About the book
From USA Today bestselling author Leslie Langtry comes the latest laugh-out-loud mystery about big trouble in a small town...
What could be better than having one King Vulture? Well, having two, of course!
Merry Wrath, a former CIA agent turned Girls Scout troop leader, is absolutely thrilled when her eccentric taxidermist sisters-in-law gift her a stuffed King Vulture named Nellie Lou. Despite the bird's beauty, it soon becomes clear that the deceased vulture harbors a mysterious past that brings unexpected chaos—ranging from a wild LSD trip to literally stumbling upon a dead body in Merry's own garage!
As strange individuals by the names of Mr. Sun and Mr. Moon begin appearing and a series of taxidermied animal thefts plague Central Iowa, Merry finds herself once again caught in the midst of a perplexing situation. To make matters worse, she must guide a group of lackluster troop leaders and a child who seems to enjoy playing with napalm.
With an obnoxious mayor causing havoc, her home in shambles, and a perilous kidnapping on the horizon, Merry must unravel the mystery before Nellie Lou isn't the only lifeless creature in her existence.
