I received this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.
A Biscuit, A Casket by Liz Mugavero
A Pawsitively Organic Mystery - Book 2
ISBN: 9780758284808
Mass Market Paperback
Synopsis: The small town of Frog Ledge, Connecticut, has wholeheartedly embraced Kristan "Stan" Connor's new business - preparing quality organic treats for dogs and cats. On a healthy diet, the animals may live longer...but one local farmer won't be so lucky. As Halloween approaches, Stan is asked to cater a doggie costume party hosted by the Happy Cow Dairy Farm. Part of a local co-op, Happy Cow specializes in organic dairy products, and farmers Hal and Emmalee Hoffman have started opening up the farm for parties, offering a "haunted" corn maze as an added attraction. When Hal's lifeless body is found in the maze, the police at first suspect his wife, but Stan soon learns the dairy farmer had plenty of enemies - from bitter family members to shady business associates. If Stan can't extract a kernel of truth from the labyrinth of lies, she may be the next one to buy the farm...
My review: This was a fun new cozy mystery series. The name of the town is kind of funny. I liked that it was centered around organic treats for your pets. The cutest thing in the book was a doggie costume party how fun would that be to go to. The not so fun part was that one of the owner's was found dead in the maze. I fell in love with this community from the first page. Like normal for me I did not have the exacted killer figured out until the very end. Read along through all the twists and turns and see if you can guess the killer. I have not had the chance to read book yet but will be going back and reading it now. For a fun light read I suggest you pick this book up.

I have a house full of pets: a dog (Sam), 3 cats (Aleister, Calumet, & Licorice), and 5 rats (Blizzard, Siegmund, Nougat, Eros, and Eccleston). I also have a horse that I board-an off track thoroughbred called Harley.
ReplyDeleteLiz-thank you for giving recipes for our furkids-I hope to make some.
DeleteMy favorite pet is Missy the cat--and garden guard. She sits on our porch railing and sun bathes while she guards the garden. If deer, foxes or turtles or rabbits come to eat from our garden, she promptly gives them the Missy go away attitude--or chases them away, and our garden is safe!! Ronnalord(at)msn(dot)com
