About this listen
A cop, a pig, and a farmer know something smells fowl.
Secrets are revealed….
Passion is ignited….
Angels get their wings….
Gertrude finds a new buddy in Betty’s new partner, a drug-sniffing German Shepherd named Champ, who is terrified of crowds and loud noises.
Solve the mysteries behind the bizarre deaths of the very bad poet Eliza (“Lizie”) Bone, mystery writer and island slut Tiffany Hyde-White, and flower child Summer Rivers in Murder Most Fowl.
Spoiler Alert: Don’t listen to this book first as it is the wrap-up to the trilogy.
If you love satire and black comedies or are a fan of Carl Hiaasen, Jessica Fletcher in Murder She Wrote, or Miss Marple, then the Gumboot & Gumshoe Series is for you. Murder Most Fowl completes the trilogy in what started with Gumboots, Gumshoes, & Murder, followed up by The Dastardly Mr. Deeds. Thanks to fan emails, the series continues with Gertrude & The Sorcerer's Gold and Chasing Santa. Follow Laura on Amazon or Bookbub to learn more about Laura's series.

After suffering a personal tragedy Abby Sullivan buys a huge old seaside mansion she has never even seen, packs up her life in San Francisco, and moves to Holiday Bay Maine, where she is adopted, quite against her will, by a huge Maine Coon Cat named Rufus, a drifter with her own tragic past named Georgia, and a giant dog with an inferiority complex named Ramos. What Abby thought she needed was alone time to heal. What she ended up with was, an inn she never knew she wanted, a cat she couldn't seem to convince to leave, and a new family she'd never be able to live without.

The death of a teenage Amish girl in a cornfield looks like an accident, but sheriff Serenity Adams suspects foul play. To solve the murder, she must investigate the nearby Amish community with the help of a man who was shunned years ago. At first glance, the case seems obvious. The poor girl was probably accidently shot during hunting season, but when the elders of the Amish community and even the girl's parents react with uncaring subdued behavior, Serenity becomes suspicious.

Story
One month into our stay, we'd managed to dispatch most of our charges. We executed the chickens. One of the cats disappeared, clearly disgusted with our urban ways. And Lucky [the cow] was escaping almost daily. It seemed we didn't have much of a talent for farming. And we still had eleven months to go." Antonia Murphy, you might say, is an unlikely farmer. Born and bred in San Francisco, she spent much of her life as a liberal urban cliché, and her interactions with the animal kingdom rarely extended past dinner.
