Book Details
GENRE: Cozy Mystery
BLURB:
Roxy’s spending her summer with burros and jam, but there’s a murderer in the mountains.
It’s burro racing season in the Rockies, and Roxy Constantine is all for it. Now if she can come
up with a good recipe for tomato jam, her summer will be complete. But when Roxy finds a body
on the burro race course, she’s suddenly plunged into a murder investigation. And when her
innocent friend is accused of killing her ex, Roxy must challenge a corrupt police chief who
wants to shut her up. Now she needs to find the real killer and save a neighboring town from a
plot to ruin its mountain magic.
Excerpt One:
“Peggy Sue, don’t you dare!”
Peggy Sue turned soulful brown eyes on my friend Laurel Beacham, who was a few feet behind
her. She looked like she really, really wanted to go through the gate leading to Laurel’s front
yard.
“Peggy Sue, you listen to me.”
Peggy Sue took another tentative step forward. Clearly, she was weighing just how much
trouble she’d be in if she kept going. The gate to the front yard of Laurel’s cabin was slightly ajar
and Peggy Sue would likely be able to step through it in just a moment or two. On the other
hand, based on her tone of voice, Laurel clearly meant business.
“Peggy Sue, I will lock you in the barn, so help me.”
Peggy Sue gave her another of those tragic looks that conveyed, How can you be considering
something so cruel? So inhumane? All I want is some grass. And it’s just sitting there.
Laurel picked up her pace, but she was still a little far away from the gate. I, on the other hand,
was right there. I quickly stepped forward just as Peggy Sue started to push the gate open. I
gave it a quick shove so that the latch caught, and the gate snapped closed.
Peggy Sue stared up at me, eyes narrowing. I had no idea if donkeys bit people who annoyed
them, and I didn’t want to find out. I stepped back. “Sorry, Peggy Sue, but I think you were about
to get into a space where you aren’t allowed.”
Laurel moved forward and grabbed the burro’s halter. “Oh, she was definitely heading for a
space where she isn’t allowed. And she knows it full well.” She pulled Peggy Sue away from the
fence. Shaking her head, the burro gave my friend a look that should have broken the strongest
heart. She had some of the longest eyelashes I’d ever seen, along with those great big brown
eyes. Puppy eyes are nothing compared to burro eyes.
