Dog groomer by day, amateur sleuth by night -- untangling mysteries is her specialty!

When professional dog groomer Ruby Mae Thornton discovers her business rival dead in his mobile grooming van, she becomes the prime suspect in a murder investigation that's got the whole town of Whisker Falls talking. With her purple "Pampered Pooch" van spotted at the crime scene and a heated public argument with the victim fresh in everyone's memory, Ruby realizes she'll need more than pet-friendly charm to clear her name.

Partnering with her cafe-owning best friend Clementine and local veterinarian Percy Standish, Ruby puts her expert eye for detail and deep knowledge of the town's four-legged friends to work. As she follows a trail of clues -- from distinctive fur clippings to poisoned premium dog treats and a mysterious German Shepherd -- Ruby uncovers a web of blackmail, deception, and fierce competition in the seemingly peaceful world of show dog competitions.

With Detective Grimsby breathing down her neck and a killer targeting those who get too close to the truth, Ruby must use every trick in her grooming kit to identify the real culprit before she becomes the next victim.

In this delightful debut cozy mystery, R.L. Harman delivers a tale of small-town secrets, professional rivalries, and unexpected friendships that will have readers begging for more adventures with Ruby and her canine companions.
