Review – Dog-Gone Dead

December 9, 2020 By The Suspense Zone

From the back cover:

Who’d have thought mulch could cause such a stink?

Low Country dog walker Andi Grace Scott is happy to score some free mulch from one of her brother’s landscaping jobs—until she discovers the dead body buried beneath the bark.

Worse, her brother’s landscaping tools were used to commit the murder. Once the police arrest her brother and seem happy to have “caught their man,” Andi Grace has no choice but to track down the real killer. She’ll risk everything to prove her brother’s innocence. Even if it means turning over every rock in town.

My thoughts:

DOG-GONE DEAD is the second book in this cozy mystery series. Andi Grace  is a sweet southern woman who loves dogs and mysteries. A host of characters who all knew Andi Grace since way back when–friends and  enemies alike.

There is a host of  red herrings in the story–any one of which could have done it. That made it super hard to figure out who-dun-it.

The characters were super likable and I downloaded book one to find out that story.

There is a sweet beginning romance and a weak faith message.
