Finding the body of a missing mountain hiker in the woods behind her small cafe launches Annie Murphy Malone into her third new career--sleuthing. She is ready to emerge from two years of widowhood with new love interest, Chief of Police Max Lamont and a stray dog and cat she recently adopted. After a near tragic attempted robbery, Annie learns that her new pets have amazing talents. When Max and his detectives zero in on the wrong suspect, Jack--the Doberman, and Jill--the Siamese, set him straight. Navigating the cross-specie barrier forces the canine and feline to get creative with their non-verbal communication skills. When the murderous widow and her “boy toy” feel the heat of suspicion, they make a run for it. Once she disposes of her boyfriend--the paid assassin--she thinks she’s free. But a killer always returns to the scene of the crime. Plastic surgery and a change of hair color are useless when she returns to find her beloved pet Yorkie. Jack nabs her. The case is over, but not the story of Annie and her murder-solving companions.
