Author's Note: This is part 1 of a 4 part series. This series is best enjoyed when read in order. Maggie Boothe has found herself in a bind. Her parents are dead-suspected suicide-but her twin sister doesn't believe it. And Maggie is the one with the skills to find out the truth. But she wants nothing to do with her hometown that harbors nothing but bad memories. Maggie agrees to spend two weeks in the small Colorado resort town of Silver Springs, investigating what really happened to her parents. After only a few hours back home, strange things start happening. And they keep piling up. Maggie finds herself listening to the advice of a tea leaf reader, going on a date almost every night, and following leads that bring her nowhere. She isn't sure she wants to know the truth if it means turning her own world upside down. **Pawsitively Deadly is approx. 220 pages and is volume 1 in The Silver Springs Cozy Mystery Series.
