The Mysteries of Max, Book 8

By: Nic Saint

Narrated by: Joe Hempel

Scandal, Secrets… and One Seriously Stinky Crime Scene!

When tabloid kingpin Dick Dickerson is found drowned in duck dung, the case is as messy as his headlines. The infamous editor of the National Star made enemies everywhere—from politicians and Hollywood elites to business moguls with secrets to hide. But who had the guts to silence him for good?

As reporter Odelia Poole and Detective Chase Kingsley dive into the case, Hampton Cove is rocked by a whirlwind of gossip, scandal, and betrayal—and it’s not just the humans causing drama. Odelia’s feline sleuths, the Fab Four (Max, Dooley, Harriet, and Brutus), find themselves at odds when a troublemaking newcomer threatens to tear their friendship apart.

Meanwhile, Grandma Muffin is on a personal warpath against her longtime nemesis, Scarlett Canyon, her son-in-law’s new receptionist. With all the bickering, backstabbing, and fur flying, Max starts to wonder… will Dickerson’s killer be the one that got away?

Murder, mayhem, and mischievous cats abound in this laugh-out-loud cozy mystery!
