Birdie and her big, lovable dog Bowser (Woof; Arf) investigate a third mystery in the Louisiana bayou. When a developer offers a cash reward for a bull shark spotted nearby, the race is on between environmentalists and fishermen. But one of the talented latter--Birdie's grandmother's employee, Snoozy--has disappeared. Bowser's witty narration meshes well with the entertaining story's suspense.

In this sequel to Woof, Bowser, Birdie's large, loyal dog, has a second mystery to solve in the Louisiana bayous: someone broke into Birdie's house but didn't take anything. If only Bowser could communicate what his nose tells him! The dog's narration is again hilarious, but it doesn't detract from the serious issues of murder, grief, and job loss explored in the book.

As in Quinn's Chet and Bernie mystery series for adults, Woof is written from a dog's point of view. Bowser, a big, lovable mutt, adores Birdie, his new owner, and is determined to help her solve the mystery of her grandmother's missing stuffed marlin. A possible hidden treasure, family secrets, and a hilarious dog combine to make this an entertaining Louisiana-bayou-set mystery.
