Mystery.
HTML: Former detective Nic and well-heeled wag Nigel star in their own Hollywood whodunit Walking the red carpet at the Academy Awards with a bow-tied Bullmastiff draws Nic and Nigel Martini plenty of attention from the press. But thatâ??s nothing compared to the attention they receive at the A-list after party, when Hollywood royalty learn theyâ??ve discovered behind-the-scenes footage from an acclaimed film that left one of its stars dead. Returning home after the party, Nic and Nigel find their house in shambles and their employee DeDee Evans beaten within an inch of her life. And when the weapon used to pummel DeDee implicates a beloved actress, Nic and Nigel drink and banter their way into a modern-day version of a golden-age crime caper. Praise: "It's a gossip columnist's delight! . . . This is a lively romp, with snappy dialogue, likeable leads, and a goofball dog who stays in on the action."â??Booklist "A terrific mystery . . . The plot, as well as the conversations between the couple, and their relationship with their gigantic dog, are all a plus where this outstanding story is concerned."â??SusGeen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

The banter and conversation between Nic and Nigel is humourous and their relationship with their gigantic dog that accompanies them everywhere, even to the Oscars will delight animal lovers and add a touch of whimsy to the book.
I enjoyed how the author selected to share the backstory using the dialogue from the home moveis that were found. This also provided clues to the mystery of who the murderer(s) is/was. It is not a style I would read all the time, but it worked in this novel. I was kept guessing until near the end of the book to determine who done it.....
I recommend this book to cozy mystery lovers as well as those who like a lighter read.
Netgalley provided me with a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. ( )
