Tails Between the Shelves Mystery Series
About Tails Between the Shelves Mystery Series
Welcome to a world where small-town libraries hold more than just books—they harbor secrets, lies, and the occasional murder. In this charming cozy mystery series, six different librarians and their faithful canine companions find themselves thrust into investigations that test their research skills, their courage, and their commitment to truth and justice. From rare book forgeries and property fraud to blackmail schemes and genealogical conspiracies, each standalone mystery takes readers to a new fictional library, a new protagonist, and a new puzzle to solve. Meet Sarah Mitchell and her mischievous golden retriever Dewey in Willowbrook, Rachel Bennett and clumsy Baxter in Maplewood, Emma Hayes and energetic Scout the beagle in Cedarville, Jessica Morgan and her Australian Shepherd Murphy in Pinehurst, Lauren Parker and brilliant Cipher the border collie in Riverside, and Amanda Bradford with fearless Jack Russell Terrier Penny in Oakridge. Each librarian brings her own unique skills and perspective to investigations that local law enforcement is all too ready to dismiss as accidents or simple thefts. But these determined librarians know that something doesn’t add up, and with their loyal puppies providing limited but crucial assistance—a keen nose for hidden evidence, an alert bark at just the right moment, or the discovery of a vital clue—they refuse to let killers hide behind respectable facades. As threatening texts arrive and danger escalates, each protagonist must use every skill in her arsenal to expose criminals who thought their secrets were perfectly shelved away. Through dialogue-heavy storytelling filled with wit, warmth, and genuine friendship, these mysteries celebrate libraries as community cornerstones and librarians as unsung heroes who understand that being a guardian of knowledge sometimes means risking everything for the truth.
Perfect for fans of classic whodunits and bibliophile mysteries, the Tails Between the Shelves series offers clean, family-friendly entertainment free of profanity, graphic violence, and sexual content. Each book stands alone while contributing to a series that proves you should never underestimate a determined librarian with a nose for investigation and a loyal puppy who knows exactly where to dig
