The stories take place at a tourist town on the Western Coast of Michigan, the "fruit belt" where there are many farms raising fruits. The heroine, Marlee Jacob (her mother, an English Ph.D candidate at the time of her labor around Christmas, loved Dickens) is the owner of a Berry Basket store which sells everything made of berries.

It is amazing how many different kind of berries there are.

So far, the first three books take place in the summer during different festivals and our heroine "manages" to find bodied and get involved in solving the crime.

In the second book Marlee got to adopt a parrot with a rich vocabulary, the favorite is the Beach Boys ba-ba-ba-ra..

I really enjoy their dialogues: "give me a kiss," "give me a cashew" and others.

Many characters that are believable and lovable.
