Martians in Maggody

Arly Hanks Series, Book 8

By: Joan Hess

Narrated by: Courtney Patterson

Police chief Arly Hanks tries to keep her head when the people of Maggody get UFO fever in this uproarious cozy mystery.

Life is so boring in Maggody, Arkansas, population 755, the locals have resorted to reading supermarket tabloids, gobbling up every rumor of wolf men, zombies, and creatures from outer space they can get their hands on. And as the only sane woman in town, Chief of Police Arly Hanks just smiles and nods whenever her neighbors rave about the latest conspiracy theories. But to Arly's eternal horror, it looks like Maggody is about to become ground zero for an extraterrestrial invasion. The aliens will never know what hit 'em.

It starts when strange circles appear in Raz Buchanon's cornfields, drawing reporters, newscasters, and every nut west of the Mississippi. But as supernatural fever hits Maggody, Arly is confronted with a very terrestrial murder. There may be aliens on Main Street, but in a town this strange, how could anybody tell the difference?

Life has always been nutty in Maggody, but the madness is about to go paranormal. Master of cozies Joan Hess knows better than anyone how to push a mystery to the brink of madness - and then push it a whole lot farther.

Another great Maggody book

Martians in Maggody is a very fun book, Courtney really brings the characters to life as she reads and the story is just hilarious and a great mystery. cannot wait to start the next one.

Totally Hooked on this Series!

Another wild and crazy development in the sleepy town of Maggody that keeps Chief of Police Arly Hanks running hither and yon trying to figure out just what the heck exactly is going on. Thank goodness she has her meddling mother, Ruby Bee and Ruby’s sidekick Estelle to forever stick their noses in where they don’t belong to ensure things get even more difficult and confusing 🤣Another hilarious installment in this highly entertaining series!! ☺️
