In a charming new cozy mystery series from USA Today bestselling author Amy Lillard, twenty-something advice columnist Sissy is ready for a fresh start in the small town of Yoder, Kansas – along with her loyal Yorkie, Duke. She’s planning to help out at her aunt’s Sunflower Café, but little does she know her new duties will soon include solving a murder!

After Sissy’s rodeo cowboy boyfriend turns out to be more of a rodeo clown, she packs a bag; picks up her Yorkshire terrier Duke; and leaves Tulsa, Oklahoma, bound for her parents’ former hometown. There are still plenty of Yoders in Yoder, Kansas, including Sissy’s aunt Bethel, who owns the Sunflower Café but recently broke her leg. It’s a homecoming of sorts as Sissy arrives to help in the café and reunite with her pregnant cousin Lizzie. Plus she can continue to secretly write her newspaper advice column as seventy-year-old “Aunt Bess.” But it’s Sissy who could use some advice when she finds the milk deliveryman out behind the café with a knife in his back. As the sheriff’s prime suspect, it’s up to Sissy to catch the backstabber herself—before someone else gets creamed...

Praise for Dairy, Dairy, Quite Contrary

Praise for Amy Lillard’s Cozy Mysteries
 
“Kappy King, her word-of-the-day calendar (and the rest of her endearing quirks), her English sidekick Edie (and Edie’s special needs brother Jimmy—and their endearing quirks), and hunky detective Jack Jones return with all the wit and warmth readers have come to expect from this series. Lillard’s dry sense of humor, engaging characters, and on-point comedic timing are ideal for those looking for a book that makes them smile from the first page to the last.” —Hope by the Book on Kappy King and the Pie Kaper
 
“Kappy and Edie travel by buggy and car all over the valley attending everything from funerals to rock concerts while trying to figure out whether Sally June's death was accident or murder. Plenty of details about the Amish lifestyle and a more complex mystery.” —Kirkus Reviews on Kappy King and the Pickle Kaper
 
“With a hard to solve  mystery, two men that are crazy about our main sleuth, and a few older single women meeting for a book club, how could you not love this cozy?” —Fresh Fiction on Murder Between the Pages
 
"The book club ladies make a winning team in an amusing tale replete with down-home atmosphere and romance." —Kirkus Reviews on A Murder Like No Author
 
“The likable characters and Edie's slow progress in re-embracing her Amish side will keep fans coming back for more.” —Publishers Weekly on Kappy King and the Pie Kaper
 
"A promising series debut, sometimes humorous, often puzzling, and peopled with believable characters." —Kirkus Reviews on Can’t Judge a Book By its Murder
