Melanie Travis and her pedigree poodles are back on the case in an adorably giftable, fall time-themed caper by award-winning author Laurien Berenson! It s autumn in Connecticut and there s a chill in the air, the fall leaves are a riot of color, and pumpkin spice is the flavor of the season. Melanie Travis is perennially busy, of course but when the owner of a local pet supply shop is found murdered, sleuthing tops her To Do list . . . Between taking care of her family and assorted Standard Poodles, Melanie is also working as a special needs tutor for Howard Academy, a private school in Greenwich, where her younger son attends kindergarten. This year, the headmaster has come up with an idea for a fundraiser. All students will participate in a town-wide treasure hunt, with grades competing against each other. Tokens shaped like pumpkin spice muffins have been hidden in downtown stores. Students will scramble to collect as many as they can in exchange for prizes. At first all goes smoothly, and the uptick in foot traffic to the stores is a win-win. . . . Until the pet supply shop owner lodges a complaint. When Melanie stops by to smooth things over, she instead finds the man dead, a knife in his back, and his loyal, ever-vigilant Chow Chow locked in the storeroom. Over the headmaster s objections, Melanie is once again drawn into an investigation. It doesn t take her long to gather a list of suspects, from neighbors balking about the number of rescue Chows the man was fostering, to the landlord who d filed an eviction notice against him, to his bitter ex-wife. With the fundraiser soon drawing to a close, Melanie will have to follow every clue before the biggest prize is staying alive . . .
