The Drama Llama Escaped December 9! Did you get your copy?
Watch out for A Prob-llama of a Holiday
I’ve never been a llama fanatic, but I have to say since I wrote about Dash meeting Gumdrop, EVERYTHING has been coming up LLAMAS! A Prob-llama of a Holiday launched December 9 with a fun, online event! Christmas fun, adventure, and mystery all in one great e-book!
Here’s a little sample of Visions of Gumdrop:
Something wet brushed against the back of my right shoulder. I brushed it off like a bug. Then it tapped me again.
“Very funny, Rob,” I said as I stopped to turn around. “What the…?”
My jaw dropped and my eyes grew wide as I came face to face with an elongated nose attached to a furry creature that looked like a cross between a horse and a tall sheep.
Its nostrils flared before phlegm hit me square in the chest. Then it yelled “Mwah!” and collapsed into the sand.
“What the flying fig just happened?” I took a couple steps back.
“What did you do to it?” a familiar voice asked.
On cue, Rob and Alex loped across the beach, more concerned about the creature than the fact I’d been accosted.
I held up my hands in protest. “Nothing. It just fell over. I don’t even know what it is.”
“It’s a llama, Dash,” Alex told me with a chuckle. “Didn’t you learn anything in school?”
Scowling at the two-hundred and fifty pound officer, I shook my head. “I’ve seen pictures of them, but I’ve never looked one in the nostrils before. What’s it doing on the beach?”
Rob looped a rope around its neck, flinching when the llama rolled away from him to sit in the sand. “It’s part of the petting zoo at the market today. While the farmer was unloading the animals, this little guy escaped.”
“Little? That thing’s a full head taller than you and smells like a barnyard.”
He grinned, petting the creature like an overgrown dog. “Aww, did the grumpy detective scare you, Gumdrop?”
“Ha. The grumpy detective nearly peed her pants.” I took one last look at the llama. If I were a social media-type person, I would’ve taken pictures. No one in my family would believe I came face to face with a llama, let alone one that fainted on the spot.
For everyone else who knew me, it wouldn’t be much of a surprise.
