Murder is never just a walk in the park . . . When friends Louise and Irina find a dead body
in the local park whilst walking their dogs they are soon drawn into the mystery of who
murdered local entrepreneur Phil Creasey. Phil used to be a member of their dog walking
community – nicknamed ‘the Pack’ – until the death of his cockapoo and the Pack feel they owe
it to Phil to investigate his death. But with Louise and Irina leading the charge it isn’t
long until they’re neck-deep in local gangs stolen motorcycles and a disturbing string of
poisonings. Have the Pack bitten off more than they can chew or can they follow their noses
and solve the crime? The Dog Park Detectives is a joyous and fur-ociously entertaining
murder mystery for fans of dogs and cosy crime and the first in a pawfully exciting new series
that is perfect for fans of Richard Osman and Robert Thorogood. ‘More good dogs than I'
ve ever seen in a single book! Oh and a grisly puzzling murder to solve with lots of twists
and red herrings. But really I' m here for the pooches and you should be too’ Antony
Johnston ‘Howling good fun with a plot twisty enough to get any dogged armchair detective
barking up the wrong tree. I loved it – just don' t tell my cats!’ Fiona Leitch ‘Adored
The Dog Park Detectives ! Brilliantly written with quirky characters dogs and a dash of
murder I ripped through this in two sittings. Perfect cosy crime’ Lisa Hall ‘A pacy and
entertaining murder mystery that’s a must-read for all dog-loving crime fans. Go the Dog Park
Detectives!’ A. K. Turner ‘Totally PAWSOME – I was hooked from the very first page and Mara
weaves a special cosy magic throughout with rich characters and a fascinating twisty plot. A
brilliant whodunnit and all delivered with the deftest of touches. Unputdownable!’ Jonathan
Whitelaw author of The Bingo Hall Detectives ‘An absolute delight to read. Like a lovely
summery stroll in the park - specifically the dog park’ Kat Ailes author of The Expectant
Detectives ‘A fun murder mystery with plenty of leads to get tangled and clues to sniff
out!’ Sarah Yarwood-Lovett ‘I loved it. As someone allergic to furry animals it was nice
to hang out fictionally with "the Pack" as they sniffed out the evidence and did their best not
to tangle up dog leads on their quest to find a murderer. With memorable owners and even bigger
dog personalities this series is set to run and run’ Joy Kluver
