This was a great installment in the series! This is the third book in the Cozy Corgi Mystery series but it could easily be read as a stand-alone. Readers of the series will enjoy catching up with all of the great characters in this small town. I have been listening to the series in order and had a pretty good idea what I could expect when I started this book and it completely delivered. I ended up listening to almost the entire book in a single day just because I was having such a good time with it.
Fred and Katie are finally getting their bookshop/bakery open. The grand opening is largely a success, although there are a few uncomfortable moments. When the town’s bird lover’s group comes into the store a chain of events begins that have a great impact on a lot of people. Fred and Katie are there when one of the members of the group is murdered. Of course, Fred feels like she needs to figure out what really happened.
The mystery in this book kept me guessing. I thought that there were a few more surprises in this book as compared to the previous books in the series. I felt like I was right there with Fred trying to figure out who was responsible. I loved the fact that this book was able to completely change my opinion of a character or two over the course of the story.
Angie Hickman does such a good job with this series. I think that the voices she uses for all of the characters in town are very well done and reflect each character’s personality. She reads the story at the perfect pace and includes the right amount of emotion in her reading. I think that the narration of the story increased my overall enjoyment of the story.
I would recommend this book to others. I am having a great time with Fred, Watson, and their friend Katie as they try to solve all of the murders that seem to be happening around them. I cannot wait to read more of this fun series!
I received a review copy of this audiobook from the author/narrator via Audiobook Boom and have voluntarily left this review.
