Roscoe Fletcher, headmaster of the elite St. Elizabeth's School, is planning to institute a new film department with the help of a large donation from film director Maury McKinchie. But both Roscoe and Maury are murdered only days after their false obituaries appear in the Crozet, VA, newspaper. The local authorities are stumped, so it is up to postmistress Mary Minor (Harry) Haristeen and her talking four-legged sleuths to find the murderer. Kate Forbes does an excellent job bringing the animal and human characters to life; her reading is clear and understandable. Recommended for libraries with large audio collections and whose patrons are animal lovers.-Ilka Gordon, Medical Lib., Fairview General Hosp., Cleveland Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.
