The Better Part of Valor by Mandy Rosko

Ruby is a raccoon shifter and a baker in Blue Creek who is looking for her family. She knows they’re out there, and after the death of her brother, finding his daughters—who were given away against his will—is her only focus. Racoon shifters need to stick together, after all!
She decides to hire a private detective to help. He has to be a shifter, to understand all the variables of the case, and while she’d prefer to avoid predators, there’s something about Paul Lapin that makes her trust the coyote.
She’s especially glad for his professional skills when the family who gave the girls away show up with threats, because there’s no way she’s going to stop now, when she’s this close to a family reunion!
