The Quiet Corner Kerfuffle: Where even the dog has a rap sheet

By Susan M Markland

Welcome to Putnam, Connecticut-a charming mill town where gossip travels faster than Route 44 traffic and every resident has an opinion, a secret, or a casserole dish to return.
For Lois Hartley, retired Air Force mechanic and reigning queen of leopard print, life is already loud enough. Between wrangling her tiny terror of a terrier, Chomper, and keeping her flamboyant best friend RayRay from spiritually combusting, she has her hands full.
But when the Mayor sets his sights on buying Pete Mello's historic family mill, the town's Spring Fling festival erupts into chaos. A sabotaged event, suspicious threats, and a string of strange incidents push Lois and her Posse-RayRay, Tank, Tilly, and Pete-into a mystery none of them asked for.
As tensions rise and loyalties wobble, Lois discovers that someone in Putnam is hiding more than a bad attitude. And when the festival goes spectacularly off the rails, she realizes the kerfuffle is bigger, messier, and far more dangerous than she imagined.
With humor, heart, and a cast of unforgettable characters, The Quiet Corner Kerfuffle blends cozy mystery charm with small-town chaos, proving that found family is everything-and that even the quietest corners have stories to tell.
Perfect for fans of character-driven mysteries, ensemble chaos, and dogs with questionable morals.
