Belinda Blake and the Wolf in Sheep's Clothing

Exotic pet-sitter Belinda Blake is nervous about her new job at the White Pine Wolf Preserve, but it turns out that the care and feeding of wild carnivores may be the least dangerous part of the gig...

Belinda is no stranger to dealing with wild animals, but she's wary when the owner of a Connecticut preserve asks her to help out with her "fluffy darlings." Her caution seems justified on her very first day, when she discovers a bloodied tour guide lying dead in the wolf enclosure.

Was it death by predator or something more sinister? The body count rises, but something's not adding up. As she gets to know the rescued wolves and wolf-dog hybrids better, Belinda realizes that her human colleagues are not above suspicion. With help from her own "pack"-her pregnant sister, Red the chauffeur/bodyguard, and hunky farmer Jonas-Belinda is hot on the killer's tail, but if she doesn't find him soon, he'll do more than muzzle her to keep the truth from escaping.

"With a well-paced plot, engaging characters, and exotic animals, Gilbert's new series featuring pet sitter Belinda Blake will tick all the right boxes for cozy mystery fans."-Ellery Adams, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author
