Maggie By The Book Book Summary and Study Guide

Detailed plot synopsis reviews of Maggie By The Book


Maggie has agreed to go to WAR, the We Are Romance writers conference in New York with her two houseguests, who just happen to be her fictional characters come to life. Little do they know that this conference is going to include malicious pranks. A singing cowboy pulls a fake gun, a hotel room full of mice, a sprinkler malfunction, and food poisoning. The crew is trying to solve these mysteries when they are blind-sided by a real murder of one of the conference managers. It is a race to the finish with the local police (who haven't found any clues), and Maggie and her pals who have too many suspects. A good second book although Maggie comes off as somewhat neurotic and nasty to her friends.
