“What’s
Mutt Madness?” you ask? Why, it’s a party to celebrate the upcoming release of
To Fetch a Scoundrel, the 2nd installment in the Mutt
Mysteries series. We know, we know…March 3rd is weeks away! And you want to hear
more about these four fun “tails” of scandal and murder NOW! So, we’ve
designed a series of posts over the next week which will share with you a story
summary, and also some insight into where the authors found inspiration for
these "tall tails."
Today’s
feature is…
“THE
FAST AND THE FURRIEST” by Heather Weidner
Isn’t
there enough action under the lights at the Amelia Race Track without the drama
of a love triangle? An altercation leads to murder, and owner Cassidy Green and
her Rottweiler Oliver have to uncover clues and find the killer before the bad
publicity destroys her business.
Years
ago, my dad raced cars. He and my husband love to go to the races, especially
the short tracks. I set “The Fast and the Furriest” at a make-believe racetrack
in Amelia County. Running a racetrack was the perfect job for Cassidy and her
pal, Mr. Oliver (the track’s director of security).
Thanks, Heather. Now I understand your relationship with racing!
ReplyDeleteIt's fun to see what situations these authors devise for these stories! Heather Weidner's "The Fast and the Furriest" takes you to a small-time racetrack, and you can feel the grit--and the personality--of the track. You can also feel the Cassidy's tension as she tries to keep the track viable!
ReplyDeleteExcited to read your story, Heather! So proud of everything you guys have accomplished!
