Death at the Drippity - Kitty Bergen

In "Death at the Drippity," Samantha White runs a busy coffee shop in the small town of Ryant River, along with her business partner, Larry Lumkey. One day, she and her Chihuahua, Abby, find the body of William Whipple.

It appears that Whipple had recently changed his stance on an upcoming casino project, a decision that sparked considerable tension in the town.

Community discussions revolve around Whipple's death, its impact on the town's future with the casino, and various relationships, all set against the backdrop of a small-town coffee shop filled with suspicion and intrigue.

Suspects include Indy Nichols, the casino developer and son of Betty Nichols, a cleaner for the Drippity Doh Dah; his girlfriend, Enora DeVine; and various townspeople opposed to the casino development.

Indy's business partner, Corbin Skorabinski, is stuck in the middle while waiting for provincial development approval for the casino, but when Abby discovers another body, Samantha, Betty, and Abby, along with the good folks at the Drippity, are carried further into the mystery.

Samantha finds missing documents and questionable officials that may link the project to William Whipple's murder. With the help of Abby's dog powers, Samantha and the town sheriff are set to uncover the culprit.
