β¦ Synopsis
From USA Today bestselling author Leslie Langtry comes a former CIA agent turned Girl Scout troop leader and a laugh-out-loud mystery!
Merry Wrathβs summer plans didnβt originally include an unexpected visit from her old friend, Hillyβa quirky CIA assassin whoβs been forced by HR to take her first vacation inβ¦forever. The fact that Hilly chose a small town in Iowa for vacation doesnβt bother Merry or her scout troop (especially since Hillyβs teaching them how to kill a man with one punch), but her former handler, Riley, believes something sinister is afoot.
After all Lana, Merryβs arch-nemesis, is sighted all over town, and when a Chinese operative ends up murdered in her backyard, Merry starts to wonder if Riley is right and Hilly is secretly on the job. It doesnβt help that a group of cosplaying teenage druids have targeted Merry for a misguided ritual sacrifice, or that Medea Jones, cub reporter, constantly harasses Merry, seeing the former spy as her Pulitzer Prize winning vehicle out of Whoβs There, Iowa.
Merry wonders if her strange friend really is on vacation, or if she's after another target? Is it Lana? Was it the Chinese operative? Or is it Merry Wrath?
