Description from the publisher:
Pepper Sullivan just solved the first murder that quiet Misty-on-the-Sound has seen in decades with the help of her trusty canine companion, Mr. Woogles.  She’s hoping everything will calm down now, so she can get back to building her law practice and spending her free time belting out Broadway songs.

But when the town's richest and most famous son, Everett Pursley the Third, comes back to lead the "Lights on the Sound" parade of boats on Labor Day weekend, tragedy strikes again.  The millionaire's wife is found drowned.  Was it an accident?

As usual, Pepper's one-time boyfriend Sheriff Logan Bateman needs her help to figure out what happened—but he doesn't want it.  When her gorgeous next-door neighbor, Dr. Angelo D'Amore, provides an unexpected clue, Logan seems a mite jealous.  And Pepper can't get far enough away from the pesky new guy in town, Josh Devlin.  Nevertheless, the attributes of all three potential "suitors" are gleefully dissected by Pepper's pushy mom.

In the end, Pepper must harness all her skills as a sleuth to uncover the culprit and untangle the mystery of the lady who was launched.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

TREBLE WITH THE LAW is the third book in the Legal Beagle Cozy Mystery series.  Each will stand on its own, but I would strongly suggest reading them in the order of release.

You can’t go wrong with a dog that will try to sing along with you.  Also, I like Pepper and her profession.  It’s not easy to be a strong yet feminine woman.

I enjoyed this fun little cozy mystery.  It’s not very deep, but it is fun.

Note:  While I received this book as a gifted ARC via Booksprout, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
