The Case of the Missing Crumbs
(2025)(The first book in the Eldergloom Familiar Files series)
A Story by Daisy Graves
The only thing worse than a missing familiar is a secret you're not in on.
As Eldergloom's premier intelligence coordinator, I pride myself on knowing every secret in this fog-wrapped coastal town. So when sweet hedgehog familiar Crumbs goes missing on Halloween night—with nothing but an overturned basket and a suspicious bow tie left behind—I launch a full-scale investigation with the precision of a seasoned professional.The evidence trail leads me through sugar crystals, muddy paw prints, and the highly irregular behavior of every familiar in town. Tiberius lurking near lighthouses. Treble shapeshifting without proper documentation. Even Duke acting... helpful.
Clearly, a conspiracy is afoot. And as any respectable intelligence coordinator knows, the only thing more dangerous than a missing familiar is discovering that everyone''absolutely everyone—has been keeping secrets from me.
Perfect for readers who know the real detectives have four paws, keen noses, and absolutely no patience for human dramatics. If you love snarky animal narrators, supernatural small-town secrets, interspecies friendships, and mysteries solved with ancient wisdom and modern attitude, discover Eldergloom from those who truly run the show.
