PAWS ON THE PIER
A Bloodhounds & Beachcombers Mystery (Book 2) Spring hits Cedar Run with a sugary, seaside sparkle: the boardwalk is humming, the lemonade is flowing, and the annual Boardwalk Pet Parade is about to strut into town glory.For me, Sherlock the bloodhound, it also means something far more dangerous than confetti and cute costumes.
Because the parade ends with a scream behind the judges' tent, a champion dead by a brown leather leash, and one traumatized little dog left shaking in the aftermath.
Amanda Watson, my human (and the boss of Paws & Claws Pet Retreat), wants justice. Joe Ricci, the retired detective who keeps us from doing anything too heroic-stupid, wants facts. The town wants a simple villain. And I want the truth, because my nose knows what gossip doesn't: this wasn't an accident, it was a message.
As suspicion swirls around jealous rivals, bitter ex-friends, and a reporter hungry for a headline, Amanda and I follow a trail of threats, missing gear, and one very wrong scent hiding in plain sight. The deeper we dig, the clearer it becomes: the killer didn't just plan a murder, they planned a moment, and they're counting on everyone to clap.
Now we have to catch a strangler before the boardwalk lights go out for good.
A cozy, pet-forward seaside mystery packed with boardwalk charm, small-town suspects, and a big-hearted canine narrator who would do anything for his human, even wear a baby-blue bow tie with a yellow blazer in public.
