Pass on the news, dogs of Doggeroo! The Blue Stealer has arrived in town, and he brings trouble. Is this a new case for Jack Russell: Dog Detective? Visit http://www.jackrusselldogdetective.com for details
Jack and Foxie attend Doggeroo Dog Show with Sarge and Auntie Tidge, and straightaway Jack is paw-deep in a new mystery. Dogs are mysteriously ending up covered in mud just before their classes. The dogs all deny that they're doing it on purpose, so Jack sets out on the trail of the phantom mudder. Before he discovers the criminal, he has a close encounter with some scented pooch polish. It's amazing what a dog detective will do in the line of duty! The Phantom Mudder is available as an audio book from Bolinda Audio Books. The UK edition is called "Muddy Mystery", and French Canadian children read about "Le Barbouilleur de Chiens".
The Phantom Mudder is the second book about the dogs of Doggeroo. The first is "Dog Den Mystery" (Australian, Canadian and US ediitions) and "Dognapped" (UK edition". "The Mugged Pug" follows.
When Jack moves to Doggeroo with his landlord, Sarge, he finds a mystery on his paws. Who is stealing his stuff? Who is making a dog den in a deserted house? Who owns the old boot in Jack's new yard? Jack is soon hot on the trail of a criminal, but what he discovers is entirely unexpected. In the course of his investigations, he meets Lord "Red" Setter, the streetwise Foxie and many other characters who will become familiar friends - and enemies - in the series. Dog Den Mystery is available as an audio book from Bolinda Audio Books wonderfully read by Alan King. This book is also available in the USA, (under the same title), in the UK (where it is called "Dognapped"), and in Canada, under the title of "Le Voleur de Bottine".
I have been writing for most of my life, and am probably Tasmania's most published living author (by individual titles, if not by sales or word-count). Apart from writing, I am a manuscript assessor, and run "Affordable Manuscript Assessments". I enjoy walking the dogs, chocolate, watching good sf, food, discussing books, doing school writing workshops... I'm bad at maths, coordination and driving in the right direction. I'm disorganised and messy about everything EXCEPT work!
