Goat Farm Gambit, The: A Cozy Mystery of Chewed Clues and a Kidnapped Kid

?? Dairy goat farmer and cheesemaker Nanny Nightingale is preparing for the County Fair when her prize-winning baby goat is kidnapped and the fair's dairy judge—a notoriously strict official with shady connections—is found dead in her barn, surrounded by suspiciously chewed competition documents. The police suspect a rival farmer, but Nanny notices the tooth marks don't match her goats and the victim's scoring sheets contain coded symbols about milk quality manipulation. With her farm under scrutiny and the farming community butting heads, Nanny must hoof it to solve the case. Assisted by her 4-H dairy club and the handsome veterinary odontologist analyzing tooth impressions, Nanny uncovers a scheme involving goat identity theft, fraudulent milk records, and a sophisticated operation switching premium breeding stock. From suspicious hoof prints that reveal unfamiliar animals to milk composition that doesn't match the breed standards, every clue tells a story. But when Nanny discovers the victim was systematically sabotaging small dairy operations to drive them out of business, she realizes the killer is protecting family farms more valuable than any blue ribbon. With the county fair approaching and the real goat-napper still milking the situation, Nanny must separate the truth from the whey before her own farm gets permanently curdled.
