Critic reviews

"Thinking and talking pets may not be to every taste, but Brown writes so compellingly of the sprightly residents of the Virginia Piedmont, both human and animal, that you have to be a real curmudgeon not to be won over. The author breathes believability into every aspect of this smart and sassy novel." (Publishers Weekly)

I love this series, which is obviously cozy. This book is not only a good mystery, but moves the characters foreward in their relationships with each other
