Something offensive is afoot in Emily Kincaid's northern Michigan townβbesides her increasingly cranky friend Deputy Dolly. After a brutally slain woman turns up in an abandoned house, they learn that bodies of dead dogs are being thrown into migrant workers' yardsβa gruesome warning to keep a despicable secret. Clues to unravel this macabre affair seem woven into the manuscript Emily is editing for an eccentric English author. But reading further into his twisted fiction could spell her death. *** "Buzzelli will have you packing your bags for a move to northern Michigan in the hope that you'll find a friend as appealing as Emily and a dog as lovable as Sorrow."βKIRKUS REVIEWS (STARRED REVIEW)
