These books are great fun! If you've never come across a Maggody book, do yourself a favor and indulge.

The Maggody Chief of Police is Arly Hanks, the long suffering daughter of Ruby Bee (who insists on aiding and abetting on her own terms). The series follows a pretty set cast of recurring chartacters, including some of the most interesting personalities you'll ever read about. The fun comes more from the efforts to solve the mystery rather than from the mystery itself.

Much Ado - A bank teller/son-of-a-playboy goes up in flames. Everyone has their own theories (Mayor Jim Bob thinks it's the Commies), but Arly is determined to "discover who cooked up this case of downhome murder."

Great Fun!
