Maybe it’s the time that I am driving around, but I just don’t see as many animals around town like I used to. I noticed the other day that I have not seen the turkeys that use the crosswalk in front of the police station, or the chickens at the Walgreens. I haven’t seen a cow running down the road in a year or so. This is making me very uneasy. I loved seeing all the critters around town. There is an oddly placed bull in some lady’s yard by the train station. It’s a modest sized yard. He seems content, but it is weird to see him hanging out chomping on grass in the middle of town. I’m going to keep my eyes open and see if I am just missing the usual critters, or if there is something more sinister going on.

Connie Petretta can think of no other option but to sell the beach front condo she recently inherited from her beloved aunt, but a murder in the apartment next door stalls her plans. As she tries to prove her friend and neighbor’s innocence, she contemplates keeping the condo and opening a jewelry shop in Sapphire Beach, where tourists abound, to showcase her handmade creations.
