<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Includes excerpts from Owls well thatn ends well and No nest for the wicket.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Every year, Yorktown, Virginia, relives its role in the Revolutionary War by celebrating the anniversary of the British surrender in 1781. This year, plans include a re-enactment of the original battle and a colonial craft fair. Meg Langslow has returned to her home town for the festivities--and to sell her wrought-iron works of art. Except, of course, for the pink-painted flamingos she reluctantly made for her mother's best friend--she's hoping to deliver them secretly, so she won't get a reputation as the blacksmith who makes those cute wrought-iron flamingos. <p/>Besides, she has taken on another responsibility--making sure none of her fellow crafters ruin the historical authenticity of the fair with forbidden modern devices--like wrist watches, calculators, or cell phones. She's only doing it to keep peace with the mother of the man she loves. And Michael himself will don the white-and-gold uniform of a French officer for the re-enactment--what actor could resist a role like that? <p/>Meg's also trying to keep her father from scaring too many tourists with his impersonation of an 18th century physician. And to prevent a snooping reporter from publishing any stories about local scandals. Not to mention saving her naive brother, Rob, from the clutches of a con man who might steal the computer game he has invented. It's a tough job--at least, until the swindler is found dead, slain in Meg's booth with one of her own wrought-iron creations. <p/>Now Meg must add another item to her already lengthy to do list: Don't forget to solve the murder! <p/>Fortunately, the more trouble Meg faces, the more fun the reader will have--and Meg faces plenty of trouble in this lighthearted and funny novel.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Donna Andrews</b> is the author of the Meg Langslow mysteries, including <i>Murder with Peacocks</i> and <i>Swan for the Money</i>.
