A “witty, fast-paced” whodunit starring a Maine dog trainer who plays a game of fetch—and winds up framed for murder (Shirley Rousseau Murphy, author of the Joe Grey Cat Mysteries).
One of kennel owner Jack Field’s favorite pastimes is spending quality time with a fun-loving pooch—which is why he’s playing fetch with a Corgi named Tipper instead of mingling with humans at a July 4th shindig. But when Tipper returns with a bloodstained boating cap in his teeth, the ex-New York cop decides to investigate . . . and finds an anonymous dead body clutching the tennis ball Jack tossed away moments before.
The local law think Jack’s the killer, since he had the opportunity and, as it turns out, a motive. Even his loyal and lovely fiancée, sometime-medical examiner Dr. Jamie Cutter, is troubled by evidence that contradicts Jack’s tale. Someone’s going to great lengths to frame Jack Field, and he’s determined to find out why--even though everyone from a powerful tycoon to a Miami drug lord to a whole passel of professional killers, is equally determined to see him doggoned dead . . .
