Louise and the Pack are back in another pawfully intriguing mystery . . .
When Yaz and her dog Herc find a dead man on a bench along the canal with chicken bones lying around him, she immediately calls Louise – and the police.
The case is odd: a chicken bone has been forcibly rammed down the victim’s throat, and the last person to see him was their friend – and Pack-mate – Claire. When the police take Claire into custody, the Pack mobilize, determined to find the real killer.
The trail leads them to the new Cluckin’ Good Chicken shop, who not only have a gang that loiter outside, smoking weed and harassing passers-by, but have also managed to create issues with local businesses. When Louise talks to her friend and local property developer, Annabel, she is warned off. Then when she finds Annabel beaten and barely conscious in Partridge Park, the Pack wonder if the harassment has escalated to assault . . . and potentially murder.
As their investigation into the chicken shop’s ownership leads to links with shell corporations, and even possibly the local council, Louise finds herself in danger.
Can the Pack sniff out the killer and get to the bones of the mystery?
