Mucky Bumpkin Country Cousin Mysteries Book 2

She's just a country girl who loves her dog. But her life is about to get less countrified and more...erm...homicide. Deer Hollow is a small community built in a verdant, rolling countryside.

But being named a top ten place to live just might have inspired an assassin to make the quaint country spot home.

And secrets she never wanted to discover are rising like the stink of manure on a freshly fertilized field.

So Hal and I─oh, Hal's my boyfriend and he's a PI─are trying to help Arno figure out who killed the troublemaker his mom was standing over with a bloody knife. Yeah, it's quite a mess.
