A prize-winning pig, a high-stakes rodeo, and a murder that stirs the pen…
Angela Atkinson thought the annual Hummings Hollow Rodeo would be nothing more than an entertaining day of livestock shows and barbecue. But when the brash and competitive pig farmer Bram Cole is found dead in his trailer, surrounded by overturned furniture and wads of unexplained cash, the rodeo grounds erupt into chaos. With his prized pig Thunder ready for the race of the year, Bram’s untimely death leaves more questions than answers.
With her loyal border collie Ruff by her side, Angela unravels Bram’s troubled past, uncovering rivalries with fellow farmers, secretive ticket forgers, and whispers of dangerous dealings that extend far beyond the rodeo. Everyone seems to have a motive—jealous competitors, unpaid workers, and even the mysterious VIP guests Bram promised exclusive access.
Between shady business partners and jealous competitors, there’s no shortage of suspects—and plenty of secrets hidden among the hay bales. Will Angela and Ruff solve the case before the rodeo’s final bell, or will they find themselves caught in the crossfire of Hummings Hollow���s deadliest competition?
Swine and Swindle is the twelfth book in the Ruff McPaw Mysteries series. If you adore intriguing cozy mysteries with beautiful small towns and a really adorable dog, then you won’t want to miss out on Angela and Ruff’s fun and unforgettable cases.
