Dead Dogs and Englishmen (An Emily Kincaid Mystery) ReviewNot many writers are brave enough to start a novel with a description of tentworms. I mean, really: "Each of the sticky, white webs woven into the blackened and sickly trees writhed with thousands of worms...in June, the worms tore open their throbbing webs and marched up the newly leafed oaks and maples, chewing as they climbed, stripping every tree...."
It's like my life, the narrator tells us. Upside down, and backwards. Indeed "Dead Dogs and Englishmen" is the story of emergence--of the Emily Kincaid, fledgling writer and independent woman, and of her friends--Deputy Dolly, old Henry Mockerman, and Emily's companion dog Sorrow.
But there's more: when the lush Northern Michigan landscape is stripped bare of its leaves and the woods turns dry and the earth cracks open, Emily finds a twisted evil, almost beyond imagination. It comes first in the form of dead dogs, then missing people, and -- ultimately -- human corpses.
I don't want to give away the story by answering the questions (Who's the murder? Who's the father? Where's the missing family? Why all the intrigue in sleepy, agricultural northern Michigan?) I'll just say that this is one heck of a good book, excellently crafted and interspersed with humor and fun. And it's a wonderful depiction of Northern Michigan: trust me--I live there.Dead Dogs and Englishmen (An Emily Kincaid Mystery) Overview
"Buzzelli will have you packing your bags for a move to northern Michigan."—KIRKUS REVIEWS (starred review)

Something nasty is afoot in Emily Kincaid's northern Michigan town—besides Emily's increasingly cranky friend Deputy Dolly. When the body of a brutally slain woman turns up in an abandoned farmhouse, Emily and Dolly uncover a disturbing pattern. Bodies of dead dogs are being thrown into migrant Mexican workers' yards—a gruesome warning to keep someone's despicable secret.

Clues to unravel this macabre affair seem woven into the manuscript Emily is editing for Cecil Hawke, an eccentric English author. Each page paints an eerily familiar picture of intimidation, madness, and murder. But reading further into the Englishman's twisted fiction could spell Emily's untimely death.
