Reseñas de la Crítica

"The story has a Nancy Drew style to it...fun and upbeat with a mystery that's intriguing, engaging, and is perfectly fitted to the witty duo of Luffy and Jasmine...funny, charming, lighthearted." (Readers' Favorite)

enjoyable mystery with talking dog

I really enjoyed listening to this book on Audible. I love when the animal has a special role, and this dog helped solve the mystery. I also really liked the actor reading the story and doing the voices. I was looking forward to the next book in the series, but was disappointed to see that the next one is by a virtual voice; I don’t like those.

Jaz and Luffy are on the Case

In the small town of Blackwood Cove a body is discovered dead in the water. Young Jasmine Moore feels that it is not as simple as many believe so with the blessing of the Sherriff the newly deputized Jaz and Luffy are on the case. Jaz soon discovers that there is a lot more to the victim than anyone could know. I loved the Nancy Drew type story that is phenomenally written with characters that will keep you guessing until the end. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves cozy mysteries. This is my honest unbiased review that I am leaving of my own volition.

A little disappointed

I really wanted to like this book, but was disappointed. It would be great as a YA story, but found it a little to almost childish for my tastes. The narrator's voice for the dog drove me nuts listening to it. No real depth to the characters or plot. Just nothing to really make me want to keep turning pages.

good listen

This was an entertaining and enjoyable sleuthing story. I liked the dog and human interactions. I would happily listen to more in this series. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job bringing it to life.

Enjoyed

Enjoyable story about Blackwood Cove, Jasmine finds there was something going on with all the strange happenings and murder. Good Narration
