Book Overview
The arrival of a slick talking, bible thumping evangelist in the little town of Maggody signals the start of another rollicking mystery featuring Police Chief Arly Hanks, one of today's most delightful sleuths! When the townspeople of Maggody start taking the reverend's "cures", Arly keeps a watchful eye. But then two dead bodies turn up, and Arly decides it's time to learn the gospel truth.

Mirth in Maggody
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Miracles in Maggody is one of a series of mysteries set in the mythical town of Maggody, Arkansas. Joan Hess has created a town full of interesting (and very funny) people. Living in Maggody might be hell; reading about Maggody is heaven. If you were turned off by the Claire Malloy series by Hess (and who isn't irritated by heroines who can only unmask a killer by doing something incredibly stupid), don't worry. The Maggody series is blessed with humor, wit and charm and a likable heroine. Miracles in Maggody unfairly stereotypes fundamentalist Christians. But Hess unfairly stereotypes most other ethnic and religious groups -- and does it with so much light hearted style -- that even a dyed in the wool fundamentalist like me enjoyed the book.
