A Good Dog's Guide to Murder
A Good Dog's Guide to Murder | Krista Davis
5 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
The great Gingerbread Dog & Cat House competition has come to Wagtail, along with another murder to solve for Holly and her supersmart Jack Russell terrier Trixie in the New York Times bestselling Paws & Claws series by Krista Davis! Visitors are arriving in droves to spend Thanksgiving in the mountains of pet-friendly Wagtail, Virginia. Many of them are bringing dog and cat gingerbread houses to enter in the contest that will be held in the new convention center. Wagtail resident Orly Biffle bequeathed the land to the town in his will, provided that they not cut down the grand old oak tree on the property. Orlys children are mighty miffed that they didnt inherit the prime piece of property overlooking the lake. Holly notices that Trixie and Twinkletoes, her calico kitty, are fixated on the big oak tree. Trixie barks at it as though she thinks its a corpse! Just as contestants are spicing up their sweet gingerbread creations, the majestic tree drops an enormous limb. The mayor declares that the tree is dangerous and must come down. When a bulldozer churns up some roots, the tree falls over on its own accord revealing a body inside the trunk! Initially, everyone suspects this unsavory trick was Orlys doing. But it soon becomes clear that someone is trying to keep the truth under wraps. Trixie and Twinkletoes now have to help Holly sniff out some suspects and leash a conniving killer.

The latest in the Paws and Claws series, and a good one! A dead tree near the new town convention center is dangerously dropping limbs. In removing it, a 20 year old mystery is revived…

Many of the familiar Wagtail characters play a part, and we meet a few new ones, including Holly‘s mom! And Officer Dave is finally able to use common sense to eliminate a murder suspect, instead of staunching sticking to the “facts.”

Librarybelle I need to try this series by her! 2y
mabell @Librarybelle One of the few series that I‘ve kept up with! It isn‘t my favorite, but it‘s cute - with the whole mountain resort town dog & cat friendly. The definition of “cozy!” 2y
