The Case of the Itinerant Ibizan

Read The Case of the Itinerant Ibizan Storyline:

It's the start of summer, and Suzy is on a mission to figure out exactly what is going on with Josie's estranged boyfriend, Summerman. Suzy's determined to learn more about the man with a mysterious past and what seems to be his rather unique life, but her plans are impacted when a body is discovered buried in a shallow grave in the woods behind the Doggy Inn. The dead man turns out to be the uncle of Sammy, one of the people who works at the Inn, and Suzy soon finds herself involved in an illegal crystal meth operation that's working on both sides of the River. As she and Chief Abrams begin their work, a variety of questions surface, and as Suzy tries to make sense of the situation and uncover clues that will help them solve the case, another set of questions emerge that soon has Suzy doing some very deep thinking of a personal nature about choices and consequences and the wonder of life. As events play out, Suzy and Josie begin a battle of their own that quickly escalates, and her mother announces plans for a grand-scale project that immediately piques their interest and has the potential to dramatically alter their lives. Dozens of questions swirl and uncertainty abounds, but it remains business as usual around the Inn. In the end, all it takes to remind Suzy about what is truly important to her, as well as help her answer some of the big questions about priorities and choices, is a now homeless Ibizan and a severely malnourished Lab who are both in desperate need of new homes.
