Hotdog Down: A Denise Reed Mystery

Denise Reed is a good person. She volunteers at her church and a retirement home. Through no fault of her own, she now finds herself unemployed and trying to make ends meet by playing a giant hotdog in a Hollywood movie being filmed in the streets of New Orleans. One day, while chatting with one of the other extras, she is suddenly knocked to the ground where she struggles uselessly to get up while the mugger proceeds to violently attack her friend. Feeling guilty when her friend is hospitalized from the beating, Denise uses her time on the set to see if she can ferret out the mugger--all while trying to find less embarrassing employment, juggle two suitors, and care for her daughter. No, sirree Nothing will keep this hotdog down
