The first book in a new cozy series (at least new for me), Dixie Hemmingway is an ex-deputy who lost her husband and daughter in an accident, and now has a pet-sitting business. Trouble starts when she finds a dead body at one of her clients' homes. While I found the twists and turns confusing at times, this is a good solid mystery. One victim's Jekyll-and-Hyde personality kept throwing me off but was still plausible, and the resolution was satisfying. Characters were pretty well rounded, even the animal ones. I would be interested to read the second book, but not sure yet if this is a keeper series for me.
