Story4.5 out of 5 stars 206
Meg Langslow's summer is not going swimmingly. In her small Virginia hometown, she's the maid of honor at the nuptials of three loved ones - each of whom has dumped the planning in her hands. One bride is set on including a Native American herbal purification ceremony while another wants live peacocks on the lawn. But when an offensive newcomer, who hints at skeletons in the guests' closets, is found dead under suspicious circumstances, level-headed Meg's to-do list extends from flower arrangements and bridal registries to catching a killer - before the next event is her own funeral.

abridged
I was not very careful before I bought this. Other listeners should take note that unlike other of Braun's audiobooks, this one is abridged and it is not read by George Guidall, although the reader was fine.

Narrator was not a good choice
Inconsistent narration-- doing one Scottish voice for the tailor Scotty but not one for Chief Brody. The narrator's accented voice was inappropriate for the story and very distracting. However his voice is beautiful to listen to in general and I will look up other books narrated by him. Great story by Lilian Jackson Braun of course!
