De: Jeffrey Poole

Narrado por: Bob Johnson

When Jillian Cooper purchased one of Pomme Valley's historic properties, Highland House, little did she know a violent murder happened there over 70 years ago.

Tasking Zack and the dogs with disproving the rumors that Dame Highland's ghost walked the halls, guarding her long hidden treasure, Jillian moves forward with her plans to turn the historic house into a bed-and-breakfast. However, when an "accident" claims the life of a contractor, it becomes apparent that someone doesn't want people snooping around the house.

Can Sherlock and Watson, along with their pack of humans, prove the ghost is a fake? Will the corgi crime fighters put a stop to the shenanigans before another tragedy can happen?

If you've never met these two fun and furry crime solvers (Mr Sherlock and Ms Watson) and their widowed humans, you're missing a lot of fun! Zack's girlfriend Jillian has bought a massive historic house and is having it renovated into a B&B. The house has a lot of interesting history and is said to be haunted as well as having a fortune in jewels hidden away in it. All of the characters certainly are, and the sleuthing is well done with lots of bootleggers nooks and hidey holes as well as good natured rivalry among friends. Loved it! Easily a stand alone, but why?.
Bob Johnson aces the narration with just the right touch that highlights the humor by downplaying the guffaws.
I won this audio in a giveaway.

Would make a great TV movie

In this installment, Zack, his girlfriend Jillian, and corgis Sherlock and Watson go on the hunt for missing jewels in a "haunted" house. The twisty plot (which mirrors the twisty corridors and hidden rooms in the mansion of a 1920s socialite) was intriguing, but it was the corgis and Bob Johnson's narration who stole the show, as usual. I enjoyed this installment more than most in this easy-going, enjoyable series. (Minor cursing)

I received a promo code for this title and am leaving a voluntary and honest review.

Sherlock and Watson Mystery Solvers

The dynamic Corgi duo are at it again along with their owner Zack. Zack's girlfriend Jillian Coopers unknowingly buys a house steeped with murder and a mystery. The moment Jillian starts to have the home repaired mysterious things seem to happen from the death of a construction crew member to trap laden hidden rooms. The storyline is well thought out and phenomenally written. This book contains all the elements of a good story intrigue, murder, revenge, comic relief and oh yeah a curse. I loved all the twist and turns and quirky characters. Move over Scooby doo the dynamic Corgi's are coming to the rescue. I highly recommend this book. This is my honest unbiased review.

Sherlock strikes again!

This one started out a little different, with a haunted house! I was wondering if the author was going to stay to true crime, or go a bit paranormal. He stayed true crime.

It was very interesting because it revolves around a crime that happened many years ago. And it goes full on Scooby-Doo with a house and secret compartments! It was a lot of fun.

I do have two small gripes with the book though.
1. When they found some old, prized possessions of the woman who had owned the house, they never circled back around to the woman's niece they talked to earlier. I think that would have been nice and good closure for the old woman.
2. They never found out what happened with the two robbers from the past who were MIA for a week, then found.

Hey, though other than that, two unanswered questioned I wanted answered, this book was fantastic. The voice is superb, the audio narration is brilliant, and I'm looking forward to many more books in this series!
