To Kill a Labrador (A Marcia Banks and Buddy Mystery)

The Marcia Banks and Buddy Cozy Mysteries, Book 1

De: Kassandra Lamb

Narrado por: Amy Deuchler

Marcia (pronounced Mar-see-a, not Marsha) likes to think of herself as a normal person, even though she has a rather abnormal vocation. She trains service dogs for combat veterans with PTSD. Then the former marine owner of her first trainee is accused of murdering his wife, and Marcia gets sucked into an even more abnormal avocation - amateur sleuth.

Called in to dog-sit the Labrador service dog, Buddy, she’s outraged that his veteran owner is being presumed guilty until proven innocent. With Buddy’s help, she tries to uncover the real killer. Even after the hunky local sheriff politely tells her to butt out, Marcia keeps poking around. Until the killer finally pokes back.

Likable Mild Cozy Mystery, Well Performed

I read a lot of cozy mysteries with animals. People who do know that animals in cozies behave in a variety of ways. Know that Buddy the service dog just acts like a service dog. I found the narrator very likable and well suited for the role. This is basic stuff, a heroine who butts in to an investigation, a hunky sheriff.
