Chickenlandia Mystery (Shady Hoosier Detective Agency, #3)

Chickenlandia, Home of Fifty Happy Hens and one very tired rooster, is under attack. Dewey, the prize rooster is missing, and so too is Ginger, queen of the laying hens. Ruby Jane and Veenie, gal pals, and retired women sleuths in-training at the Shady Hoosier Detective Agency, take on the chicken-napping case. Their track down the chicken thieves and restore Dewey and Ginger to the royal roost before the big festival begins. The case grows pressing when a ruthless chicken rancher pops up dead in a most unlikely place, and the leading suspect, Hiram Krupsky, Chicken Wing King, sets his cap on dating a reluctant Ruby Jane.
