Scandal in Little Leaf Creek
by Cindy Bell
A picnic in Little Leaf Creek comes with runaway goats, cute pups and a murder victim…
Cassie Alberta is enjoying springtime in Little Leaf Creek with her hunky boyfriend, new friends and a job she enjoys. Living next door to two cheeky goats and an energetic dog means she is kept on her toes and there is never a dull moment. She is helping at a charity picnic for the locals that Mirabel’s Diner is hosting and she is excited to spend time with her late-husband’s cousin, Eve, who is visiting for a few days. But things don’t go as planned. Eve seems to be hiding something and the picnic turns to chaos when the goats get loose. Then things get even more tumultuous when someone is murdered.
Cassie partners with her tenacious ex-cop next-door neighbor to help solve the murder. The victim has made a lot of enemies and is embroiled in scandal, so this is a mystery that is proving hard to solve. But things become a whole lot more complicated when Eve becomes a prime suspect. Cassie knows that the only way to clear Eve’s name is to find the real killer.
Will Cassie, Tessa, and their lovable animal sidekicks find the culprit before Eve ends up in handcuffs? Or is the wool being pulled over their eyes and Eve really is the murderer?
