Izzy McHale wants her new Trendy Tails Pet Boutique in
Merryville, Minnesota, to be the height of canine couture
and feline fashions. But at the store’s opening, it turns
out it’s a human who’s dressed to kill…
Izzy’s own beloved pets are dressed to the nines for the
grand opening of Trendy Tails. Feisty feline Jinx is large
and in charge, and happy mutt Packer is lapping up the
attention. Izzy and her best friend Rena have their hands
full meeting Merryville’s menagerie and serving tasty
pupcakes and kitty canapes from their “barkery.” The last
thing they need is the town’s local activist, Sherry Harper,
scaring off customers and getting tongues wagging by
picketing the event. The two manage to stop
Sherry’s protest in its tracks, but the trouble for Trendy
Tails is just beginning. Sherry is found murdered in back of
the shop, and Rena is immediately named as the lead suspect.
Now Izzy and her furry friends have a new pet
project—collaring a killer.
