High Jinx

Florida's only doggie-yoga coach and part-time sleuth is back to shake loose a Halloween curse and a killer in this "quirky, charming" mystery ( Publishers Weekly).   When doga instructor Elle Pressley's eccentric new Greek client tells her she's been cursed by the evil eye, Elle shrugs it off. The wealthy old woman is paying her an insane amount for a thirty-minute private puppy session, Elle's Pampered Pup Spa & Resort is booming, and her romance with sexy Irish PI Devon Burke is as hot as the Moon Key island sun. What curse?   Then Elle is invited back to the client's mansion for a Halloween bash and finds a body hanging from the kitchen rafters. Elle thinks that it's much more than a scary prank gone wrong. With Devon distracted by new evidence in his parents' murder case, Elle and her seventy-pound bulldog mix, Buddha, have to tread the investigative waters themselves—and every new bit of bad luck along the way. While Elle's begins to wonder if she really is cursed. A very determined killer is going to make sure of it.
