“Meg Langslow is a blacksmith. In this 3rd book of the series by Donna Andrews, she has a craft tent where she is selling ornamental ironwork at the Revolutionary War re-enactment being held in her home town. Her boyfriend, Michael, is participating in the re-enactment as one of the French military members. Between trying to find time to talk about the two of them spending more time together, helping the other crafters out of trouble regarding their anachronistic faus pas, and keeping the wrought-iron flamingos she made as a special order out of sight so that she won't become "the blacksmith who makes those flamingos", Meg can hardly keep up with everything. The last thing she needs is to find a body in her tent that appears to have been stabbed with one of her knives. It is the usual mix of light romance, murder and humor. I really enjoyed the great description of making rifle shot for the re-enactment battles. This is a great series that I have been planning on getting back to for some time and I'm glad I finally did it!!”
