Synopsis
A mystery from the Agatha Award finalist: &“[An] appealing picture of the dog-show world… Cozy fans who love dogs are in for a treat.&”—Publishers Weekly Busy mom and pedigree Standard Poodle owner, Melanie Travis doesn&’t mind helping out at Puppy Fest, an annual fundraiser to benefit a local dog rescue. Considering the venue—Belle Haven mansion, owned by wealthy philanthropist Leo Brody—it&’s shaping up to be the can&’t-miss charity event of the summer. Unfortunately, when Melanie&’s breeding background lands her in the doghouse with Jane, Leo&’s snappy daughter who runs the rescue, Melanie finds herself simultaneously managing Puppy Fest and the millionaire&’s hopelessly fractious family. But once Puppy Fest kicks off, Leo is nowhere to be found—until Melanie discovers his current mistress crouching over his dead body. According to police, the father&’s severe nut allergy went into overdrive after he accidentally consumed a contaminated cookie. However, Libby, one of Leo&’s children and a friend of Melanie&’s Aunt Peg, believes someone deliberately put him down for good… From a four-time winner of the Maxwell Award from the Dog Writers Association of America, this witty novel is an entertaining read for fans of canines and cozy mysteries. &“It&’s mutts vs. purebreds as Melanie Travis investigates the death of a dog-loving philanthropist…Worth the price of admission.&”—Kirkus Reviews &“If you like dogs, you&’ll love Laurien Berenson&’s Melanie Travis mysteries!&”—Joanne Fluke, New York Times-bestselling author of the Hannah Swensen series
