TWOsday ~ two books in one (plus a short story)

Two Deadly Doves: Six Geese A-Slaying and Duck the Halls (Meg Langslow Mysteries) ~ by Donna Andrews, 2015, humorous mysteries, 608 pages

Here are two side-splitting Christmas mysteries and an all-new short story from the Meg Langslow series, collected in one edition for fans of The New York Times bestselling author, Donna Andrews.  From ducks to geese to nightingales, Donna Andrews knows her birds!

This special collection starts with Six Geese A-Slaying, centered around the Caerphilly holiday parade.  When the local curmudgeon playing Santa is murdered, it's up to Meg and Chief Burke to tackle a two-fold mission:  Solve the murder and save Christmas…

Next in Duck the Halls, an unknown prankster is setting skunks and ducks loose in the New Life Baptist Church, seemingly to derail the Christmas concert.  Before they can find the culprit, though, an elderly vestryman is found dead.  Who would have murdered such a harmless old man?  And will Meg Langslow ever be able to finish all of her shopping, wrapping, cooking, and decorating in time for Christmas Eve?
