  Amos is the town's "cantankerous old coot", and when he was found shot in the head in the town square, it was not who might want to kill him, but who might NOT have wanted him dead.  He bullied everyone and was out to sue anyone and everyone.Lizzie is his granddaughter, and Amos was in the middle of a lawsuit trying to take away her home and lands.  These had been left to her by her grandmother---Amos' first wife. So was Lizzie a suspect?  Then Amos' second wife was so happy that he was dead---could it have been her?  Then somebody burned down the second wife's house. Suspects were showing up everywhere.The sherif and his partner in this small town, have actually enlisted Lizzie's help---and then her heart.  Cute short mystery.  There are three more books in this series, with book one leaving an opening for the second mystery to start right away.
