Revenge of the Wrought-Iron Flamingos

By: Donna Andrews

Narrated by: Bernadette Dunne

Yorktown, Virginia, is reliving its role in the Revolutionary War by celebrating the anniversary of the British surrender in 1781. This year, plans include a reenactment of the battle and a craft fair. Meg Langslow has returned to her home town for the festivities - and to sell her wrought-iron flamingos.

Meg's also trying to keep her father from scaring too many tourists with his impersonation of an 18th-century physician - not to mention saving her brother from the clutches of a con man who might steal the computer game he's invented. It's a tough job - until the swindler is found dead, slain in Meg's booth with one of her wrought-iron creations. Now Meg must add another item to her to-do list: Don't forget to solve the murder!

Much of the reenactor tidbits are real!

American Rev War, reenactors, Yorktown,Va, family-dynamics, cozy-mystery, amateur-sleuth, women-sleuths, law-enforcement, great fun!

Of course I loved this book, our family of seven were American Revolutionary War reenactors and we did visit Yorktown and Williamsburg! The good, the bad, and the ridiculous were such a great part of our brand of insanity. Well, except for the murder, which was investigated in a very entertaining way, of course. Great fun read!
One small spoiler caught my 2019 attention: a big deal was made of the obnoxious behavior by a MCP long before the present sensitivity.

Another fun listen from Donna Andrews

Fun-filled romp from the pen of Donna Andrews and voiced to perfection by Bernadette Dunn

How Could a Reenactment Go Wrong?

The town is hosting a reenactment of a battle from the Revolutionary War. Michael's mother is in charge and tasks Meg with convincing her friends and fellow crafters to come out and sell their wares, but they have to dress in period costume...Mrs. Waterston's orders. As the show goes to a ball hosted by Mrs. Waterston, Meg finds the body of a man in her tent and then has to find out who is really to blame for his death and how she ended up in the middle of the investigation. My family loved this story and laughed at some of the things that happened in the story.
