This is the third mystery in my Clarissa and Paw Mini Mystery series. Each one features a lovable Saint Bernard helping his owner discover clues and solve crimes. who wouldn't want a trusty Saint Bernard by their side.

I have a wonderful cover artist who does an outstanding job with my ideas for a cover. These mini mysteries are set in the 1990s. That is when I originally began writing them. The first one was an entry in a magazine contest. It didn't win, but sparked my love of writing cozy mysteries.
