Ruff'd Up: A Melanie Bass Mystery - Paperback

As she looks forward to the return of warm summer days in her native Connecticut, visiting nurse Melanie Bass has more than difficult patients to contend with. She is haunted by guilt over a home invasion she feels she could have prevented, struggles to reconnect with her difficult-and until now distant-older sister, and faces complications in her personal life when an attractive new veterinarian seems to have designs on Melanie's boyfriend. Just when she thinks things can't get any worse, there is another brutal attack-this time on someone she loves. As the stakes mount, Melanie struggles to deal with her complicated personal life and find and stop those threatening the ones she loves before she is the next victim.
