Wanted Dead or Alive: Pesky Pilfering Parrot or The Case of Pari's Party In Perth

Jubilee Kincaid's first adventure was in Finding The Fiddle Family's Feline--or--The Case of Forgotten Freddy    This second book has Jubilee maturing another year and becoming closer to being a teenager. Not sure she can remember what her father looked like, since he died when she was four years old, Jubilee reluctantly accompanies her mother to Scotland—to discover her roots and meet Clan Kincaid. Arriving at Edinburgh Castle, Jubilee is literally knocked off her feet as a boy is pursuing his escaped parrot. Parents, people of Perth, a priest, a pony and the police all enter the picture as Pari, the Pesky Parrot pecks the patience of everyone.

Jubilee Kincaid mysteries are written using alliteration, meaning that the same letter is used in a string of words. This is a playful device to make a story fun to read. Jubilee also gives the reader a greater understanding of geography and cultures.
