Eleven-year-old Micah Stevens intends to free the dogs from a puppy mill in the woods outside of town.

Gloria Downing is coming home after a decade running from her past. On this Indian summer evening in October of 1981, the little town is about to add several chapters to its long and bizarre history.
Come along as award winning novelist, Chris Morrow, gives you the grand tour of Toulouse. Meet the colorful array of town’s people. Have a drink down at the Nickel or a slice of pie at the Dandelion Diner. Just keep in mind that even the prettiest little towns harbor very dark secrets.

    Suffolk UK, 2012. Knotweed is invasive and ugly - and so is murder in Suffolk. A body is found near the railway line in Needham Market, and Nick Cowley's phone goes missing. Could anyone have guessed the repercussions? 
    Another body is discovered, and police investigations follow tenuous trails from Bury St Edmunds to Woodbridge, Felixstowe, and beyond. Murky innuendo takes its toll but is it sufficient motive for murder? Into this mix throw a turkey farm, winery, and a French flea market pot and you have the ingredients for a perfect murder. 
    Nick, Chrissie and Matt, friends since their Utterly Academy days, pull together as they face unpleasant truths and resolve their conflicting gut instincts. But hard evidence is required. 
    This is book 5 in the Utterly Crime Series, and can be read as a standalone.

    While Augusta Hawke is a successful author of eighteen crime novels, since her husband's death, she's been living vicariously through her Jules Maigret-like detective Claude and his assistant Caroline. Then a handsome police detective appears investigating a real-life mystery.
    
    Where are her neighbors, the Normans? No one has a clue what's happened—except Augusta. Although she isn't nosy, spending all day staring out the windows for inspiration means she does notice things. Like the Normans arguing. And that they've been missing a week.
    
    Once the Normans' car is found abandoned, Augusta senses material for a bestseller and calls on the investigatory skills she's developed as a crime writer. But she soon uncovers long-hidden secrets and finds herself facing real-life dangers her characters never faced . . . ones she can't write her way out of.
