Synopsis: Molly Madison is back to solve another doggone difficult murder in her California community in this mystery from the author of A Deadly Bone to Pick. Molly Madison has barely had a moment to catch her breath after moving to the sleepy beach town she now calls home. But as a former PI, she can&’t help but notice the odd chemistry between members of Playtime Academy on the first day she and her loyal Saint Bernadoodle, Noodle, and golden retriever, Harlow, visit. When a trainer&’s body is found on-site, Molly knows it&’s her duty to put her ex-police skills to use. She can&’t say no to temporarily taking in the deceased woman&’s dog, either—not with those puppy dog eyes. Relationships at the training facility are not as clean as the prize-winning agility runs, making it difficult for Molly to get a leash on potential suspects. And her personal life is just as messy—her boyfriend is hiding something, her agoraphobic neighbor needs help, and her number of four-legged friends keep growing as she agrees to dogsit a wriggly local French bulldog. When Molly&’s friend is arrested for the murder, she&’s not sure who to believe anymore. Is the case as simple as the local cops make it seem, or is something more devious afoot?
