Calamity Jayne and Fowl Play at the Fair by Kathleen Bacus (English) Paperback B

Description: Calamity Jayne and Fowl Play at the Fair by Kathleen Bacus "Fans of Janet Evanovich will be glad to see that you dont always have to go to the burgh for mirthful murder and mayhem." Booklist What do you call a blonde in a freezer?A frosted flake. Tressa Jayne Turner, known in her hometown as "Calamity Jayne" for her unconventional exploits, is the newest reporter at the Grandville Gazette. And after a whirlwind start to her new job, shes ready to enjoy the final weeks of summer at The Iowa State Fair. The homegrown good-time is Tressas favorite time of year-donuts, funnel cakes, cotton candy, turkey legs. Its also her Uncle Franks busiest. His ice cream stand is in a prime location, and hes poised to scoop the competition. But when a soft-serve saboteur appears at the same time her cousin goes missing, its another fine, sticky mess shes gotten herself into. With a string of malicious pranks, psycho dunk-tank clowns, two geriatric Jessica Fletcher wannabes, one hot state trooper, and a guy in a chicken suit, its mayhem on the midway! Throw in one Ranger Rick Townsend, the Don Juan of the Department of Natural Resources and bestower of the hated "Calamity Jayne" moniker, and Tressas got her hands full! The only question is, can she solve the crime and save the day... or will this blonde be enjoying her final fair? What critics are saying about the Calamity Jayne Mysteries: "Fun and lighthearted with an interesting mystery, a light touch of romance and some fascinating characters." RT Book Reviews "Throw in two parts Nancy Drew, one part Lucille Ball, add a dash of Stephanie Plum, shake it all up and youve got a one-of-a-kind amateur sleuth with a penchant for junk food and hot-pink snakeskin cowgirl boots. A word to the wise: if youre prone to laughing out loud when reading funny books, try not to read Calamity Jayne when youre sandwiched between two sleeping passengers on an airplane...sometimes we learn these things the hard way." Chick Lit Cafe "Filled with dumb-blonde jokes, nonstop action and rapid-fire banter, this is a perfect read for chick-lit fans who enjoy a dash of mystery." Publishers Weekly FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Kathys unconventional path to publication can certainly be described as the "road less traveled." A pioneer for women in law enforcement, she was one of the first female state troopers in Iowa, and she learned two valuable lessons that have served her well in her pursuit of a professional writing career: never give up and never stop laughing. Kathy is the award-winning author of the Calamity Jayne Mystery series. Shes been a Romantic Times American Title finalist, a Golden Heart finalist, and a finalist in the prestigious Daphne Du Maurier Award of Excellence contest, among other writing accolades.
