Recently downsized, Stan (short for Kristan) leaves the corporate world behind and impulsively buys a home in rural Connecticut. But small towns don't always embrace newcomers, and Stan becomes a suspect when she's first on the scene of the local veterinarian's murder. Then someone tries to run her down when she's pedaling around the cemetery, but she shrugs it off. Since trooper Jessie Pasquale suspects her, Stan figures she'll solve the case by herself. Not the sharpest amateur sleuth around, Stan manages to irritate several locals. Thank goodness she bakes enticing organic pet treats, for the new friends (the four-legged variety and their owners) who help Stan find her way and ensure she'll not be the next murder victim. VERDICT Good dialog and quirky characters save a series debut that threatens to succumb to Had-I-But-Known territory. Partner with Sue Owens Wright (for pets) or Staci McLaughlin's similar heroine ("Blossom Valley Mystery" series).
