Just when Beverley thinks things can't get worse, an unfortunate chain of events?including a cameo by bigfoot and the sight of her landlady Leona Tisdale in an unforgettable NSFW outfit?mean she's now facing eviction from her rented home too.
But this late bloomer is ready to rise to the challenge and reach new a pinnacle in adulting?which begins with attempting to buy a home and straighten things out with Callan. Beverley might not know what the future holds, but she's determined to find a place for her chickens, her belongings ... and her heart.

Klappentext
Home is where…your chickens roost.
It's been a year since Beverley Green moved back to Oklahoma. She gave up her fast-paced, big-city life for something more manageable, and she's finally starting to feel more at ease in her new hometown of Guthrie. Her bookstore is doing well, no one has stolen any sheep lately, and she's even started dating a nice guy. Do you even call it "dating" when you're in your forties? Whatever you call it, it seems to be working…
…until a weekend away sets off a chain of events that leads to a missing person, two orphaned alpacas, and a whole slew of misunderstandings and wrong moves.
The usual cast of characters from Guthrie is back for more mayhem (Al and Bill Turner) and wisdom (Jimmy the bookstore turtle), as well as a few friends who might be new to town, but prove to be just as strange as the regulars.
Will Beverley lose her bookstore, as well as her house? Or will a family inheritance from a most unusual source save the day?
Is a kilt-wearing wacko in competition for our heroine's heart?
Will Beryl the chicken once again find her way home? And if so, with whose help?
You won't want to miss the latest installment in the most unusual adventures of our favorite quirky GenXer, Beverley Green!
