Red, White & A Dog Named Blue: A Chloe Boston Mystery

By Melanie Jackson

Fireworks, fairgrounds, and a dog named Blue-Hope Falls is celebrating Independence Day with more than one mystery.

Chloe Boston is back in a collection of short, charming adventures that fill in the gaps between the bigger cases in her life. As always, Hope Falls is full of quirky neighbors, unexpected trouble, and more small-town secrets than one meter maid should have to handle.

In the title story, Red, White, and a Dog Named Blue, Chloe's Fourth of July takes a deadly turn when she is called in to judge a baking competition at the county fair. What should be a day of pies, prizes, and patriotic fun quickly becomes another case for Hope Falls' smallest-and smartest-unofficial detective.

In Batter Up , Chloe gets talked into joining the precinct softball team and finds herself co-captaining under Dale Gordon, whether she is ready for the challenge or not.

In Searching for Christmas, Chloe turns her sleuthing skills toward a very personal mystery: discovering what she is getting for Christmas.

And in Lights Camera Action, Chloe takes an aspiring young actress along on her rounds, giving her a firsthand look at life, tickets, trouble, and detective work in Hope Falls.

Lighthearted, fast-moving, and full of cozy small-town charm, Red, White, and a Dog Named Blue is the eighth book in the Chloe Boston Cozy Mysteries series. Perfect for readers who enjoy holiday mysteries, short story collections, amateur sleuths, lovable dogs, quirky townsfolk, clean suspense, and mysteries with humor and heart.

Return to Hope Falls, where the fireworks sparkle, the clues are everywhere, and Chloe Boston and Blue are never far from the next mystery.
