DAWN KRAVAGNA

Murderous Critters is a trio of outrageously funny mystery short stories, the first collection in a series featuring the comic animal characters from the world of Cattle Capers(tm).

The Magician's Trick: City of Boville police intern Crazy Cal’s life is in peril when he goes undercover to investigate a murderous magician who may be performing more than just harmless tricks onstage.

The Dino Sore Mystery: When a T-Rex skeleton collapses, crushing Professor Mel Linhead to death at the Boville Natural History Museum, Police Detective Adam Steer is summoned to investigate. Was it a bizarre accident or is bone dealer Antonio Doggunnit doing more than just digging up dog bones for mutts to munch on?

The Mootana Murders: Adam Steer, accompanied by sidekick Crazy Cal, expects an uneventful visit to his uncle’s ranch in Big Twig, Mootana. But someone is gunning after Uncle Fibius and the killer seems to have his sights trained on more than just one target.

And in the extra tidbit of a tale, Whopper Fish: Boville Police Chief Pork needs a fishing license to catch whopper fish in Lake Vermin, but he may throttle employees at the State Licensing Bureau before he can obtain one. However, after all the frustration of dealing with government bureaucrats, is he also the victim of a big whopper of a fish tale?
