Murder Unmasked: A Dog Walking Detectives Mystery

by Steve Silverman

Overview

Another Halloween has arrived to cast a spooky shadow across the residents of Diamond Glen. Time to don your favorite costume for the annual pup parade and masquerade ball. But when a Hollywood icon with a killer secret moves into this 55+ community, anything can - and will - happen. From the first victim discovered in the composter to an unexpected death on the dance floor, the tricks of the season quickly begin outweighing the treats.

Sam Whitmore is no stranger to a deadly situation. She's a best-selling crime fiction author, after all. Teaming up with her dog-walking (and not so) ex-husband, Mac, these two neighborhood sleuths find the clues piling up faster than the bodies. Be warned: no one is safe.

How do I know all this? That's simple, I'm their dog or rather, I was their dog. Consider me their guardian angel, although I'm hardly an angel. Let's just say I keep an eye on them. Well, I try. My name is Hueby...

About the Author

Steve Silverman is a critically-acclaimed, award-winning writer/director/producer. Steve’s work has been called ‘Sly’ by the Los Angeles Times, which is his all-time favorite single word review. Theatre includes All About Steve, not a one-man show but a twist on the classic film All About Eve, his horror comedy 666 Westbourne Drive, and his musical mashups Jesus Christ Super Star Wars & The King and I Know What You Did Last Summer, which he co-wrote and directed. Speaking of the force, he’s the force behind the one-woman show festivals 15 Minutes of FEM and the standup comedy show Slideshow, which ran the first Friday of every month for five years straight at the Fake Gallery. Steve is an award-winning writer/producer/director in the world of on-air promotions where he’s worked for FOX, ABC, CBS, NBC, Bravo, several ad agencies and most recently, Hulu. He’s directed Whoopi Goldberg, Reba McEntire, Mindy Kaling, Zooey Deschanel, the original Fab Five from Queer Eye for the Straight Guy on a horse ranch in Dallas, Texas and his all-time favorite, the late and very great Cloris Leachman. You can hear him weekly on his podcast World Gone Good where he talks to everyday people making good happen every day. His first new stage play in 19 years, Happy Birthday McKenna, went up at the Hudson Backstage in Los Angeles this past March to critical acclaim and sold out houses.

Murder Unmasked is the second novel in the continuing series The Dog Walking Detectives Mysteries.

Editorial Reviews

Witty, unpredictable and laugh-out-loud funny, book #2 in the Dog Walking Detective Mystery series does not disappoint.

Author, Theory of Invisibility - Aimee Pitta

If you're a fan of cozy mysteries and dogs, Murder Unmasked is a must-read. Narrated by the lovable and witty canine, Hueby, this fast-paced, funny novel combines the classic elements of a mystery complete with unique twists and layered characters and plots. Silverman's refreshing and entertaining take on the cozy mystery genre leaves you smiling while you eagerly turn the pages with every chapter. Highly recommend.

Author, Lake Pines Mysteries - L.L. Abbott

A dog may be man's best friend, but it's even more awesome when that do sounds like your gay best friend and he narrates a murder mystery set in a 55+ senior community. Even if, like me, you're not the parent of a 'fur baby,' you will absolutely want to take yourself on a long walk with Murder Unmasked. Steve Silverman manages to weave tales that are so hilariously wrong and yet contain so much heart.
