Digging Up Trouble

A Sweet Fiction Bookshop Mystery, Book 1

De: Kitt Crowe

Narrado por: Tina Wolstencroft

Life is sweet when you live in Confection, Oregon. Or, at least, that's how it's supposed to be. But on a summer day, when tourists and locals alike gawk at the majestic mountains, quaint Craftsman houses, and lovely flowers - particularly the renowned Confection Rose - the last thing anyone has come to see is a dead body, unearthed from a shallow grave by a curious dog.

A bathrobe-clad Lexi rushes next door to her neighbor's backyard to find her pooch, Cookie, stalwartly sitting watch over a body in the vegetable garden. Cookie, encrusted in dirt, grips a copper pipe between her teeth. Was this the murder weapon? And was Lexi the murderer? It sure looks that way, seeing as she was spotted squabbling with the victim just the day before. The case becomes all the more perplexing when the real murder weapon turns out to be a garden stake. Then where does the copper pipe fit in? And might a more likely suspect let Lexi off the hook?

All the volumes in the Sweet Fiction Bookshop, and all the specials at Eats n' Treats, prove of little help in jogging Lexi's brain to find a solution. Fortunately, Cookie is not finished digging up clues. As the fur flies, can this trusty border-collie mix save sweet Lexi from a bitter end?

Such a fun read

This book kept me smiling the whole time. It was so much fun to read. The author has a great sense of humor. The narrator used different voices so I could actually hear and see each character in my mind.
I actually did not know who did it until the very end.
This book was light and just right for a cozy mystery. I want to read the next book now. I hope it turns into a series. It would be so much fun to keep up with the macaroons and their whodunits.
We Thank you to author! Keep writing this series please!

narrator

I couldn't listen. The double whammy of an irritating child like voice and lack of concern for her dog's behavior got this book returned.

Just ok

This book wasn't great but was ok. I won't be reading the rest of the series.

Too Light and Cozy

Digging Up Trouble is a very light and fluffy cozy mystery. The characters and setting are sickeningly sweet. The story isn't very realistic. I didn't finish it because it was annoying.
