About the Book
Lemonade.
Corn dogs.
Strawberry shortcake.
Veggies?
The Bloomsberry Cucumber Festival is under way, and Lindy plans to avoid all vegetables, as usual. But then she ends up with a plateful of Granny Goose's slimy, disgusting stewed cucumbers.
And a mystery.
How did a valuable stolen locket end up buried in cucumber sludge?
Granny Goose is a wacky lady, but Lindy knows she'd never steal from anyone. So, with best friend Margaret and know-it-all Gus Kinnard, Lindy sets out to find out who's behind the frame-up.
Can the threesome work together? And can they untangle the mess of clues fast enough to save Granny Goose—and collect a hefty reward?
