Search - Revenge of the Wrought-Iron Flamingos (Meg Langslow, Bk 3)

Third in the series. The titles are geting more creative, as are the settings and plots. This one takes place at a Civil War re-enactment in Meg's hometown and is filled with wild antics and crazy characters the way the last two were. This is quickly becoming my favorite series.

I find this series really funny. On this book, Meg is selling her iron works during a Yorktown recreation.

Ornamental blacksmith Meg, her boyfriend, and their extended families have dressed up in costume for a reenactment of the siege of Yorktown, complete with cannons and crafts fair. Her father, a doctor, is running the first aid booth, and to serve as an educational tool, he has fixed it up to look like a medical tent of 1781, down to the last gory detail. Meg has some modern pink flamingos hidden under the counter, and when a murder is committed with one of them, she and her friends head the list of suspects.

Meg Langslow stumbles upon murders, and then is compelled to solve them.

She's surrounded by a town filled with very eccentric people (most of whom are related to her).

This is a fun addition to a series, and each book stands on its own. Not literally, you know, story-wise....

I enjoy all her characters and the new ones who try to understand how related everyone in town is. Can't wait to read another of Donna Andrews.
