The Show Must Go On

A Carolina Canines Cozy Mystery

Murder at the dog show? Someone's barking up the wrong tree.

When arrogant judge Doug Fairfield—the Simon Cowell of the dog show world—is found strangled with a show lead at Palm Harbor's prestigious Coastal Classic, dog trainer Bea Whitman's quiet life goes straight to the hounds once again. Her French Bulldog Max may be ready for his show ring debut, but Bea wasn't planning on dealing with:

• A dead body in an Airstream trailer
• Her mother's impromptu visit
• A potential killer lurking among the handlers
• Her sister's temperamental Persian cat terrorizing everyone
• A handsome veterinarian who keeps stealing her heart
• And enough family drama to fill a Best in Show lineup

As rivalries, secrets, and scandals surface faster than a Greyhound, Bea realizes almost everyone had a reason to want the ruthless judge silenced. From breeding program controversies to gambling debts, the suspects are piling up like Westminster winners.

With her therapy dog Luna's calming presence and rambunctious Max's adorable determination, Bea must sniff out the truth before the killer gets away. But in a world where even the most pampered pooch could be hiding secrets, finding the murderer might be her toughest trick yet.

The Show Must Go On is a charming cozy mystery that proves sometimes the best detectives have four legs, cold noses, and a talent for getting their humans into trouble. Perfect for fans of dog shows, quirky families, seaside towns, and mysteries that will make you laugh out loud while keeping you guessing until the very end.
