A Thousand Islands Doggy Inn Mystery #17
The Case of the Quizzical Queens Beagle
When Suzy and Josie find a beagle perched on a channel buoy in the middle of the River, soon followed by the discovery of an unknown drowned woman, Suzy soon decides that the only logical thing to do is to bring the circus to town.
Feeling overwhelmed having to dealing with her mother’s endless and elaborate plans for her and Max’s wedding, the construction of their new animal rescue center, and Chef Claire’s announcement that she needs an extended break and is planning to take at least a year off, Suzy realizes that the world she has created and come to love is about to implode.
But since nothing takes Suzy’s mind off her problems like a good murder investigation, she soon finds herself distracted dealing with the victim’s mother and her caretaker and a unique group of circus performers who all have interesting and often sordid pasts. And as she and Chief Abrams do everything they can to figure out who threw the troubled woman and her pet beagle off a boat, Suzy comes face to face with her own insecurities and selfishness, not to mention a weapon she just can’t seem to keep her hands off, a couple of clowns, an elephant, and a wild animal trainer she hates at first sight.
By the time it’s all said and done, Suzy is bruised and battered and more than ready for the next chapter in her life to reveal itself. But one thing she does know for certain; a career in the circus is definitely not in the cards.
The Case of the Quizzical Queens Beagle is the latest installment in B.R. Snow’s bestselling Thousand Islands Doggy Inn Mysteries and deals with dogs, food, and the power of friendship set in one of the most beautiful spots on the planet.

Best so far in a great series!
In the first books in the series it was obvious that the author is a man. There were things about the interactions between the women in the story that he consistently got wrong in a book that is otherwise extremely well written. But by now the interactions between the women read as realistically as the rest of the book.
Loved the book from beginning to end.

A circus?
My hackles were up at the thought of a circus with animal acts , so I'm glad that was true of our wonderful lead characters! This is my fun read between more serious books. I'm sad thinking about the end of the alphabet and the series...... its getting too close!

Different
This book seemed different from the rest of the series. It seemed more serious with less casual! joking between Suzie, Josie and Chef Clare. I had a hard time giving this book a 4. But I still like the series sand hope it continues.

Great story
As always a really good read. I loved the addition of the elephant. Is she going to keep it? I can't wait for her wedding.
