The Ghostly Howl (The Talking Dog Detective Agency Book 4) Kindle Edition

A missing girl. An urban legend. A long-held fear.

The last thing Nala wants to do is chase ghosts, but when a girl vanishes without a trace, that’s exactly what she’ll have to do to find answers.

With no clues about the Ashlee’s whereabouts and few people interested in getting to the bottom of the investigation, Nala and Max may be her last hope, but Nala’s fear of ghosts and an ornery Maine Coon aren’t making things any easier.

Can they unravel the haunting clues before it’s too late?

M. K. Scott is the husband and wife writing team behind The Painted Lady Inn Mysteries. Morgan K Wyatt is the general wordsmith, while her husband, Scott, is the grammar hammer and physics specialist. He uses his engineering skills to explain how fast a body falls when pushed over a cliff and various other felonious activities. The Internet and experts in the field provide forensic information, while the recipes and B and B details require a more hands on approach. Morgan’s daughter, who manages a hotel, provides guest horror stories to fuel the plot lines. The couple’s dog, Janeway, is the inspiration behind Jasper, Donna’s dog. Murder Mansion is the first book in The Painted Lady Inn Mysteries. Overall, it is a fun series to create and read. Make sure to check out The Talking Dog Detective Agency series, The Way Over the Hill Gang series, and Cupid's Catering Company series, too.

Nala and Max go to southern Indiana. Nala is going to stand in as a sub for her friend Regina, teaching a creative writing class. They will be staying at Regina's since Nala will be taking care of Teddy, her Maine Coon Cat. Max thinks he is going to show that cat who rules. A 35 lb Maine Coon is not to be reckoned with and he isn't going to allow a dog to just take over.
During her first class she admits to being a PI when Max comes out from under her desk. And mentions that Max helps her solve cases. A couple of students ask her to investigate a missing student. Her date took her to a haunted house and she hasn't been seen since. Now Nala and Max are involved in going through a haunted house, spirits, a medium and a seance. Will they find the missing girl? Will they be able to talk to her date? Will Nala survive teaching the class? Will Max and Teddy get themselves sorted out and reach an understanding?
Nala's friend Elvin comes down to help her. He doesn't know Max can talk so when Max's hunger for cheeseburgers gets the best of him things can get crazy. This story is well thought out, well written and funny. I love Max and I so enjoyed Teddy too. This is one of the best stories!! I look forward to the next one. I voluntarily received a copy of this book and I voluntarily posted a review. And now I have purchased this book also!! That is how much I enjoy it and I know you will also.

Nala Bonne is heading to her friend, Regina's college so she could sub teach her creative writing class while Regina is away for a week. On the way an Amber alert comes over the radio for a seventeen year old girl from the college who has gone missing.
Ashley's friends and co-students learn that Nala is a private investigator, and ash her to find their friend.

Going to haunted houses, following ex-boyfriends, and being ran off the road are not in Nala's plans for being a substitute teacher. Neither is caring for a cat that Max, her German Shepherd is scared of in her immediate plans.

This is another fun story in the saga of Nala and Max, the talking dog. It has well defined characters, a good bit of humor, and a strong plot line.

I used to watch some crime TV shows where a detective and his dog Max are solving crimes. It was very usual at the time to call your dog Max or Rex. So this book was a nice trip down memory lane, quite cozy and interesting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nala and Max put to the test; failing is not an option.

Definitely a 6-star book. Nala has her hands full substituting a college class for a friend, and, of course, falling headlong into her next case. I had to read this one through at one sitting. Not only were moments of laugh-out-loud bantg)ger between Max and Nala, hilarious (and heartwarming) but also Nala's relationship with Elvin? Hmmmmm , puzzling. Recommend this book to all who enjoy a mystery, unusual animals, and great characters.

Nala and Max are on the case again! This was the perfect Halloween read. It had everything you wanted: a missing person, Max, Nala, a haunted house, and an ornery Maine Coon cat. Can't wait for the next one! I received an ARC and loved it so much I bought a copy! This is my honest opinion.

Nala does a favor for a friend by substitute-teaching the creative writing class. She has no idea that she'll be tracking down a missing girl, investigating a haunted house, and joining a seance. It's just another day in a private investigator's life. Max tries to help but gets frightened by a giant cat or was it a rat?

I loved this episode in the series and recommend it highly to mystery readers.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Delightful Series
Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2022

What a delightful series. Max, the talking dog, is a hoot and Nala, his owner or human companion, has just the right touch of humor to keep others from realizing Max can really talk. Each book can be read as a stand alone but I had a great time reading the series from the beginning.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nola and Max go to college
Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2018
Nala and Max are back! This time they are traveling to southern Indiana to substitute for her friend, Regina, at a college, teaching a creative writing class. While it wasn't her strongest subject, Nala was confident she could handle college students and the writing class for the short time her friend would be gone. Meanwhile, she was supposed to seek out another visiting teacher who wants to collaborate on a book with Regina. Regina needs to make sure he isn't after her book to publish it ahead of her with his name only. Max and Nola will be staying at Regina's house and taking care of her cat, Teddy.

The fun with Max talking begins when he meets Teddy, Teddy is a Maine Coon Cat and is around 35 pounds-not a shy are retiring kitty! Max, who is a shepherd and not a small dog himself, comes racing away from Teddy comparing him to Godzilla! Of course Max can communicate with animals as well as talk to humans. Nola continually covers up her dog's abilities by claiming to be a ventriloquist, and gets herself and Max out of some sticky situations.

While driving to the college from Indianapolis, Nola and Max hear about an Amber Alert on a 17 year old girl who has gone missing. It turns out by a quirk of fate that she is a student at the same college where Regina teaches. Before the first class Nola is substituting for is over, students are asking Nola for her help in finding Ashlee, the missing student. Involving a house with spirits and possibly other missing girls, Nola jumps in with Elvin's help after a phone call brings him downstate to help. What follows is a Halloween worthy story with spirits, a medium, and a midnight seance.

You won't want to miss this latest installment of Nola's PI career and Max's mostly helpful assistance. A fast pace book with places that made me giggle and others that made me hold my breath until I knew things would be okay. Even a couple "ewww" moments with Teddy at the college! A fun change of pace for the characters and the readers, but it made me want to get back to the office in Indy and see what was going on there! Looking forward to that next book!
