Introduction
Meg's expecting twins---any minute!---in this next hilarious entry in the award-winning, New York Times bestselling series!
Meg is eight and a half months pregnant with twins when Michael asks if she wouldn?t mind another houseguest. One of his doctoral students is directing his new translation of a play by a minor Spanish playwright, and the playwright has agreed to come to town for the production.
Senor Mendoza turns out to be a drinker, a smoker, and an inveterate partygoer. Before long, Meg's kitchen is filled with the smells of Spanish food and the voices of all the wilder souls in both the drama and Spanish departments. Into this chaos arrive two prune-faced administrators, the dean of the English department and a man from the college president's office, who say that the play must be canceled.
When the dean is found murdered, Meg's house becomes a crime scene, and the only way to restore peace is to help Chief Burke solve the murders---while rescuing the student's dissertation and Michael's tenure---all before dashing off to the hospital to give birth to her twins!
The one and only Donna Andrews continues to surprise and delight in this next knee-slapping adventure featuring Meg Langslow and all the eccentric characters that make up her world.

Note from the Author: If you love mysteries but prefer funny to gory . . if you can't believe anyone would play Nancy Drew in real life, but can understand solving crimes to protect those you love . . . if you've ever said, "you should see MY family" . . . you might like my Meg Langslow series. In the newest book, Stork Raving Mad, Meg is eight-and-a-half months pregnant--with twins. She's also playing hostess to dozens of her husband's drama students--refugees from a dorm with no heat--and a Spanish playwright who cooks food so spicy the mere odor induces morning sickness. When a hated faculty member is murdered in her library, Meg must help the police solve the crime before the killer strikes again.Book Club Recommendations
