Synopsis
Animal photographer Janet MacPhail is training for her cat Leo’s first feline agility trial when she gets a frantic call about a “cat-napping.” When Janet and her Australian Shepherd Jay set out to track down the missing kitty, they quickly find themselves drawn into the volatile politics of feral cat colonies, endangered wetlands, and a belligerent big-shot land developer. Janet is crazy busy trying to keep up with her mom’s nursing-home romance, her own relationship with Tom and his Labrador Retriever Drake, and upcoming agility trials with Jay and Leo. But when a body is discovered on the canine competition course, it stops the participants dead in their tracks—and sets Janet on the trail of a killer.

Love the cover!
Isn’t it great, Maria? It was a group effort – two photographer friends staged a photo of a cat on an agility dogwalk, and one of them was the body in the tunnel. Another friend provided a photo of her Aussie in exactly the sniffing posture I envisioned. Then the artist colored the dog in the photo to look like my dog, Jay, who inspired the protagdog in the books, and the designer put it all together. 😉
I still have the first book in this series to read. It looks so good and this one looks wonderful, too.
This sounds like a good one. Love the cover.
Cute cover! I’ll have to check out the series.
