Publisher's summary

Everyone in the charming Hudson Valley town of Oak Falls expected Flynn Keegan, their handsome blond "Golden Boy", to make it big in Hollywood. So when veterinarian Kate Turner identifies a bone dug up by one of her dog patients as human, no one thinks back 10 years to remember Flynn. Until DNA and a smashed skull prove he was murdered.

With few clues available to the forensic team, the grieving family begs Kate to investigate. His four closest friends plead ignorance. Neighbors and teachers remember the charismatic young man but offer no real help.

Meanwhile, Kate is juggling her eccentric house-call clients, a silly potbellied-pig wedding, and the sudden reappearance of an old college boyfriend. Anthropologist Jeremy Engels, who returns like Indiana Jones from an African dig, is eager to rekindle their romance and offer his help. Together, they plan to crash Flynn's high school reunion, a recreation of his senior prom, and interview his fellow students.

Time isn't of the essence with a 10-year-old cold case, right? Her Gramps is convinced that the killer is long gone, just like the illegally captured brown bear she helped save, now roaming free in the woods. But Kate soon discovers that chains of love can be as strong as those made of steel-and some deadly secrets have put her next on the kill list.

Great cozy mystery

Another great cozy mystery from Eileen Brady. I love the veterinarian stories as much as the mystery!

Enjoyable twisting plot. Had no clue who the killer was. The revelation was a complete suprise.

Really enjoying this series!

I'm a dog trainer of 45 years and former vet tech and get really annoyed by inaccurate descriptions of animals and their care. I read Muzzled and now Chained and haven't had more than a passing eyebrow lift once or twice. They're really fun!

it's very easy to track who's talking most of the time and the performance is excellent.

A Fun Diversion

I've found Kate Turner to be an enjoyable character, full of warmth, humor and wit. Since I take the entire concept of this series with a large grain of salt, I simply enjoy these audiobooks as nice diversions from stressful days. Kate, her friend Logan, and now her re-emerging college flame Jeremy, are characters of enjoyable strength and perseverance.

Honestly, I may enjoy the vet stories as much or more than the actual mystery itself. They're often witty, silly, crazy, or just plain out there. In one sense, it reminds me of reading the great James Herriot books ("All Creatures Great and Small") when I was young. It's the stories that keep me coming back.

Thoroughly enjoyable experience

Love the Dr. Kate mysteries. It's very hard to figure out the murderer. Can't wait to get the next book in this series.
