The third novel in the Shady Hollow mystery series, in which Vera Vixen takes on her most challenging case yet: solving the murder of a rat who appears to still be alive.Change is afoot in Shady Hollow, with an unusually tense election shaping up between long-serving Chief of Police Theodore Meade and Vera's beau, Deputy Orville Braun. But the political tension takes a back seat when resident eccentric Dorothy Springfield becomes convinced her beloved husband, Edward, is dead, and that the rat claiming to be him is actually a fraud. While most of the town dismisses Dorothy's rants as nothing more than a delusion, Vera has her doubts. More than a few things don't add up in the Springfield household, but Vera will have to tread carefully, since, with Orville's attention on the election, she may be more exposed than ever. A VINTAGE CRIME/BLACK LIZARD ORIGINAL.

"Love this series. I could not put the book down and start on the next in this series."

"I love how breezy these books are; the perfect length, the perfect setting, everything just fits into a delightful cozy nook in my heart.<br/>God I wish Autumn was neverending.<br/><br/>Vera is up to her sleuthing while supporting her beau into a new road of his career, talk about a multitasking heroine. <br/>This time the mystery was suuuper easy to pick up, but it was still handled in such an interesting way that I really can't complain about it. I had fun while reading my way into another mystery even if I already knew what the plot twist would be.<br/><br/>Here's to hoping that another book (Sans the prequel!) will pop up any day soon.<br/>"

"I absolutely could not put this book down! It kept me riveted and in my room where I can read in peace for an entire day. The story development is great and there is just enough happiness to balance out the sadness. Not to mention the cute romance blossoming."
