Farmcall Fatality
2014
In this first book of the Mandy Bell DVM series, Mandy is summoned to a small Midwestern town called Crestview. A colleague and classmate from vet school has passed away and left her veterinary clinic and house to Mandy. While Mandy has always been a traveling vet in her motor home, she finds herself drawn to the Midwestern hospitality that the town shows her and her sidekick Border collie, Lyle. Unfortunately, on one of her farm calls, she discovers a body that turns out to have been murdered. She is determined to solve the murder to clear the name of the quaint little town. She uses her own intuition and careful questioning of townspeople and clients to piece together the culprit at fault. Lyle is by her side through the whole book, including at the town’s Halloween Hoedown, where she gets into trouble of her own. Read on to experience life as a small town veterinarian with a knack for solving murders.

Pasture Postmortem
2014
In the second book of the Mandy Bell DVM Series, Mandy’s life is action-packed. First, her RV floods, waking her up. Then she finds herself in a sea of ailing cattle after a cattle truck has been struck by a train. Recovering from the drama of that disaster, Mandy then has to treat over ten dogs who all get overdosed with cattle pour on. Trying to take a break from it all, she takes Lyle, her constant companion and Border collie, to a farm to frolic with sheep. Instead of a day off, she discovers a body, which turns out to be the most mysterious murder the Crestview police department has ever seen. The cause of death takes days to determine, since there was no murder weapon or wound on a perfectly healthy, but dead body. Mandy’s reluctance to stay in Crestview is pushed aside as she devotes herself to solving this murder. Her dedication to the case finally leads her to the murder weapon, motive, and murderer. The question is, will she rat the murderer out before he or she kills her?
