About this ebook
Master mystery spinner Carolyn Hart gives us the tenth high-spirited entry in her Agatha, Anthony and Macavity Award-winning Death on Demand series.
The most delectable sleuthing couple since Nick met Nora, Annie and Max Darling manage to find quite a bit of murder in their allegedly safe and serene South Carolina island resort town. After all, murder is Annie's business -- well, sort of. She's the proprietor of the popular Death on Demand mystery bookstore and cafe, and her establishment seems to attract trouble like Annie's pesky felines, Dorothy L. and Agatha, attract hairballs. Now, Annie and Max watch their Fourth of July holiday explode not only with fun and fireworks, but with murder as well.
The library board wants to declare its independence from new member, retired Brigadier General Charlton "Bud" Hatch, a man accustomed to being in charge. Hatch's takeover attitude has alienated everyone in town, especially the women. But Annie finds it difficult to ignore him at a crowded patriotic festival -- particularly when he's shot dead before her eyes...

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A Death on Demand mystery with lots of curves and alcoves to sort through trying to find out who done it. A good read for a Spring evening.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5December 6, 2003Yankee Doodle DeadCarolyn HartFelt like some lighter fare after the horror kick I was on, and the Death on Demand series is always good for light entertainment and a get-together with familiar characters. Annie and Max still annoy me a little with their sexual repartee, but I do love the bookstore and the cats. Same old storyline: some jerk is killed at the Fourth of July fest and nobody’s going to miss him, blah blah blah. I always like the books, but the details are forgettable.
