I love Meg and her crazy family! Usually I get annoyed and bored when a book takes 30-40% before it gets to the murder, but not this series. I'm hooked right away. 

This book has them in a reenactment fair. Meg is just trying to sell her products and keep the fair moving to help stay on her boyfriends mom's good side. Of course, nothing can be easy.

Between trying to keep the authenticity police from fining the socks off the vendors, running her booth, dealing with a new cop in town, and finding the murder, Meg has her hands full! Plus, Michael is pushing for the relationship talk, eeek!
