My review: The Icing on the Corpse by Liz Mugavero (A Pawsitively Organic Mystery #3)
4 STARS
This is a cute animal lover mystery. There is a dog wedding in this cozy mystery. There is a death and it might be connected to a murder in 1948 that was never solved. Lots of drama, relationships, and humor. It is also a clean read.
Kristan "Stan" Connor is single and she makes pet treats and meals as a business. She has been dating Jake. She has 2 dogs and 1 cat and finds a cat on her door step with a note on her collar asking for a home.
There is a celebration on the green on ground hog day when the local historian can't be found. She has fallen down the stairs at the museum. Some thing it might be murder.
Adrian Fox star of Celebrity Ghost Hunters comes to do a episode on the old library. A boxer died in the basement in 1948. The town is in a uproar half wants to stop the filming others want it. Kristan is a big fan of the show.
Kristan has also been asked to help a few people in town. She has trouble saying no. She is also asked to plan a dog wedding on Valentines day. It sounds cute and fun to dress up and make special cake and treats.
The setting is Frog Ledge, Connecticut. A small town that is a farming community.
I have liked this series. It makes you smile while reading it. I hope there is more of this series.
I was given this ebook from Net Galley and Kensington Books . In return I agreed to give a honest review of The Icing on the Corpse.
