About this ebook

From USA Today bestselling author Leslie Langtry comes another hilarious Merry Wrath Mystery!

 

Former CIA assassin turned Girl Scout Troop leader Merry Wrath, can't believe it's finally here—the Who’s There, Iowa mayoral showdown between the dull and clueless Mayor Van Meter, and uber-ambitious eleven-year old girl scout Ava. It’s a campaign like no other with a debate worthy of any three-ring circus!


To make matters worse, there’s disharmony among the teen druids at the Cult of NicoDerm, CIA assassin Hilly and fifth grader Betty get up to some questionable practices, and a political worker is thrown off the roof of Sugar Lip’s Feeling Lucky House of Delights Ice Cream Parlor. It doesn’t help at all when the mayor goes missing and many think Betty finally acted on her goal to kidnap him. As the authorities close in on Ava and Betty, can Merry solve the murder and find the mayor before the election…or will she be leading future scout meetings in juvie?

An 11 year old running for Mayor is silly enough, but with Betty as Ava's campaign manager? It was sure to be over the top. Plus the current Mayor disappears, something Betty has wanted to do for so long, so she's definitely on the suspect list. This was a truly funny story, and I really can't wait to see what happens next. It's sure to be eventful!

In Mayor For Murder, eleven year old girl scout Ava is running for mayor with Betty as her campaign manager. This well written mystery has all the shenanigans I have come to expect. It is an over the top campaign with an unusual debate and an interesting political platform. There is also unrest in the Cult of NicoDerm, a political worker is thrown from a roof, Hilly is on the scene, the mayor disappears and more. Merry has her work cut out for her to prove Betty is not responsible. There is never a dull moment in these books. I never have figure out who was guilty before Merry! Another fun read.
