Dead in the Water
(2025)(The first book in the Paws & Alibis Mysteries series)
A novel by Wynn Valentine
Ruby Castellano thought solving one missing cat case would satisfy her dachshund's detective aspirations. She was wrong. Dead wrong.
When Pelican Cove's pompous yacht club commodore turns up murdered during the town's biggest regatta, Copper's the one who finds the body—and he's not about to let this mystery go unsolved. What starts as a tragic accident quickly unravels into embezzlement, fraud, and a frame job targeting the club's hardworking secretary.
With three different people confessing to crimes they didn't commit and Copper refusing to let anyone rest until justice is served, Ruby reluctantly dives deeper into small-town secrets. Between a grieving widow with her own agenda, a desperate contractor with everything to lose, and a yacht club hiding financial scandals, Ruby discovers that Pelican Cove's tranquil surface conceals some very murky depths.
Armed with Copper's nose for clues, a charming veterinarian who's becoming more than just a friend, and her own sharp eye for inconsistencies, Ruby's about to learn that sometimes the deadliest currents run closest to shore.
Perfect for fans of humorous cozy mysteries featuring reluctant amateur sleuths, determined animal sidekicks, and small-town secrets served with a side of Florida sunshine and sarcasm.
Dead in the Water is Book 1 in the Paws & Alibis Mysteries series.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
