Dog-Eared Danger

Some say all animal lovers are good people--but that’s not always true.

Excited for her upcoming wedding, Harvey Beckett treats her pups, Mayhem and Taco, to a day at the new doggy daycare in town. But when they escape and return frightened and bedraggled, Harvey’s curiosity is piqued--and we all know what curiosity did to the cat.

What should have been a simple pampering session quickly unravels into a mystery more sinister than anyone expected. Something isn’t right at the daycare, and as Harvey digs deeper, she finds danger lurking beneath the surface. But will she sniff out the truth before someone gets hurt?

Cozy, clever, and brimming with small-town charm, Dog-Eared Danger is another must-read installment in the St. Marin’s Cozy Mystery series--perfect for mystery lovers who enjoy witty heroines, lovable pets, and a dash of danger.

ACF Bookens loves a good mystery, a quaint bookshop, and a good cup of coffee. She lives in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, where she takes joy in the mountain views and the quiet back roads. She lives with her son and three rescue cats who are, of course, nocturnal.

Aslan, the cat in her books, is based on her departed first cat by that name, who spent an inordinate amount of time digging up her houseplants.

In her books, Bookens addresses issues of justice and writes with intention to disrupt the white supremacy that says that ＂whiteness＂ is normal by making purposeful note of every character’s ethnicity. She is weary of books that assume everyone is white unless the author says otherwise because being white is not the default of reality.

Her hope is that readers enjoy escaping into her stories and are challenged, just a little, to make themselves better people and the world a better place from the reading.
