About this series
Three dog loving sleuths. A dead body. An innocent man jailed for murder.
When Dana Fox, feisty mother of two, discovers the dead body of a bullying poodle breeder at the dog show, the Chicks are pushed deep into the middle of another mystery. The wrong man is in jail and it's up to Dana, leader of the pack, Abigail Truelove, owner of Pampered Pooch, and Molly Gibson, a shy romance writer, to collar the real killer.
Solving this mystery isn't as easy as depicted in the Agatha Christie books shelved in the Chicks' local library. Far from it. Especially when the victim is the most hated man in the show world and the suspect list reads like an open phone directory.
Dealing with a wacky fortune teller, a hot gym instructor, homeless guys armed with
shopping trolleys, Queen Bee of the Yummy Mummies and an English Lord called Dumpling would keep even the inimitable Poirot himself awake at nights.
And just when they think they've cracked the case – another dead body says otherwise...

1
Abigail Truelove believes her champion standard smooth dachshund, Chloe, has a lock on the Ladies Kennel Club Best in Show trophy. That is, until she discovers her nemesis, Petra Sullivan, has been sleeping with the show judge…and with Abi's boyfriend. Understandably, Abi's upset. In fact, she might even have threatened bloodthirsty consequences. In front of a show ring full of witnesses. So, later, when Abi trips over Petra's dead body in a dark alley, she knows she must find Petra's killer. If not, she could end up showing her wiener dog in prison. To catch a killer, Abi enlists her two best friends to help: Molly, a virgin romance-writer and Dana, a ball-busting mother of two. Together, they revive their high school sleuthing group, The Gumshoe Chicks. When the list of suspects becomes longer than a week's grocery list, the Chicks quickly discover that sleuthing isn't as easy as the Nancy Drew books portray. The local dog show world is full of angry wives, irate competitors and a Mick Dundee type guy with a yard full of man-eating crocodiles–all cheated, tricked or dumped by Petra. Which one would stupidly waste their big-ticket luxury dog leash for a murder weapon? The same one who is now determined to collar Abi?

2
When Molly Gibson, sensual romance writer but shyest and most insecure member of the Gumshoe Chicks, finds more than she bargained for in the Driscoll's dog trailer, the Chicks - Molly, Abi and Dana - swap show ring etiquette and grooming mitts for some deadly serious sleuthing. Their only clues are the blood splattered dog-grooming scissors found buried in a fellow competitor's chest, a husband blackmailing his wife, and a death threat written on a Betty Boop writing pad. As the Chicks investigate, they discover several suspects at the dog show have something to hide. Was the dead man really a serial Don Juan, intent on taking every female show competitor over 30 to bed? Did the ostentatious poodle exhibitor lose his temper, decide to teach the victim a lesson, and go too far? Or, was the female judge with the Gucci boots angry when the victim threatened to expose her infidelity? And who is that bad-boy biker with the sea-blue eyes and kissable lips? Molly, who has enough trouble resolving conflict in her fictional stories is freaked out at the prospect of confronting a real-life antihero. A villain who's killed not once, but twice, and if she doesn't apply her creative flair to unearthing the culprit, could easily kill again. Just when the Chicks think they know who the murderer is, Molly stumbles over another clue proving them all wrong. With only a geriatric chihuahua and a hairless broom to work with, will she live to pass this message on to the others?
