Part of Series
A new romance, a murder, an ex-con, a PI, and a whole lot of dogs. Alex and Leo are finally able to break ground on the dog rescue they've been working on for impossible to place dogs who have been at the shelter for an extended period or who find themselves on death row for one reason or another. The altruistic couple hire a man who is both a contractor and an ex-con to oversee the construction of the pens and buildings. There are those who aren’t happy with Leo’s choice and are campaigning to have him removed, but the man is doing a good job and Leo is a strong believer in second chances, so he keeps him on in spite of those who'd like to see him gone. When a Holiday Bay resident is found dead, Leo’s ex-con is blamed, and it is up to Leo and Alex to prove his innocence. Meanwhile, Shelby and Dawson are working to redefine both their work and personal relationship, Amy is thinking of making a change, and Beck has an interesting new case that will keep everyone guessing.

Kathi lives with her husband, kids, grandkids, and dogs in beautiful Lake Tahoe. When she isn't writing, Kathi likes to read (preferably at the beach or by the fire), cook (preferably something with chocolate or cheese,) and garden (planting and planning not weeding). She also enjoys spending time on the water when she's not hiking, biking, or snowshoeing, the miles of desolate trails surrounding her home. Kathi uses the mountain setting in which she lives, along with the animals (wild and domestic) that share her home, as inspiration for her cozy mysteries.
