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
