I know I've been very amused by Arly Hanks mysteries in the past, but never really warmed to this one. I don't know if this book in the series is any different, or if I just wasn't in the mode for bucoli hijinks. It has the usual enormous pig, and cretinous Buchanons. I do quite like her mother, Ruby Bee, and the evil Jim Bob. This storyline involves crop circles and mysterious floating lights that might be UFOs. Alys is sure there's a con going on, but can't prove it. It's not really a matter for a criminal investigation, until one of the alien abduction experts is murdered. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Police chief Arly Hanks tries to keep her head when the people of Maggody get UFO fever in this uproarious cozy mystery. Life is so boring in Maggody, Arkansas, population 755, the locals have resorted to reading supermarket tabloids, gobbling up every rumor of wolf men, zombies, and creatures from outer space they can get their hands on. And as the only sane woman in town, Chief of Police Arly Hanks just smiles and nods whenever her neighbors rave about the latest conspiracy theories. But to Arly's eternal horror, it looks like Maggody is about to become ground zero for an extraterrestrial invasion. The aliens will never know what hit 'em. It starts when strange circles appear in Raz Buchanon's cornfields, drawing reporters, newscasters, and every nut west of the Mississippi. But as supernatural fever hits Maggody, Arly is confronted with a very terrestrial murder. There may be aliens on Main Street, but in a town this strange, how could anybody tell the difference? Life has always been nutty in Maggody, but the madness is about to go paranormal. Master of cozies Joan Hess knows better than anyone how to push a mystery to the brink of madness--and then push it a whole lot farther. Martians in Maggody is the 8th book in the Arly Hanks Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

How's that for a first line of a novel, doesn't it make you want to know just what's going on in Maggody. Arly the sheriff who came back to Maggody to escape from the madness of New York City is once again trying to remain sane, unlike all the other crazy residents of her hometown.
This isn't the strongest entry in the series but this eighth book in Arly's saga is very entertaining, and recommended to fans of the series of someone looking for a funny mystery. ( )
