About the book
From USA Today bestselling author Leslie Langtry comes a murder mystery as wild as the Outback...
Merry Wrath's troop is heading Down Under! When young Mayor Ava of Who's There, Iowa receives a call for help from Mayor Sheila of their sister city in Doover, Australia, the girls in the troop quickly pack their bags for a journey halfway across the world - accompanied by their brave former CIA agent turned Girl Scout leader, Merry Wrath. Merry sees this as a wonderful opportunity to explore another part of the globe with the girls and her co-leader, Kelly, who has a more than slight obsession with koalas.
After being greeted by Sheila, her Girl Guide troop, and some kangaroo bodyguards, Ava and the girls set to work to aid the mayor in her battle against the troublesome City Council. While the girls lend a hand to Sheila, Merry and Kelly plan to spend their time searching for koalas and enjoying the sights of the Blue Mountain town in New South Wales. Despite being in a different hemisphere, what could possibly go wrong?
Regrettably, even on the other side of the world, Murder Magnet Merry lives up to her reputation when the body of one of the council members is discovered in the bush. To make matters worse, the police suspect Mayor Sheila of being the culprit! Merry and her team race against time to find the dangerous killer before they are forced to return home and Sheila ends up behind bars!
