Publisher's summary
Another "great" cozy mystery set in outrageous Maggody, Arkansas, a town so strange that even Hollywood filmmakers can't believe it's real (Library Journal).
From the Kwik-Stoppe-Shoppe to the Pot O' Gold Mobile Home Park, there isn't much glamour in Maggody...but this flyspeck Arkansas town is about to become famous. When a Hollywood production company chooses Maggody as a backdrop for an X-rated Ozarks Romeo and Juliet, the locals are starstruck. And as Maggody is flooded with washed-up actors, ruthless producers, and a cynical crew, the townsfolk will do anything for a close-up - even if it means resorting to murder.
Chief of Police Arly Hanks has no time for Hollywood - she's got her hands full with a local arsonist - but when one of the actors is found dead in a bathtub, she's forced to intervene. As the film spins out of control, Arly realizes that the citizens of Maggody will stop at nothing to get their fifteen minutes of fame-even as the town burns down around them.
In the spirit of David Mamet's State and Main, this delightful novel shows that when Hollywood collides with small-town values, the movie industry doesn't stand a chance.

Story
Stella Hardesty dispatched her abusive husband with a wrench shortly before her fiftieth birthday. A few years later, she's so busy delivering home-style justice on her days off, helping other women deal with their own abusive husbands and boyfriends, that she barely has time to run her sewing shop in her rural Missouri hometown. Some men need more convincing than others, but it's usually nothing a little light bondage or old-fashioned whuppin' can't fix. Since Stella works outside of the law, she's free to do whatever it takes to get the job done.

Story
Young widow Penelope Thornton-McClure and her old Aunt Sadie are making ends meet by managing a mystery book shop - a quaint Rhode Island landmark rumored to be haunted. Pen may not believe in ghosts, but she does believe in good publicity - like nabbing Timothy Brennan for a book signing. But soon after the bestselling thriller writer reveals a secret about the store's link to a 1940s murder, he keels over dead - and right in the middle of the store's new community events space. Who gives Mrs. McClure the first clue that it was murder?

Always funny, always enjoyable
This is my favorite “Cozy” mystery series, and Courtney Patterson’s reading brings even more to the story.
Can we please have her read the rest of the books??

More Crazy Fun!
In this installment of the Arly Hanks Mystery series, Murder and Mayhem abound in our little town of Maggody where “nothing ever happens” (ha!). Hilarious shenanigans prevail in the midst of the very serious business of murder, attempted murder, and arson.
All the trouble begins when a (somewhat questionable) Hollywood movie production crew come to the town in question and move into Ruby Bee’s Flamingo Hotel. All manner of mayhem ensues not only from the production crew, but many of our beloved (!) town residents as well: people get lost, people go missing, people go crazy, and some even get murdered. What a wild ride, and only from the very unusual but very funny, whacky, and creative mind of author Joan Hess.

CHARACTERS GALORE
The stories are getting repetitive. Even with new characters nothing outrageous enough is happening to make the books
outstanding.
