The Case of the Perilous Puffin


Book Description

Librarian Sammi Cupertino thought her Klutz Curse was the most perilous thing about living in Eerie Falls, Ontario. At least until the annual gathering of the Puffin Rescue Society comes to their town. Sammi's eccentric grandfather gets to play host to the bird rescuers, so Sammi drafts her cute new girlfriend, Constable Courtney, to help with the awards ceremony. But Sammi and her friends find their small Canadian town suddenly perilous when a rescue society member is pummelled to death. To make matters even more precarious, a mundane author has invaded their magical town. Keeping their fae nature out of the author's next book is challenging every resident. Especially Sammi, who runs the magical bookshop, and has a vampiric cat. All are details too juicy, and too revealing to be put in print by the mundane author. Assisted by her cute new girlfriend, her vampiric cat, and the clueless author, Sammi tries to keep her goose from getting cooked by the murderer. Add in rumours of a ghostly flaming pirate ship, and the mystery takes wing in a new direction. Can Sammi and her friends crack the case, and point the feather of justice before the perp flies the coop? And, can they do so without revealing their magical nature to the clueless author? The Case of The Perilous Puffin is the first book in the delightful Eerie Falls cozy mystery series. If you like sassy heroines, snarky talking cats, colorful characters, and a side of spells with your poutine, then you’ll love Alyn Troy’s otherworldly adventures.
