Mr. Mustachio Sings Like a Canary

Sam wasn’t living at Chez Celine long before he was tasked with catching a murderer, but his new case is simpler. Joan Peabody died from natural causes. All he has to do is find her will. But as he tries to figure out what the last surviving member of the town’s founding family did with her will, he begins to wonder whether something got done to her. For an elderly lady with a heart condition, Joan had a lot of enemies. In fact, it seems like the only people who didn’t want her dead were the niece who expects to inherit her estate and the childhood sweetheart she spurned. And even they have motives. Meanwhile, someone blew up a mailbox downtown, and there’s a reward for fingering the culprit. Investigating Joan’s death is only earning Sam enemies, one of whom is Algernon after Sam spirits Mr. Mustachio away to the vet. Algernon has secrets he’s not ready to spill, but to find Joan Peabody’s will, catch her killer, and save Mr. Mustachio from an unfortunate medical procedure, he’s going to have to start singing.
