TRUST ME; when I find out who it is, they'll wish all I did was whisper. No one messes with my dogs. When my wealthy husband passed, he left me too enough money to live, but I needed to do more than that. I needed a purpose. So, I took that money and put it all into the local animal shelter. I'm not afraid to admit that I'm a sucker for a furry, four-legged friend in need.When reports of dogfighting resurfaced in our city, I knew it was only a matter of time before our shelter would be overrun with the innocent victims of this heinous crime.As the shelter manager, I make it my personal mission to rehabilitate these pups and give them the love and care they deserve so they kind find their furever homes. But just when I think I've got everything under control, a new problem arises: a hot-headed politician is pushing to ban these dogs from our town.It's clear that this so-called politician has never met a love-starved dog in their life. But the situation takes a dangerous turn when dogs start disappearing and one of their owners is murdered. I know this isn't a simple case of dognapping - something much more sinister is going on, and I must stop it.With the help of my trusty furry companion and some unlikely allies, I'm determined to get to the bottom of this mystery. I'll go undercover at the dogfighting rings if I have to, all to rescue those innocent dogs and stop the killer in their tracks.I may not be a detective by trade, but I've got a nose for trouble and a heart full of love for my four-legged friends. This case is personal, and I'll stop at nothing to solve it.
