"Callahan Garrity mops up the scene in an Atlanta neighborhood where murder meets its match in this feisty, funny heroine. Strange Brew offers up a tidy mystery with a polished writing style and industrial strength suspense." -- Sue Grafton
The sixth book in the Callahan Garrity mystery series by New York Times bestselling author Mary Kay Andrews finds the beloved sleuth facing a brew of community troubles--as her bohemian Atlanta neighborhood morphs into a trendy haven for yuppies--and an old flame.
Cleaning lady turned sleuth Callahan Garrity has cautiously watched her hometown be transformed--and just as she fears, too much cappuccino and new money can be a bad mix.
When the young owner of a microbrewery looking to score prime real estate turns up dead, neighborhood local Wuvvy--an aging flower child and the brewster's biggest foe--becomes the prime suspect. Digging for evidence to clear Wuvvy, Callahan isn't prepared for the succulent secrets she finds, nor the shocking truths that force her to reassess old friendships and an old love.

The winds of change are blowing, bringing gentrification to Callahan Garrity's funky Atlanta neighborhood. Though it probably won't harm her House Mouse housecleaning service, not everyone welcomes the rebirth. And when the body of a murdered microbrewer is discovered in the aftermath of a furious Halloween gale, suspicion falls on the aging "flower child" shopkeeper whom the victim put out of business.
A former cop, Callahan isn't as quick to condemn a colorful local character as some law officers still on the force. But her investigative zeal is stirring up secrets that are forcing her to reassess old friendships and a one-time love--and is brewing up more lethal trouble than Callahan and her "mice" can safely swallow.
