Ripped Bodice

In the latest from the New York Times bestselling author of Murder of an Open Book, a school psychologist has her hands full after a school board sourpuss meets a bitter end...

With her morning sickness finally abated, Skye Denison-Boyd
is ready to pounce on the pertinent problems she faces as
Scumble River Elementary School’s psychologist. After trying
almost every trick in the book to aid a handful of socially
awkward fourth grade boys, Skye opts for the innovative
approach of pet therapy with the assistance of the local
vet, a Siberian husky, and a Maine coon cat.

Unfortunately, the first session only breeds disaster and
draws the ire of cantankerous school board member Palmer
Lynch. But Skye’s worry over the episode changes to dread
after Lynch is found dead in his home with the therapy cat
hidden in his garage. With a clowder of questions unleashed,
Skye finds herself dealing with a killer who isn’t
pussyfooting around…
