Bite Off Trouble

When a menacing stranger threatens his employers at a Little Italy bakery, Harald Knapp and his telepathic dog, Alberto, are drawn into a dangerous mystery. After finding the stranger murdered, they must navigate a web of secrets, lies, and suspects, to protect their found family from a ruthless killer. With the Feast of San Gennaro as backdrop, this unlikely duo must solve the crime before they become the next victims.

Dog Gone Dead
Book 1

A telepathic dog, a dead body, and a widow who refuses to roll over.


Still reeling from her husband’s sudden death, Trudy barely has time to grieve before his secrets start surfacing—beginning with a telepathic dog who won’t stop talking. After losing everything, the widow moves into a quirky mobile home park with her outspoken new companion and vows to rebuild her life.
But when she stumbles upon a dead body, Trudy’s fresh start takes a deadly detour. Determined to clear her name, she and her four-legged sidekick dive nose-first into the mystery. Can this unlikely duo sniff out the killer before she becomes the next victim?


If you love witty sleuths, talking dogs, and starting over, you’ll adore
Dog Gone Dead, Book 1 of the 
Paws for Clues cozy mystery series.

Hand Over Dead
Book 2

A fresh murder. A buried hand. And a secret that refuses to stay hidden.


Trudy Knapp prefers to live a quiet live, predictable—and murder-free.

When a body surfaces in the neighborhood pond—minus its right hand—Trudy refuses to get involved. Trouble, however, has other plans. To make matters worse, a neighbor's dog digs up a severed hand that doesn't belong to the body. Trudy realizes that this isn't just a new murder. It's an old secret clawing its way back to the surface. And someone in the neighborhood is desperate to keep it buried. 

With the help of her telepathic Labrador Retriever, Alberto, Trudy closes in on the truth hiding in plain sight. And this time, the killer isn't just nearby—they are watching. 

If Trudy can match the old hand to a body, will she be able to expose the killer? 


Hand Over Dead is the second installment in the Paws for Clues cozy mystery series. If you loved Book 1,
Dog Gone Dead, get ready for more witty sleuthing and canine charm.
