OverviewWhen funeral director Cole Sheridan sees a crooked, hand-painted sign that reads TALKING DOG - $20, he assumes it's a joke. It isn't. For twenty dollars, Cole meets Mulligan-a scruffy, fast-talking ragamuffin mutt who not only talks, but negotiates contracts, makes outrageous demands, and claims a shadowy past filled with secret missions, high-stakes poker games, and suspicious international connections. Against his better judgment, Cole brings Mulligan home, instantly discovering that life with a talking dog is less ""man's best friend"" and more ""tiny criminal mastermind with fur."" What follows is a wildly funny, high-spirited adventure through absurd funeral-home mishaps, over-the-top schemes, and one very non-negotiable demand: Mulligan intends to marry an elegant Afghan hound named Farah, and he expects a full-scale wedding-budget, guest list, and seating chart included. Talking Dog $20 is a sharp, charming comedy about chaos, companionship, and what happens when a perfectly normal life collides with a dog who absolutely refuses to be normal.

Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationMartin Thompson is a longtime funeral director, storyteller, and observer of human nature. Drawing on decades spent beside families in their most meaningful moments, he brings humor, heart, and authenticity to every page. His writing blends real places, real emotions, and a belief that even in life's heaviest moments, joy has a way of showing up-sometimes on four legs.The Mulligan Chronicles series grew out of Thompson's Texas roots, his love of storytelling, and his fascination with the unexpected ways humor and hope intersect with grief, faith, and friendship. He lives in Texas with his wife, Janice, and their two dogs-one of whom firmly believes he can talk, which has proven mildly embarrassing during morning walks and deeply inspirational for a certain fictional ragamuffin mutt.
