About this listen
It’s Hammer Time!
Old habits die hard—but old lounge chairs die harder.
Val knows she can’t solve all the world’s problems, so she’s settled on two: smashing every tacky figurine on the planet…and ridding the universe of her boyfriend’s hideous vinyl recliner.
During a neighborhood yard sale, the fate of Tom’s beloved chair comes down to a wager. But what Val antes up in exchange proves hard to live without, and soon has her wrestling the demons she keeps locked in her closet—both literally and figuratively.
With an old nemesis breathing down her back and a dear friend missing in action, Val soon finds herself jonesing for more than ordinary justice.
Who’ll win the battle of wills? Who’ll lose? And who in the world is Sir Albert Snoggles, III?Come along for the ride as Val’s “Hammer of Justice” lays waste to atrocities of both the ceramic and non-ceramic kind—and the gang learns that when you mess around with Karma, just who ends up dealing the final blow is anybody’s guess.
If you like wacky, deeply flawed characters and laugh-out-loud situations, you’ll love Figure Eight! It’s the eighth installment in Margaret Lashley’s hilarious Val Fremden Midlife Mystery Series.

After 50 years of bumbling around on the planet, Val Fremden’s got nothing to show for her life but a long string of dead-end jobs and a two-digit bank balance. But just as she’s about to toss her champagne dreams and caviar wishes into the dumpster, Val discovers that Marco Shamway—the jerk who plagued her all through high school—is now a millionaire. Worse yet, the idea that catapulted Marco to fame and fortune was one he’d stolen … from her!

Is Mothman real, or just another fly-by-night tourist scam? The truth is out there … way WAY out there in this deliciously snarky humorous mystery. Growing up in backwoods Florida, Bobbie Drex has seen it all – from two-headed turtles to two-timing boyfriends. Her life of hard knocks has left her short on cash, but she’s still packing enough snark to give any whack-job a run for his money. Or so she thinks. But when a mysterious stranger arrives at her mechanic shop seeking repairs to his rundown RV, suddenly it’s Bobbie who’s in for a complete overhaul...

Nina Fleet’s life ought to be as sweet as a Georgia peach. Awarded a tidy sum in her divorce, Nina retired at 41 to a historic Queen Anne house in quaint Cymbeline, Georgia. But Nina’s barely settled into her new B&B-to-be when a penguin shows up on her porch...or, at least, a man wearing a penguin suit. Harry Westcott is making ends meet as an ice-cream shop’s mascot and has a letter from his great-aunt, pledging to leave him the house...too bad that’s not what her will says. Meanwhile, the Sisters of Perpetual Poverty have lost their lease.

Story
Hello. My name is Stevie Cartwright, and I've been witchless for 30 days. If only there was a support group for down-on-their-luck ex-witches who've had their powers slapped right out of them (literally). Just as I was licking my wounds after returning to my hometown of Ebenezer Falls, Washington, and navigating my suddenly nonmagical existence with the help of my familiar, Belfry, things got sticky. Enter an ex-spy and newly departed spirit named Winterbottom, who's infiltrated my life with his sexy British accent and a couple of requests....

When Luther signals a find, Jazz is stunned to see the body of a young woman.

Ever come across a situation that simply wasn't right - where someone was getting the dirty end of the stick and you wished you could make things right but didn't know how? Fourteen-year-old Jack knows how. Or rather he's learning how. He's discovering that he has a knack for fixing things. Not bikes or toys or appliances - situations...It all starts when Jack and his best friends, Weezy and Eddie, discover a rotting corpse - the victim of ritual murder - in the fabled New Jersey Pine Barrens. Beside the body is an ancient artifact carved with strange designs.

Story
It's been said that all great literature boils down to one of two stories—a man takes a journey, or a stranger comes to town. While mystery writers have been successfully using both approaches for generations, there's something undeniably alluring in the nature of a stranger: the uninvited guest, the unacquainted neighbor, the fish out of water. In the newest collection of stories by the Mystery Writers of America, each author weaves a fresh tale surrounding the eerie feeling that comes when a stranger enters our midst, featuring stories by prolific mystery writers.

Another winner
Margaret Lashley has done it again with the latest installment in her Val Fremden Midlife Mysteries series. As in the newer installments, this one too is a laugh out loud party. I highly recommend this book and series to cozy mystery fans.

Finally
I love the series. I more love the friends over Val. She for some reason drives me nuts. But not so nuts I can’t stop listening. I’m just happy he got a little taste of her stubbornness, controlling, and just having to learn. Love the series.

love the way Val tried to solve her own joke that was played on her. I didn't even figure it out til it was reviled.
Can't express how much I love Margaret's writing. I love solving mysteries. Her books are extremely entertaining.

Love her humor
This is another great book by Margaret. She continues to make me laugh when Val has the silliest things happen to her. I love how she is slowly changing from book to book….maturing and growing more patient.
