I put it on speaker and played it. The man's voice was humorous and teasing. "Macy. What a cute phone message. It's nice to finally hear your voice. This is Leo Moreau. Say, can you give your brother a little message for me? Tell him that he might've won this round, but ol' Leo doesn't give up that easy. Thank you, darlin'."
My heart sank as I texted Titan the news, then called Bo. Leo Moreau wasn't finished with us yet.

next Barks & Beans Cafe cozy mystery,
ICED OVER
Welcome to the Barks & Beans Cafe, a quaint place where folks pet shelter dogs while enjoying a cup of java...and where murder sometimes pays a visit.
Black Friday turns fatal when an armored security truck hits an icy patch and runs over an embankment near the cafe. With one driver dead and the other in a coma, police are baffled by the discovery that $500,000 is missing from the truck's cache.
When strangers show up at Barks & Beans asking nosy questions about a young cafe employee, Macy's mama bear instincts kick in. She can't ignore what her gut is telling her—that things aren't all they seem on the surface—and with a little help from her brother, Bo, and her Great Dane, Coal, Macy follows up on a few leads of her own. But if the ruthless thief beats her to the stash, the thin ice she's been skating on might just crack.
Join siblings Macy and Bo Hatfield as they sniff out crimes in their hometown...with plenty of dogs along for the ride! The Barks & Beans Cafe cozy mystery series features a small town, an amateur sleuth, and no swearing or graphic scenes. Find all the books at heatherdaygilbert.com!
