Some Like It Hawk by Director Of Therapy Research Donna Andrews
Meg Langslow is plying her blacksmith's trade at Caerphilly Days, a festival inspired by the town's sudden notoriety as The Town That Mortgaged Its Jail. The lender has foreclosed on all Caerphilly's public buildings, and all employees have evacuated - except one. Phineas Throckmorton, town clerk, has been barricaded in the courthouse basement for over a year. But the lender seems increasingly determined to evict him, and may succeed after one of its executives is found shot, apparently from inside the basement. Meg and her fellow townspeople suspect that someone hopes to end the siege by framing Mr. Throckmorton. Meg soon deduces that the killer isn't just trying to end the siege but to conceal information that would help the town reclaim its buildings.
The Meg Langslow mysteries, including Stork Raving Crazy and Swan for the Money, are written by Donna Andrews. She has won the Agatha, Anthony, and Barry awards, as well as a Romantic Times award for best debut novel, two Lefty Bromberg Awards, and two Toby Bromberg Awards for funniest mystery. Andrews is a self-described nerd who can rarely be spotted away from her computer unless she's tinkering in the yard. She currently resides in Reston, VA. Bernadette has been honored to narrate the work of Margaret Atwood, Joyce Carol Oates, Shirley Jackson, and Anne Rice, to mention a few. She has won more than a dozen Audiofile Earphones Awards and is a three-time Audie candidate.
In the nonfiction section, she has Ayn Rand's philosophy as well as Barbara Walters' and Katharine Hepburn's memoirs. Memoirs of a Geisha, The Devil Wears Prada, and the Betty Smith classic A Tree Grows in Brooklyn are all popular choices. Bernadette is a New York-based actress who studied at the Royal National Theater in London.
