Muddy Mouth

by C. A. Newsome

Overview

A Fourth of July parade, 89 feral cats, and a missing author. It's nothing Lia and her schnauzer can't handle.

While the dog park gang trains their fur-babies to participate in Northside's famously eccentric Fourth of July parade, starving artist Lia Anderson is building a float commissioned by Fiber and Snark, the cat-rescuing knitting club managing the career of local best-selling author Lucas Cross. Then Lucas disappears at a book convention, someone attacks Lucas's accountant, and Lia is the only one the ladies of Fiber and Snark trust to discover the truth while protecting a secret no one suspects they have.

It's the dog park gang to the rescue. But can they find Lucas before somebody winds up dead?

About the Author

Carol Ann “C. A.” Newsome is an author and painter living in Cincinnati. She spends most mornings at the Mount Airy Dog Park with a zombie swamp monster named Gypsy Foo La Beenz.

Editorial Reviews

Newsome writes with flair and humor, balancing the tension of the novel's mystery against the lighthearted backdrop of the Mount Air dog park.

The charmingly idiosyncratic characters--human and animal both--set the book apart from more noirish works,and the slight goofiness (parade floats, knitting circles) puts the reader pleasantly off balance. ... the author delivers an inventive plot and a sharp and compelling protagonist.
