Nothing is what it seems in these ten âdeliciously subtle . . . Short, snappy mysteries that are full of unexpected plot twistsâ (Long and Short Reviews).  As the old saying goes, itâs the quiet ones you have to watch out for. And the unassuming characters in From Hay to Eternity have one thing in commonâtheyâre ready to go to unusual lengths to get what they want. From a family of vegetable farmers to a more-than-meets-the-eye beverage maker, the stories will take you into the minds of the overlooked and unseen. Ignore them at your own risk.  In âSuperstition,â a woman lives every day like itâs her lastâand not without good reason. âThe Chicken Pot Pie Fiascoâ shows just how badly Thanksgiving can go awry with too many cooks in the kitchen. A day of shopping and lunch takes a frightening turn for a young couple in âWaffling on Cherokee Street.â And in the title story, the fate of a farming family is changed forever by a seemingly innocent Halloween hayride.
