Uncovering Secrets: the Third Novel in the Rosemont Series
“As founder and principal benefactor of Westbury’s only no-kill animal shelter, he kept close tabs on the shelter’s finances. He was there to review the weekly payroll.

He settled himself behind the desk in the tiny administrative office and turned to the payroll records the bookkeeper left for him in a folder in the top drawer. He was surprise...d to see David Wheeler’s name still in the column labeled Intern: Court-ordered Community Service with a notation that he’d spent sixteen hours at the shelter during the past week.
