Someone is trying to sabotage a local wedding venue out of business. A goat invasion during their latest event pushes the owner to call on Charlotte and Declan of the Charlock Holmes detective agency for help. Short on funds, she offers to pay them with a free wedding, which pushes them to start planning their nuptials and collecting other businesses willing to trade detecting for wedding favors.

They're not the only ones---Mariska and Darla are determined to get Charlotte the perfect wedding gown, but that turns out to be a little more complicated than they expected. Declan's Uncle Seamus and mysterious father want to help too—but nothing is easy in Pineapple Port!

Amazon US | Amazon CA | Amazon UK | Amazon AU | Amazon IN | 

Charlotte and Declan enjoy a free honeymoon on the Bahamian island of Duppy Cay in return for investigating who’s been vandalizing the local resort. The trade seems like a deal until someone tries to kill the island’s most colorful character. There’s no shortage of trouble for such a small island—a pirate’s curse, angry ghosts, shipwrecks, hidden pirate caves...

Back in the US, Darla and Frank are kidnapped while visiting friends in Tennessee, leaving Mariska and Bob to solve a murder back home in Florida.


Pineapple Easter Egg: #25 99¢ US & UK

Amazon US | Amazon CA | Amazon UK | Amazon AU | Amazon IN 

Easter eggs surround the body. One of them has a note. Charlotte teams up with Sheriff Frank to solve a cryptic murder in a do-or-dye situation...

Too bad she won't have help. Uncle Seamus and Bob accompany Declan to his charity swim in Tampa, Florida, only to find themselves in pursuit of a stolen life-sized Jimmy Buffett cutout. Darla and Mariska travel to the center of Florida to meet Mariska's newly found cousin at an art festival, where a man with a crush on Mariska bobs up in the lake. After she's thrown in jail as a murder suspect, it's up to Darla and some very familiar locals to hatch a plan, solve the crime, and clear her name.

It's all very egg-citing!

Enjoy as a standalone or as your next fix in the heart-stopping series!

When the eldest sister of the Four Sisters tomato sauce dynasty is plagued by night terrors that she thinks might be related to something sinister that happened in their home, Charlotte and Declan are invited to explore the possibilities. Is the big Florida farmhouse haunted? Has the sister repressed a terrifying memory?

Either way, the detectives aren't sure they're the right people to call, but the pay is good, the food is delicious, and the case gets Mariska and Darla an invite to the sisters' annual Bark at the Moon Pet Costume Contest and Halloween Party. Good enough.

When a giant wolf-dog with glowing eyes prowls the garden, the peculiar nosy neighbor seems up to no good, and the family secrets start spilling at a frightening pace, Charlotte and Declan start to think there's more to the case than bad dreams.

When the body shows up, they're sure of it!

 

Archer & the Bunny - VIDEO

bunnyI had some excitement recently... Archer was barking at a rabbit in the back yard, which isn't that strange. He's obsessed with rabbits—the fact that they run around the neighborhood without his permission makes him LIVID.

I waited until Bunny went to the large hole under our fence that leads to the preserve behind the house and then let him out so he could feel like he did something useful.

But Bunny did NOT go down the hole.

Instead, it freaked out when Archer came close and threw itself into the pool. There's poor Bunny swimming back and forth with Archer, watching over it like the world's worst lifeguard. I run to get the net, scoop out Bunny, and put it RIGHT NEXT TO THE EXIT HOLE. I can't hold the dog AND save Bunny. I can't fling it over the fence like a lacrosse ball. This was the best idea.

Bunny, whose poor head is spinning, decides he'd rather run toward the Kill Box - a section of the yard where Archer tries to trap lizards, etc. because there's a little fence and no escape hole.

NOOOO!

I go running after him again with my long net in hand and drag him away from poor Bunny, who has squeezed himself between the fence and the netting that is there to keep rabbits OUT. Archer has his face pressed against Bunny, getting a good whiff of him for the memory banks.

Finally, I drag all 90lbs of him away, and Bunny runs off to the hole—finallyunharmed.

The back yard camera caught it all! I can tell you I felt like I was moving a lot faster than it looks! 😂
