Publisher Description
From USA Today bestselling author Leslie Langtry comes a hilariously new mystery involving some seriously secretive new characters...
It's been a crazy summer in Who's There, Iowa, but if ex-CIA agent turned Girl Scout leader Merry Wrath Ferguson thought all the drama would end when school started, she was wrong. Now that the teens from the Cult of NicoDerm are away at college, a strange group of squatters, calling themselves the Ministry of a Series of Unfortunate Events, have moved into the Chapel of Despair and are refusing to leave. NicoDerm leader Stewie, from his college in Wisconsin, believes his Big Demon Energy will drive them out. Merry's most dangerous Girl Scout, Betty, has a plan that involves a guy named Bad Andy and about 40 Russians from Des Moines, but Merry thinks there has to be a better, somewhat more legal way.
Unfortunately, the police can't dislodge them and Betty's middle school club, the Future Espionage Agents of America, is making plans of their own to deal with the intruders. In addition Felicity Coombs, crime scene cleaner, has been finding strange poems at the sites of fatal home accidents, that seem to be aimed at Merry. Merry is starting to wonder if any of those accidents were really murders, and she suspects that they may be connected to the Ministry. If so, can she solve the mystery and get this new cult out before it's too late?
