The Real Macaw
Donna Andrews
*Winner of the Lefty Award for Best Humorous Mystery Novel*
During an early-morning feeding for her four-month-old twins, Meg Langslow hears an odd noise and goes downstairs to find her living room filled with cats, dogs, hamsters, gerbils, rabbits, guinea pigs, and a stunningly foul-mouthed macaw. What the--bleep--is going on here?
Turns out that a financially-strapped local animal shelter has repealed its no-kill policy and, in an act of protest led in part by Meg's own zoologist grandfather, the animals have been stolen and resettled around town. But now the volunteer who helped transport the shelter animals has turned up dead. The animal-rights activist's untimely death seems very, very wrong... Was it the result of a lover's quarrel? Or is something--or someone--more sinister at play? And, arguably as important, will Meg ever rid her home of these pesky houseguests and get back to the business of nesting with her newborns? Squawk.

"As always, Andrews laces this entertaining whodunit with wit, a fine storyline, and characters we've come to know and love."--Richmond Times-Dispatch
