A cop, a pot-bellied pig, and an undertaker know something is a foot.

Sgt Betty Bruce is having a bad day…

Three bizarre deaths and a confession that isn’t a confession…

A severed foot in a sneaker that her pot-bellied pig won’t give up…

A body of a young woman dubbed The Painted Lady has just washed up on shore…

A young detective with an itchy trigger finger tasered her father’s cow and the locals want to lynch him…

Her dead boyfriend willed her his house … and she has been told to stay out of the way of Chief Inspector Tom Powder.

Chief Inspector Tom Powder’s day isn’t much better…

His partner has ruffled everyone’s feathers…

The cases are all stale…

He can’t find any evidence at the house of Betty’s beau, Andy McDowell, to discover what set the man off…and he is drawn into Betty’s other investigations for no other reason than respect for the sergeant herself.

The key to solving the cases hides within the pages of Tiffany Hyde-White’s strange novel, The Dastardly Mr. Deeds. In the end, it is up to Betty to unravel the mystery, no matter the cost.

If you love funny murder mysteries and are fans of Miss Marple, Murder She Wrote, and Twin Peaks, then The Gumboot & Gumshoe Series is for you. This book can be read as a standalone, but you might miss out on some of the fun so check out the discounted e-book copy of Gumboots, Gumshoes & Murder as well. This story has a cliff hanger ending. Stay tuned for the last book in this trilogy, Murder Most Fowl, which will be released at the end of May 2019.

Here’s what people are saying about Gumboots, Gumshoes & Murder

I found this book (Gumboots, Gumshoes & Murder) to be quite fantastic! It’s a funny, cozy mystery set on an island where basically everyone knows one another. Amazon Review

Fun and suspenseful. Nicely drawn characters - both animal and human! An enjoyable adventure. Audible Review

This book delivers exactly what it says it will: an escape into a cozy and picturesque world where everyone has an amazing homestead and some sort of unusual pet. Audible Review

How can you go wrong with a female lead, a pig, a cow and murder! The animals had such human personalities it was hard not to love them. Overall, it was a perfect afternoon listen. Audible Review
