Mystery Cozy
Phyllis has retired from teaching school. Her new hobby
is
baking and on the side trying to solve murder cases.
Who would have thought by baking cookies for a Halloween
party for animals she would stumble onto her next murder
case. You see, the local vet Hank as been accused of
murdering his wife. Phyllis and her friend Sam feel
that
there is no way that an animal lover would kill his wife.
Phyllis and Sam are on the case. They are going to do
what
ever they can to try and get to the bottom of this. Does
Hank have the TRICK OR DEADLY TREAT?
This is the first book that I have read by Livia J
Washburn.
It was really good, the way Ms. Washburn writes gets you
right
into the book. And to top it off, all the recipes that
are
mentioned in the book, are included at the end. The
ones
that I really liked are the ones that are simple dog
treats.
TRICK OR DEADLY TREAT is a fast read. This is
the kind of book that I enjoy.
From start to finish, I was engrossed in the book and
finished it in one day.
SUMMARY
It’s Halloween in Weatherford, Texas—which means Phyllis
Newsom is baking up a storm of yummy seasonal
treats...but
she’s about to get even busier unmasking a killer. While Phyllis and her friend Carolyn are preparing for a
baking contest, her housemate Sam adopts Buck, an
adorable
Dalmatian who was hit by a car. To thank local
veterinarian
Hank Baxter for helping the dog, Phyllis and Carolyn bake
a
batch of doggie treats for his other four-legged
patients. But when they arrive at the clinic, the vet is in the
process of being arrested—for the murder of his wife!
Convinced that the police are barking up the wrong tree
and
that someone’s been burying evidence, Sam begs Phyllis to
help find the real killer. Joined by Buck, the friends engage in a dogged pursuit of
the murderer, who will stop at nothing to muzzle
them…permanently. Includes Recipes
