All in all, a truly delightful read, Murder with Peacocks was well worth the disruption into my to-be-read pile. Choose from Same Day Delivery, Drive Up or Order. This is a classic traditional mystery story with tons of wacky characters, lots of fun and a bit of romance thrown in to spice things up.

To top it all off, her armchair detective father has roped her into investigating the death, putting both of their lives at risk. Somewhere in the middle of this crazy cast of characters and hectic wedding planning, Meg also has to contend with the disappearance (and later found dead) nasty former-sister-in-law of her mother's future husband. Andrew's main character is a frantic Meg Langslow who has somehow managed to get roped into spending her summer fulfilling the duties of maid of honor in not one, not two but THREE weddings: her best friend's, her brother's and her mother's.

Die Like an Eagle The brilliantly funny Donna Andrews delivers another winner in the acclaimed avian-themed series that mystery readers have come to. With the tons of books sitting on my bookshelf waiting to be read and reviewed, I was mildly guilt-ridden when I picked up Murder with Peacocks by Donna Andrews from my local library.
