Amelia works at a pet daycare, where she has learned to trust what a dog's silence can mean. Living with anxiety means she notices patterns others overlook, feels tension before anyone says a word, and sometimes has to fight her own mind just to keep going. So when Biscuit keeps watching the door and refusing his food, and his owner never returns, she begins to sense that something is wrong in a way she cannot quite explain.
At first, the answers around her are all ordinary ones. People get busy. People fall through the cracks. People move on. But Amelia cannot ignore the feeling that Raymond Pruden's disappearance is tied to something older and quieter - old land, old names, and a secret the town has taken care to protect.
As she follows the thread, the polite surface of the town begins to shift. Long-buried history rises into view. Familiar faces grow harder to read. And in a place where everyone prides themselves on being good, the truth may be the one thing no one wants to face.
Best Leave It Alone is the first book in the Good People cozy mystery series, featuring a reluctant amateur sleuth, a loyal dog, and a small town where kindness can conceal as much as it reveals.
