A hound with a nose for trouble and a heart for romance stirs up both in this small-town cozy mystery.

Fairmont loves his new lady, Zella, with all the exuberance of a once abandoned dog. A fluffy dog bed, delicious meals, and exceptional company - what more could a dog want? Everything's grand...until he sniffs out a dead body.

Zella's new life began with the addition of an adoring spotted dog, but adopting Fairmont is only the beginning. Soon she's got a new home, a new town, and a new name. A lovely beginning that's spoiled only by the corpse in her otherwise perfect backyard.

Can Zella, Fairmont, and all their new friends in White Sage find the murderer before Zella's fresh new start turns deadly?
