Mystery Woman Sleuth | Mystery Cozy

Izzy owes her own pet boutique. Izzy is busy planning two weddings, one for humans, one for dogs. When right in the middle of the wedding, Daniel who rents from Izzy falls down the steps, shot to death.

Everyone is shocked and the wedding has been postponed. Upon checking further, Izzy's Aunt Dolly is at the top of the stairs, holding the smoking gun.Izzy knows that her aunt could not have murder Daniel. So let the investigation begins.

Izzy has several suspects in mind. Jack the lead investigator tells Lizzy to stay out of this, but of course Izzy is not going to listen.

Annie Knox writes a great murder mystery. I have read several of her books and one is better than the next. Annie combines something that whether you are a pet lover or a mystery lover, you will love GROOMED FOR MURDER.

Annie Knox adds humor to the story line along with at the end one of my favorites, recipes. All the story lines bring all the characters from one book into another. I really like this when a writer brings everyone together in her books.

Waiting for the next one in the Pet Boutique Mystery series.

SUMMARY

Izzy McHale wants her new Trendy Tails Pet Boutique in Merryville, Minnesota, to be the height of canine couture and feline fashions. But in a week of wedding bells, someone is about to hold their peace. Forever. Love is in the air, and Izzy is hard at work coordinating two special weddings at Trendy Tails. First, Izzy’s friend and mentor, Ingrid, will be tying the knot with her old flame. And a week later, Izzy will host “pupptials” for two lovable dogs. But even with the hullabaloo, the Trendy Tails crew is intrigued by Daniel, an enigmatic writer boarding above the shop who’s caught the attention of Izzy’s zany aunt Dolly, who gossips like most people breathe. Unfortunately, it’s Daniel who stops breathing when he drops dead at the altar on Ingrid’s wedding day. Then Dolly is found at the scene with the murder weapon, and it’s up to Izzy, her Trendy Tails pals, and her scrappy pets, Packer and Jinx, to find a killer before the two affianced doggies bark down the aisle.
