For Benni, the annual State Fair is a much anticipated break in her routine of overseeing museum exhibits, temperamental artists, and stubborn cattle. This year they are showing traditional African- American quilts. But when one is stolen and it leads to a cold-blooded murder, Benni realizes there is more to this fair, and she'll have to see who is really a wolf in sheep's clothing.
Another solid entry in a great series! Benni's nutty family is at it's best, and the murder mystery is a good one with an ending I found satisfying for not being the predictable heroine-does-something-stupid-to-solve-the-mystery type of ending. The state fair wasn't my favourite setting, but really that's just me being picky. I'm looking forward to reading the next one, while also being disappointed about being caught up and no longer having a backlog of Benni books to look forward to.
