Four Queens of the Buttonbush Museum - by Beth Brookhart (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

In 1950, the Buttonbush Museum is circling the financial drain, and Irene Pickett-a sassy farmer's wife from rural California-is determined to stop the flush. Tired of being typecast as the housewife queen of pickling and laundry, Irene has something to prove. Enter The Four Queens: Irene and three other firebrand women ready to take on the museum's bottomless budget issues.

The biggest obstacle is fellow Queen, Odilia Delgado, who's more concerned with slapping her name on museum buildings than balancing the books. When the county threatens to bulldoze the museum, Irene hatches a plan. Then The Queens discover they're being sabotaged by outside forces. Can Irene pull off a miracle, save the museum, and finally get the credit she deserves? Or will Odilia steamroll her way into another spotlight? Buckle up-this ride's got more twists than a pig's tail at the county fair!
