#SampleSample: THE AMBER TOP (An Isabel & Alma Trumbo Cozy Mystery Title)

My recent cozy mystery novel is The Amber Top Hat: The Isabel & Alma Trumbo Cozy Mystery Series, Book #4. Here is the sample excerpt I've taken from Chapter 1:

Chapter 1

Alma was quick on the nod, thrilled the chase was on again. “Righter than rain, Isabel,” she said. “Don’t forget three Trumbos sleuth on your behalf.”

“That’s right.” Blue smiled for the first time. “I get three for the price of one.”

“You didn’t let me finish,” Alma said. “We’ll also call on Sammi Jo and Phyllis Garner as well as Petey Samson. He’s getting his beauty rest but don’t let that mislead you. He’s a ball of fire bloodhound when he’s called upon.”

“Is Petey Samson a bloodhound for real?” Blue asked. “I could’ve sworn he’s a mixed breed, what my folks used to call a pound mutt.”

“Oh, brother,” Alma said. “I wished you hadn’t said that.”

“I’ll have you know Petey Samson is no pound mutt,” Isabel said, shaking her finger at Blue. “His best breeding lies in his bloodhound line,” she said.

“I didn’t know that,” Blue said.

“Pay no mind to Isabel,” Alma said. “She’s just overprotective of her fur baby.”
