A Shot In The Bark (A Dog Park Mystery) - Plot & Excerpts
What was the phrase, "Beard a lion in its den?" He wondered if it were possible to beard a lioness. Did they have beards? Lia knelt on the floor to inspect a mold when she heard a rap. Peter looked in through her open studio door. "Can I come see?" Lia was annoyed at the little trill of pleasure she felt when she heard his voice. "Yeah, sure." "How are you doing?" Lia shrugged. "As well as can be expected, I guess. Good days and bad days." Peter got a mental image of pulling teeth from a lioness. Perseverance was needed, he decided. "How goes the project?" "It's coming along. We've got one more set of pavers to do, then while those are curing, we'll do the bench." "I didn't know you were going to make a bench, too." "Madam must have a proper bench from which to peruse her very expensive koi and achieve Nirvana. Lucky for us, it adds another eighteen hundred dollars to the price tag." "So what are you doing now?" "Getting ready to un-mold these puppies." "What keeps the molds from sticking?" Peter asked.
