The Body in the Birches is the 22nd in the Faith Fairchild series by Katherine Hall Page. It has recently dropped to $1.99 at Amazon US, not quite sure why or for how long.
Strangely enough, this is the most recent title - unusual for the recent ones to go on sale. A new one in the series is due out soon though, so maybe that's the reason. In any case, I'm hoping this means HarperCollins will cycle through putting these on sale - although I hope I didn't miss the 21st, since the 20th (last month, sadly now back up to $6.99) was the last one I saw on sale.
Anyway, here is info:

At home on Sanpere Island, Maine, caterer and amateur sleuth Faith Fairchild discovers that real estate can be murder, especially when it’s all in the family, in this twenty-third book in the popular mystery series.
The Fourth of July is one of the hottest on record and even the breeze off Penobscot Bay can’t seem to cool things down for Faith Fairchild and the rest of the folks on Sanpere Island. But the fireworks are just beginning. After the celebrations are over, Faith discovers a body in the woods near The Birches, an early twentieth-century “cottage.”
The body is identified as The Birches’ housekeeper, who seems to have succumbed to a heart attack. The death is only one of the dramatic events upending the historic house. A family gathering has been called to decide who will inherit the much loved, and very valuable, estate that has been in the Proctor family for generations. With this much money involved, it’s just a matter of time before trouble arises.
Faith is juggling her own family problems. Her teenage son, Ben, has started a new job as a dishwasher at The Laughing Gull Lodge—learning things that could land him in very hot water. And her daughter Amy is worried about her new friend, Daisy Proctor. Daisy is terrified—convinced that someone is trying to eliminate her mother from getting a share of The Birches. To protect her children, Faith has to find a possible murderer—before he strikes too close to her own home.
