Three Dog Island: Book #3 in the Jenny McNair Mystery Series - The Jenny McNair Mysteries, #3

Jenny McNair, part-time and reluctant PI, is settling into life on her island in the Pacific Northwest. Recovering from a divorce and from having solved the mystery of the body buried in her Great Aunt Winnie's rose garden, she is now able to focus on her pottery and her spiritual counseling. However, her serenity is short-lived. First her peaceful life is interrupted by the plaintive cry from a remote island in the Strait of Juan de Fuca. When she and her two new friends discover and rescue three abandoned dogs, Jenny also finds and rescues a teenage boy on the run from a band of corrupt cops. Her calm life is further interrupted by a bizarre art sculpture theft, and finally and most happily, by a new love interest.

Overwhelmed, Jenny enlists the assistance of her detective father, Charlie McNair, and her friend and former professor, Malcolm MacGregor, to solve the mystery of who has betrayed young Josh Mitchell and why he needs to stay in hiding. As Jenny focuses on Josh and her rescued oversized Australian shepherd-Bernese mountain dog, and the theft of a friend's sculpture, Charlie and Malcolm are led on a mystery of their own that involves the fourth book in the Jenny McNair series, Saving Sharkey, which overlaps with Three Dog Island and is written from MacGregor's point of view.
