Piped Croakies: A Magical Cozy Mystery with Talking Animals

The Pied Piper shall lead them all astray... A captured audience helpless to its sway. The pipe's infectious music bids them come...and come they will...two by two or one by one.

Just when I thought my life couldn't get any weirder, life upped the strangeness quota to a never-before-seen level.
When a long line of critters, dazed and seemingly oblivious, marched past Croakies, I knew we had a situation on our hands.
Actually...if you counted being unwillingly affianced to a big old pink ogre... I had more than one situation.
Le sigh.
Then someone died. A king declared war on Enchanted. And my situation became a crisis. It would be up to me to find the perpetrator and bring him to justice while wrangling the rogue pipe artifact he used for his nefarious deeds.
Buffalo buttocks! I really do need a vacation.
