Trick or Deadly Treat
by Livia J. Washburn
It's Halloween in Weatherford, Texas--which means Phyllis
Newsom is baking up a storm of yummy seasonal treats...but
she's about to get even busier unmasking a killer...
While Phyllis and her friend Carolyn are preparing for a
baking contest, her housemate
Sam adopts Buck, an adorable Dalmatian who was hit by a car.
To thank local
veterinarian Hank Baxter for helping the dog, Phyllis and
Carolyn bake a batch of
doggie treats for his other four-legged patients.
But when they arrive at the clinic, the vet is in the
process of being arrested--for
the murder of his wife! Convinced that the police are
barking up the wrong tree and
that someone's been burying evidence, Sam begs Phyllis to
help find the real killer.
Joined by Buck, the friends engage in a dogged pursuit of
the murderer, who will stop
at nothing to muzzle them...permanently.
INCLUDES RECIPES!

Under the names Livia J. Washburn and L.J. Washburn, Livia Reasoner has been writing award-winning, critically acclaimed mystery, western, romance, and historical novels for almost thirty years. She began to write in collaboration with her husband, author James Reasoner, and soon branched out into telling her own stories.
In addition to writing, Livia enjoys photography, arts, crafts, and cooking, but she also loves having a pile of lumber, a circular saw, and a building project. An accomplished carpenter, she has framed houses and built more sets of bookshelves than she can remember, some of which have been filled with the books she’s written. A good day for her includes having time to create something new in the kitchen, on a story, and in the garage.
Livia lives in the Texas countryside with her husband, and her dogs. She blogs when she can find the time at http://liviajwashburn.blogspot.com.
