    Dog's Green Earth: The home he has made with Lilit and Rochester matters deeply to Steve, enough to risk it all to bring justice to a killer in his neighborhood. 
    When his golden retriever Rochester discovers a body during one of their nightly walks, reformed computer hacker Steve Levitan must look to his neighbors for suspects. Could a killer be lurking along the oak-lined streets? 
    Could someone in the homeowner's association be sabotaging efforts to keep River Bend a well-maintained place to live? It's up to Steve and Rochester to dig up the clues to bring a murderer to justice, and protect the place they call home. 
    A Litter of Golden Mysteries: Everything you love about Steve and Rochester-- in quick doses! 
    In the first of these stories, Steve is learning to love the big, goofy golden he has inherited on the death of his neighbor, and Rochester shows him how to open his heart and his home to his sweetheart Lili. From then on, Rochester tugs Steve along on a roller coaster of cases, from theft to murder to the discovery of an abandoned baby. Familiar characters from Stewart's Crossing drop by, including Steve's best friend, SCPD detective Rick Stemper. Of course there are a lot of opportunities for Rochester to tussle with his BFF, Rick's Aussie Rascal. 
    Dog Willing: Could the mom of Rochester's sweet gal pal be a cold-hearted killer? 
    Who could have killed bookstore owner Darlene Nowak? One of the food trucks venders she angered when they parked in front of her store? Someone from the writer's critique group she sponsored? Did a self-published author she refused to promote write her into a real murder mystery? 
    Steve knows that cooks and creative folks are very sensitive about criticism; but could one of them be angry enough to kill?
