Owls Well That Ends Well (Meg Langslow Mysteries)

Meg and Michael have bought a dilapidated mansion which, over the years, has become a giant warehouse of junk. Since the wealthy owner never threw anything away, the happy pair must now move everything out before moving in. The solution is clear: they announce a giant lawn sale. The barn is off limits, but it's discovered that at least two visitors have trespassed. One has wisely disappeared, leaving the other's murdered body in an old chest.

In We'll Always Have Parrots, Meg travels with her fiance Michael to a fan convention for Porfiria, Queen of the Jungle--a cheesy cult TV show on which Michael has a minor role.  Michael hopes the weekend will give him a chance to talk  Miss Wynncliffe-Jones, the show's temperamental leading lady and executive producer out of enforcing a certain provision in Michael's contract. Of course, Michael's not the only person whose career the dictatorial star has manipulated.  So when the star is found murdered, the police have plenty of suspects.  Trouble is, Meg doesn't believe they're going to arrest the right one.  Soon she finds herself following the murderer's trail through a hotel filled with egotistical actors, costumed fans, and a motley flock of monkeys and parrots who, rebelling against their role as live scenery, have escaped from their cages to take an active (and noisy) role in the festivities.

We'll Always Have Parrots

"Not many of us would admit, even to ourselves, that we had actually wished for something awful to befall anybody we knew. On the other hand, if we've ever felt exploited by an acquaintance, or undervalued in a job that we felt trapped in-if we've experienced an unappreciative boss, a backstabbing co-worker, a jealous rival, a manipulative friend, a faithless lover, an intrusive neighbor, or even a controlling homeowners' association board . . . well, you get the picture.  "Each of us has doubtless gone a round or two with someone whom we secretly felt deserved more than a small dose of Divine Justice. This probably explains why most of us can't help but smile upon hearing that somebody who "done us wrong" has, at long last, gotten his "just desserts." In extreme cases (that is, if you're anything like me) you might even have gone so far, in the past, as to uncork a small split of champagne!  "I suspect there'll be plenty of bubbly flowing as you relish reading about twenty of literature's most deserving villains, who get their comeuppance in Chesapeake Crimes: They Had It Comin'."  --Katharine Neville, from the Foreword
