Meg juggles twins, murder, and a back-talking bird in the
next side-splittingly funny installment in the
award-winning, New York Times bestselling
series
During a 2am feeding for her four-month-old
twins, Meg Langslow hears an odd noise and goes downstairs
to find her living room filled with dozens of animals—cats,
dogs, hamsters, gerbils, rabbits, guinea pigs, and a
stunningly foul-mouthed macaw. She soon learns that
financial woes have caused the local animal shelter to
repeal its no-kill policy.
Her kindhearted father,
her zoologist grandfather, and other like-minded citizens
have stolen all the shelter's animals, both as a gesture of
protest and to protect them until the hated policy can be
repealed. But the volunteer who was to transport the animals
to new homes has been murdered. Was it the victim's tangled
love life that drove someone to murder? Or the dark secrets
behind local politics? And will Meg ever succeed in finding
homes for all the animals that have landed in her life?
Full of the hilarious shenanigans – avian
as well as human – that have come to surround Meg and her
eccentric band of friends and family, the latest from the
one and only Donna Andrews will have you laughing until the
very last page: it's The Real Macaw!
