Petnapping in Maple Falls!
Big Red is more than a pet…
… so much more.
Turns out the large ginger ball of fluff is not the only one taken, which is a catastrophe for the owners who, like Maddie, consider them family.
Of course, the body found behind Maddie’s bakery takes precedence with the police and has the town scared, but why is no one else searching?
While the Sheriff, who happens to be her ex-boyfriend, is doing what he can to solve both crimes, Maddie can’t sit by and wait. Going against her darling Gran’s wishes, she once again does her own detective work—with a little help from her friends.
If you love your pet, this cozy mystery will have you cheering for Maddie, because she won’t give in until every animal is safely home!
