But when these two friendly rivals team up to solve a mystery, you can bet their pets aren't the only ones getting collared...Ginny Mallard and her shar-pei, Georgie, are about to run out of kibble and cash, unless she digs up another client for her private concierge business.

This is one dangerous case that's about to go to the dogs--unless man, woman, cat, and canine can work together as one very unconventional crime-solving team.
