The Sloth's Eye
Everyone comes to the zoo to see the charming yearly ritual of elephants playfully stomping pumpkins at Halloween. Small mammal keeper Hannah usually thinks it’s not fair—why do the big animals get all the attention? But this year the fun turns deadly: Victor, lover of charismatic zoo director Allison, is found dead in the elephant yard—where he’d been left with a pumpkin carved to fit his head.

Just when Hannah’s feeling lucky to be in the background, Allison reveals her plan to distract the media from the murder: it’s a celebration of the new wombat that she promised to the Small Mammal House. Now Hannah’s swept into the spotlight, and into the middle of some mysterious conflict between Allison and her boss Chris, with whom she’s trying halfheartedly not to fall in love.

But the real trouble begins when she discovers that her favorite sloth has been kidnapped—obviously an inside job—and then, she and Chris are threatened as well. Desperate to find her sloth, Hannah finds out almost too late who she should have trusted.
