Rescue on Gooseberry Bay: Orphan Andy

Bexley Cosgrove knows what it means to be left behind. As a child, she was abandoned and would surely have died if not for the actions of a stray dog who found and took care of her. That dog didn’t just save her life; he gave it meaning. Now an adult, Bexley has made it her mission to return the favor—one rescued animal at a time. With a heart as big as her rescue ranch, she fights for every lost and forgotten soul, determined to give them the second chance she was once provided.

When Bexley stumbles upon a stray dog behind the Gooseberry Bay Adoption Center wearing a cozy sweater and a collar with the name "Andy" she immediately knows something is off. This isn't just another abandoned pup. Andy was clearly loved and clearly cared for, and yet, no one has reported him missing. Determined to find Andy’s family, Bexley takes him back to the cottage on the peninsula and starts digging. Her search leads her to a quiet, seemingly deserted home, with signs of recent activity, and neighbors with stories that don’t quite add up. While her friends insist the family likely just moved and deserted the dog, Bexley can’t shake the feeling that something deeper is going on. As she follows the clues left behind, she uncovers a mystery riddled with secrets that may have been better left buried.

With Friendsgiving around the corner, Bexley finds herself juggling a dog with a secret, a case with no clear answers, and a holiday that promises more twists than turkey.
