Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Dog Club Mystery (4)
Dog-loving divorcée and amateur sleuth Lilly Echosby is not the only one who wants her new foster poodle. Some are willing to kill to have him ... Lilly's best pal Scarlett "Dixie" Jefferson has done it again! She's convinced eccentric poodle-loving billionaire Archibald Lowry to sponsor a grand fundraiser for the Eastern Tennessee Poodle Rescue. Tragically, it's too late to rescue Lowry, who is murdered at the event. His pet poodle is now orphaned, so Dixie begs Lilly to foster the adorable pup. Of course, she already has a poodle-her beloved Aggie, named after Agatha Christie. Fortunately, Aggie seems to like the new addition to the family, whom Lilly renames Rex, after her second favorite mystery author, Rex Stout. But she's barely welcomed Rex into her home when there's an attempted poodle-nabbing, foiled with Aggie's help. As desperate characters try to get their hands on the canine cutie, Lilly turns to Dixie's dog training class to help her sort through a litter of suspects. Ultimately, she may have to unleash Rex as bait to collar the killer... Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Lily Echosby’s best friend Dixie is heading up the Eastern Tennessee Poodle Rescue Association fundraiser and has asked Lily to help at the gala event at The Chattanooga Museum. The event’s Guest of Honor is recluse and millionaire Archibald Lowry. As the guests are arriving, Lily sees a man who appears to be a homeless person and she goes in search of Dixie, but it turns out to be Lowry. A short time later Lily hears a lady screaming and runs toward the scream. When Lily arrives she finds Lowry has been stabbed and is dead. Dixie asks Lily to take Lowry’s puppy, Indulf, while the police do their investigation. While the police investigate, Dixie and Lily, discuss tomorrow events. There was to be a silent auction and dog trials at Lowry’s estate. They decide that Lowry would want them to go on as planned. Before the police release everyone, an attempt is made to steal Indulf.
The next day Dixie’s dog club members have been assembled and are putting their dogs through various examples of dog training. The silent auction is doing well. But there have been a couple more attempts to steal Lowry’s dog, who Lily has renamed Rex. But then, there was also another murder, one of Lowry’s employees has met an early demise.
Lily begins to wonder if the attempts to steal Rex have anything to do with the deaths that have recently occurred. Lily, Dixie, and the members of Dixie’s dog club will put their heads together to help the police with their investigation.
The romance continues to blossom for Lily and Red, but maybe not so much for her daughter Stephanie. Stephanie and her boyfriend have come across a few bumps in the road and she has decided some time away might help. It’s difficult for Lily not to offer advice, but it’s nice to have Stephanie around to help find the murderer.
The book is well-written and plotted with an interesting cast of developed and believable characters. I particularly enjoyed reading about the interaction of pups as they frolic with each other and as they are put through their paces in the trials.
I am anxiously awaiting the next book in this great series. (
