George was ecstatic, having found Diane, the girl of his dreams. He’d asked, she’d said yes, and now they were planning a June wedding. But when George told his parents, his father pulled him aside. “George, I don’t know how to say this, but your mother was never … well, that much in bed. I strayed and unfortunately, you can’t marry Diane. She’s your half-sister.”
George, of course, was angry and heart-broken, but life went on. And sure enough, a year later, he’d found Linda and they'd set a June wedding date. But when George told his parents, his dad called him aside again. “I can’t believe how bad your luck is. Linda’s also your half-sister.”
This time, George couldn’t take it. He went to his mom and explained the situation. She just shrugged and said, “Eh, don't worry about it. He’s not your father.”

And when they had unraveled its mysteries, the only question that remained was, could they survive the brutal truth?

This reviewer says it best:
As in Houston's previous books, this yarn has all of the elements, a murder mystery, a bit of romance, and my favorite, the wonderful interactions Jake has with his animals, Fred, his golden retriever, and a new found kitten who tries to steal the show. Houston is able to tell his story without gratuitous violence or sex.

Small Town Murder: Midwest Cozy Mystery SeriesBy Dianne Harman
Cozy Mystery
Usual Price: 3.99 Sale: 0.99
Kat only wanted to be part of the convention on how to write successful books, not solve a murder that took place there – the murder of a beloved “tell-all” author. Was that the motive?
Greed, revenge, and hatred are also reasons to murder, at least to people who live on the slippery edge of sanity. Parsons who gamble, women who blackmail, and a number of people with outsized egos make for most interesting characters.
And yet, even with the worst of human nature, miracles can happen.
If you like to feel good at the end of a book, with maybe a tear or two and a smile, don’t miss this inspirational story with plenty of dogs, food, and recipes.
