Peg and Rose Solve a Murder

Book excerpt: Murder, She Wrote meets The Golden Girls in the award-winning author’s brand-new series! Feisty Peg Turnbull and sweet-natured Rose Donovan, beloved aunts from Laurien Berenson’s bestselling Melanie Travis Canine Mysteries, are putting their distinct differences to good use and joining forces as senior sleuths in a witty, warmhearted new mystery series . . . Rose Donovan looks for the good in everyone. With her sister-in-law, Peg, that sometimes requires a lot of searching.

As the newest members, the sisters-in-law come under scrutiny and decide to start some digging of their own. But as their suspect list narrows, they’re unaware that their logic has a dangerous flaw. And they’ll have to hope that their teamwork holds steady when they’re confronted by a killer who’s through with playing games . . .
