Book excerpt: Petnapping in Maple Falls! Big Red is more than a pet...so much more. It turns out the large ginger fluff ball is not the only one taken, which is a catastrophe for the owners who, like Maddie, consider them family. Naturally, 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 a little sleuthing—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!

"Enjoyed this book, very engaging and hard to put down. Had to finish it all at once, not easy to stop at any spot besides the ending!" - KC “I am so enjoying the Maple Lane Mysteries. I love the fact of Maddie, the main character, is a strong young woman. I also love that she is very close to her 70-year-old grandmother who raised her and is still very close to her friends. Such a good cozy mystery.” “This was fantastic! This story was really good and involved and yes lots of cooking and snooping, oh yes and murder and kidnapping!” - Jean
