The Greyhound Glide

A dead benefactor. A frightened greyhound. And a pet psychic whose biggest secret is about to unravel.

Fourth of July celebrations are in full swing in Catfish Harbor, Michigan. The beaches are packed, fireworks light up the lake, and the local animal rescue is preparing for its popular Greyhound Gallop.

For Mackenzie ONeal, the towns beloved pet psychic, business has never been better.

Theres just one small problem.

Mackenzie isnt psychic. Shes a retired stage mentalist who uses observation, psychology, and a few tricks of the trade to convince people she can communicate with their pets.

And now her sharp-eyed half-sister Hayley has arrived from Arizona, threatening to expose every trick Mackenzie learned from their father.

But family troubles take a back seat when wealthy rescue supporter Wesley Mitchell is found dead at the bottom of his bluff stairs the morning after the fireworks.

Everyone assumes it was a tragic fall.

Mackenzie isnt convinced.

Wesleys beloved retired racing greyhound, Glide, is discovered wandering the beach wearing a racing muzzle his owner had sworn never to use again. The terrified dog has stopped eating—and reacts with sheer panic whenever he hears one particular boat.

Glide knows something about his owners death. But how can Mackenzie prove it when she cant really talk to animals?

As suspicion falls on a hot-headed rescue volunteer, Mackenzie uncovers troubling connections to Wesleys past in Floridas racing kennels, a mysterious medium who may have been exploiting him, and secrets someone is desperate to protect.

With help from a half-sister who refuses to participate in her deception, Mackenzie must rely on every observation skill she possesses to uncover the truth.

But a skeptical sheriffs detective is watching her increasingly closely—and hes beginning to wonder whether Catfish Harbors famous pet psychic has been fooling everyone.

Someone is hiding behind a terrible lie. And this time, Mackenzies own deception could cost her everything.

The Greyhound Glide is a charming, cleverly plotted cozy mystery set on the shores of Lake Michigan, featuring a quick-witted amateur sleuth, a wonderfully complicated family, quirky small-town characters, and a frightened greyhound who may hold the key to murder.

Perfect for readers who love animal-themed cozy mysteries, clever female sleuths, intriguing clues, and heartwarming stories of second chances.

A clean, standalone cozy mystery with no graphic violence or profanity, a satisfying, fairly clued solution, and plenty of lakeside charm, animal antics, and small-town intrigue.

Mackenzie cant hear what Glide is thinking. But she knows fear when she sees it—and someone in Catfish Harbor has a very good reason to be afraid.
