About the book: Who would have thought leading an elephant down Highway 64 could lead to murder? When a carnival train crashes in front of Summer Meadows’ house, she does what comes naturally she acts without thinking and volunteers to lead an elephant a mile down the road to the fairground. The animal’s trainer follows close behind but disappears when they reach their destination. When Summer goes looking for her, she finds something altogether different. A woman hanging dead in the shower of one of the trailers.
Despite her boyfriend, Ethan Banning’s’s advise, Summer sets out to solve this murder, resulting in a carnival slew of mishaps and adventure. Not only for herself, but for Ethan too. Not wanting her out of his sight, Ethan tags along on nighttime stakeouts, almost making Summer forget why they spied in the first place. When his life is in danger, Summer faces a life-long fear to rescue the man she loves.
Come back  June 20th for Trish Perry.
