Stalked at Maplewood Cove
(2025)(The fifth book in the Dog Walking Detective series)
A Story by Daisy Stone
When your boyfriend's ex is being stalked, helping her might save his past—or destroy your future.
Megan Brown thought she'd earned some peace after clearing Jake Thompson of attempted murder charges. Three months of quiet dog walking, stable relationship building, and zero dead bodies seemed like a reasonable reward.
Then Claire Brennan shows up at Harbor Grounds, terrified and desperate.
Someone's stalking Jake's ex-girlfriend. But when Claire turns to the police, there's no evidence. Nothing that can be done.
Desperate, Claire does the unthinkable: she asks Megan for help.
Megan wants to refuse. Claire nearly destroyed Jake with her malicious lies, and now she's back— engineering "accidental" encounters, and driving wedges into Megan's increasingly complicated relationship with Jake.
But the threats are real. And when Claire's apartment is broken into with nothing stolen except photos of her with Jake, Megan realizes this stalker isn't after Claire alone—they're targeting Jake's past, present, and future. And Megan falls squarely in the crosshairs.
With her relationship with Jake tested by Claire's constant presence, her own safety threatened by an obsessive stalker, and Biscuit sensing danger at every turn, Megan must solve this case before the shadows watching Claire come for her instead.
Because in Maplewood Cove, peace never lasts.
And some obsessions don't stop until they get what they want—even if it means murder.
Perfect for fans of cozy mysteries with amateur sleuths, small-town secrets, and dogs who always know more than they should.
While this is Book 5 in the Dog Walking Detective series, it can be read as a complete standalone—all mysteries are fully resolved, and no prior knowledge of the series is required.
Genre: Mystery
