Pedigreed Bloodlines

By Sandra Robbins

Description:

When Leigh Dennison's dear friend and champion show-dog breeder, Addie Jordan, is killed, Leigh goes on the hunt to sniff out the murderer. If only she could devote more time to her sleuthing. . .But Leigh, who has never been a dog lover, now finds herself as the owner of Addie's kennel, which houses a puppy with a bright future in the show ring.

Leigh must overcome one obstacle after another as she sets out to succeed with the kennel and find the person who killed the woman she loved like a second mother. At the top of her suspect list: a homeless Vietnam veteran, a young Cherokee high school dropout, the owner of a rival kennel. . .and the man with whom Leigh is falling in love.

As clues unfold to the killer's identity, she makes another surprising discovery--there's a reason dogs are known as man's best friend.

Book Takeaway:

In the book Leigh, the heroine, faces the difficulty of living with Attention Deficit Disorder. I hope readers will see how those who suffer with this problem are very intelligent individuals and can be successful in life. I also hope that readers will come to realize that Jesus taught us to love one another, and we need to follow His example in our dealings with those around us.

Why the author wrote this book:

When I was a child, I was a big Nancy Drew fan and imagined myself on all of Nancy's adventures. When Barbour began their Heartsong Presents Mysteries line, I wanted to write something that would encompass the sleuthing skills of Nancy Drew and the peace that comes from knowing God is in control of our lives. It gave me great pleasure to bring Leigh's story to life.
