Maisy is about to fall down the rabbit hole with not only the rodeo coming to town, but also the craft fair. Will she have the wherewithal to get out of this next murder charge? Or will she choose to eat the cake, instead?

Alexander Maple's furniture business has been attracting unmarked vans and hard-looking strangers at odd hours. When Maisy confronts him about relocating so she can expand into a café, their argument turns into a public spectacle witnessed by half the town. That night, her security cameras are smashed. A week later, Alexander is carried out in a body bag, killed by one of his own imported statuettes, and every piece of evidence points straight at Maisy: the public fight, the motive, the missing footage.

After the rodeo is in full swing, tourists flooding Westcott, and a second death from a fentanyl overdose rattling the community, Maisy starts connecting the dots between Alexander's suspiciously cheap South American imports, a gambling debt, and a cartel distributor working the craft fair. Sheriff Sam Madrid is watching her closely, but not entirely for the reasons she feared.

With the help of her adopted French Bulldog and the last three members of the Fearsome Foursome, Maisy is going to prove she’s not off her rocker. In fact, she’s going to show the small town that she can ride with the rodeo clowns and not get bucked by the bull.

Warm, witty, and grounded in small-town loyalty, Rabbits, Rodeo, and Murder is a cozy mystery about community, chosen family, and what happens when a bookshop owner refuses to mind her own business.
