Dognapped?

Dognapped? A dog show detective mystery featuring Kitty and her mischievous miniature schnauzer, Spade. In this adventure, they unravel the mystery of the missing dog -- simply lost, or something more sinister?

A lost dog 

A stolen dog

Me visiting again, pretty sure I've read and commented on this post before but don't see it. Hum, scratches head.

any time, Charmaine :)

Jeff Hargett said...

I saw that title and the first thing that came to mind was "apenapped"... yeah, as in George of the Jungle movie. Flog me for my taste in humor if you must. It can't be helped. :-)

Wishing Charmaine Clancy much success on the book!

Theresa Milstein said...

Such a cute cover and awesome giveaway! Thanks, Lynda.

Michael Di Gesu said...

CONGRATS TO CHARMAINE! What a fun premise. Sounds like a perfect, rainy afternoon read. Even for a dude. LOL.

I will pick up my copy, asap. Missed the free download date, but so what. Our blogger friends need the sales....

ALL THE BEST, CHARMAINE!

Oh this would have been a book I would have loved as a kid. A detective and a dog. Yep, that would have gotten my immediate attention. Sounds like a fun book. Go Charmaine!

Lynda, congrats on your YOU ROCK award!

I've seen this around the web a few times--looks adorable!! Best to Charmaine :)

emaginette said...

I'm a mystery fan from way back, but a twelve y/o mixed up in a murder investigation is too much for me. I can't even go there. :-(

Denise Covey said...

Lovely to see Charmaine's book all over the web. It's a great little book and not at all disturbing emaginette (above). Nice to see quite a few have hit the rafflecopter too.

Lynda, I came across to say congratulations for receiving Alex's award. Much deserved, twang, twang.

BTW, bad news my way. My blog posts no longer update. A few of us have spent some time trying to sort it out so no go so far. Think it might be to do with the 'au' thing, but not sure. Have you heard anything? It'd be nice to have some visitors to my blog, lol, but obviously no one knows I'm even posting, erk.

Lynda R Young as Elle Cardy said...

Yikes. I've heard this happening to a few people, and not just Aussies. It hasn't happened to me yet, but give it time. It's inevitable.

Pat Tillett said...

congrats to her! It has a cute cover.
