Story
Jolene Hartgrave, here! I went from being a top dog lawyer to a hangdog pet psychic in the ruff part of town, all thanks to a pesky curse that gave me the gift of gabbing with animals. But my luck is finally looking up. I’ve teamed up with a hottie police officer and his snarky, lie-sniffing German shepherd to catch criminals. From a murdered fashion icon spinning a web of lies to the killed curator of an occult museum, I’m doggedly helping the police bring the bad guys to justice.

Publisher's Summary
Born from a befuddled muse indeed....
These 12 short stories and one novella take you into the lives of people facing life-changing, unpredictable, and often strange inflection points in their realities.
These stories are pulled from a variety of speculative genres including sci fi, time travel, horror, clown noir and more; but they are tied together with the author’s sense of the absurd and his love of complicated, all-too-human (usually) characters.
The stories reflect the quirky nooks and crannies of the author’s mind: a historian who becomes increasingly obsessed with saving a doomed queen; a dolphin who sees herself in an old prophecy; a future where humans live on separatist worlds—some with excellent pizza; a clown PI who must investigate the murder of his oldest friend mentor; a president who learns that the devil’s promises have hidden hooks, and so much more.
Some are funny, some are suspenseful, some are dark. All of them will leave you thinking.
