Publisher's summary

Another outrageous Maggody mystery, starring police chief Arly Hanks alongside a smooth-talking televangelist and a whole town full of sinners.

Some days, police chief Arly Hanks can't help but see Maggody, Arkansas, as little more than a cesspool of poverty, ignorance, and incest—the kind of glorified trailer park that gives the South a bad name. But hey, it's home. So when silver-tongued televangelist Malachi Hope swoops into town, with a revivalist laser light show and plans to build a Christian theme park, Arly worries her beloved, if crazy, neighbors are about to be swindled. But it's Malachi who should be terrified.

As the town whips itself into revival fever, it's all Arly can do to keep Maggody from coming apart at the seams. And when the girls' basketball coach is found dead, Arly can't help but suspect that the murder is related to Malachi's tent meetings. To save Maggody from itself, Arly will risk everything—in this world and the hereafter.

What Carl Hiaasen did for Florida, Joan Hess has done for the Ozarks. This is a hilarious look at small-town greed and the irresistible madness of Maggody, Arkansas.

Going Plum Crazy in Arkansas! 🤪

Praise the Lord, and Hallelujah!Another outrageous phenomena bites the dust in our lovely little fictional town of Maggody. But not before all hell breaks loose as well as, of course, a few dead bodies show up. Not to mention several near misses. Chief of Police 👮‍♀️ Arly Hanks certainly has her hands full in this one! Our favorite meddlers-in-crime Ruby Bee (Mother) and side kick Estelle jump in there as well, with some questionable, if not down right scary, consequences. You’ll just have to listen to this one to find out. The Excellent narration will make that thoroughly enjoyable! ☺️
