Beautiful book, Great story! Meg Langslow . a working blacksmith is pregnant with twins when her husband Michael asks if she wouldnt mind having a houseguest. One of his doctoral students is directing his new translation of a play by a minor Spanish playwright, who has agreed to come to town for the production. Surely they can spare some room for such an important academic cause?

Señor Mendoza turns out to be a partygoer who loves to spend raucous evenings among adoring studentsat La Casa Langslow. Into this chaos arrives the dean of the English department, who insists the play be canceled. Then the unthinkable happens: The dean is found murdered, and Megs house has become a crime scene. Now its up to Meg to help Chief Burke solve the murders, rescue the students dissertation, make sure Michael doesnt lose tenure, and, while shes at it, give birth to twins. Encore! Encore!
