Death on Beguiling Way (Secret Sleuth, Book 3): Dog park friends' clever cozy mystery
No zen in sight as Sheila untangles a yoga instructor's murder.

Sheila Mackey's settling into life in Haines Tavern -- her new Kentucky home. Sure, she has secrets to keep, but things are rolling along nicely.

Trips to the dog park with her rescue collie Gracie, meeting her friend Clara and Gracie's friend LuLu. Preparing for more work on her house by another dog park acquaintance, former cop Teague O'Donnell. And regular, relaxing yoga classes at the Beguiling Way studio ... until Sheila and Clara encounter a new twist when someone murders their substitute instructor.

Law enforcement says the killer was a passing-through stranger now long gone. Sheila and Clara have their doubts about that. Especially as they learn more and more about the instructor.

Praise for the Secret Sleuth series
"If you haven't discovered Patricia McLinn yet, you are in for a treat. I have not found a book of hers that I didn't enjoy . . . Check it out!" – 5*

"The trifecta: Funny, Clever and clean! " – 5*

"This series meets my criteria for twists, turns, and who-done-its easily. Patricia McLinn does not disappoint with her sharp characters and enough secrets to cover everything. If you like a good, clean mystery, do yourself a favor and read these!" – 5*

"Murder and laughs. Can't wait for more." – 5*

"I so thoroughly enjoy this series and author that when a new book arrives, I drop everything to start reading." – 5*

"As usual, excellent story from Patricia McLinn, well-written with plenty of humor and complex characters. She definitely kept me engaged until the last page, wondering how long I'll have to wait for another visit to Haines Tavern, Kentucky!" – 5*

"Patricia McLinn's writing grown-up entertainment full of wit and charm that should satisfy the most discerning readers." – 5*

"The ladies are hip deep in trouble as usual but it is an enjoyable read to find out what happens. Gracie is just adorable and so are her playmates." –5*

"Oh, yea. These are a lot of fun to read." –5*

"These books are terrific! And, having a collie myself, I have to tell you, the description of the collie alarm system is spot on!" – 5*

"Great series. McLinn's Secret Sleuth series has the same winning components of her Caught Dead in Wyoming series: a likable central character, well developed setting, fun supporting cast, and a great story. McLinn writes intelligent cozies that are a level (or two) above the typical offerings for the genre." – 5*

"Good, clean fun without being childish. The story funny and engaging; and the whodunnit surprising" – 5*

"If you like a clever mystery, with lots of insider dog humor don't miss this series. English lit lovers will find loads of one-liners just for them as well." – 5*

On the spectrum of McLinn's mystery novels, the Caught Dead in Wyoming series is in the middle, The Innocence Trilogy is edgier (and has more romance), and Secret Sleuth is a bit less edgy.
