The Weed That Strings the Hangman's Bag


The Weed That Strings the Hangman's Bag

Alan Bradley



When a famous puppeteer is murdered, Flavia DeLuce is on the case. In spite of having to constantly deal with two obnoxious older sisters and a visiting aunt who is cranky, stern, and eccentric, Flavia manages to put her investigative skills to good use.

I must say, I adore Flavia DeLuce. She and Amelia Peabody are my favorite amateur sleuths, bar none. This is a wonderful, wonderful series that I hope continues for a very long time.
