Hi β Iβm freelance editor Merry Summerfield, and itβs another fantastic day in drowsy Drizzle Bay. Thatβs until Vicar Paul and I find Isobel Crombie lying dead in a sea of flowers in the aisle of Saint Agathaβs church. Whoβd kill a harmless old girl like her?
In no time flat Iβve scored a house-and-pet sitting gig β Isobelβs remote seaside cottage and her two darling dogs. It comes complete with hollyhocks and seagulls and a SEAL from California who looks a lot like a younger Jon Bon Jovi. He's certainly cute, but arenβt his questions about Isobel's house a bit β well, suspicious?
Then I find a secret office stuffed with alarming files about car thefts and Black Ops assassins. Maybe Isobel wasn't as harmless as we all thought? Sleuthingβs more fun than Iβve had in ages, but how safe am I on my own now things are unraveling? Little white Bichons are hopeless attack dogs.
