Description

A cozy mystery with "a fast-paced plot, plenty of tongue-in-cheek humor, and tips on antique collecting" (Library Journal).

Spring has sprung a major leak in far-from-serene Serenity, as the Mississippi River drops in for an extended stay. With homes and businesses flooded, how better to help the town recover than by staging a church bazaar?
Brandy Borne knows her mother Vivian's plan, however, is more likely to lean toward bizarre, especially when she hears Mother wheedle a reclusive Russian heiress into donating the last Faberge egg ever created! When the winning bidder turns up mortally scrambled, Brandy and Mother cook up a plan to crack the case of this killer. . .who is one seriously bad egg!
Includes Miss Brandy Borne's Tips On Antiques!

"Auction tips and a recipe for spicy beef stew enhance this satirical cozy."—Publishers Weekly
Praise for Barbara Allan and the Trash 'n' Treasures Mystery Series. . .
"Top pick! . . .thrills, laugh-out-loud moments and amazingly real relationships."—Romantic Times Book Reviews
"Engaging and utterly believable."—Sara Paretsky
"This is surely one of the funniest cozy series going."—Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine
