It's a wedding to die for...
A satiric comedy of manners using the elements of a Golden Age mystery to have some very modern fun with rich people, pop culture, New Yorkers, and occasionally, the French.
BOOKS
Rufus, an Upper West Side bloodhound is peacefully minding his business shredding boxes in the kitchen of the apartment he shares with his human, Cressida Pennington, when he is abruptly thrust into an over-the- top destination wedding. Brooke Kovac, a gorgeous, entitled new money bride has decided that her Tudor-themed wedding to old money Percival Winthrop must take place at Crackshaw Castle, the posh and remote jewel in the crown of the Lemming Event Group. But things do not go according to plan and with the castle cut off by a freak spring snow storm, can K9 Rufus use his nose to help the East Snodsburgh police catch a killer?

Wimsey the Manhattan Bloodhound: A Comedy of Many Errors follows the adventures of Wimsey, a ridiculous, 125. lb. bloodhound living on Manhattan's Upper West Side who does his best to disrupt the schemes of his owner's friend Elizabeth to show him, model him, and turn him into a canine TV star. Whether disrupting photoshoots, baying his way through Westminster, or hobnobbing with celebrities, Wimsey was as impossible to ignore as he was to train. Nothing sad or serious here, just plain, unadulterated bloodhound fun.

Every picture looks better with a hound in it--even if it was painted by Leonardo. So says Wimsey, the adorable and comically egotistical bloodhound who inserts himself into the world's great art masterpieces and then explains why his presence improves the painting. It's an easy, entertaining and fun way to learn about art history and art appreciation. Wimsey's lively commentary and memorable artistic "improvements" ensure that his readers might never look at a painting the same way again.
Take a tour of Manhattan's most famous attractions in the company of Wimsey, a lively and entertaining bloodhound who lives in New York and provides fun photos of himself visiting the sights as well as useful information about all the attractions. Dog lovers and junior armchair travels welcome.
