Dial Meow For Murder by Bethany Blake

I read Dial Meow for Murder over the long weekend and I loved it. Bethany Blake has a strong second in series with Dial Meow for Murder. I really like that the main character Daphne is a free uncomplicated spirit with a knack for working with animals and a soft spot for solving the murders of the dead bodies she finds. She is purposeful in her investigations and clumsy, she is overly carrying and wears her heart on her sleeve. She is kind and curious to a fault and all of this makes for a great main character. I loved the mystery and how Daphney interpreted all the clues for not only the murder mystery but the mystery of what to do with her life as well.
This one is well written, thoughtful and a cozy great read. This one is out September 26th!

Even an experienced pet sitter like Daphne Templeton can be fooled by animal behavior: how can an adorably tiny fuzz ball named Tinkleston be capable of sudden flying leaps with cat claws bared? But human behavior remains even more mysterious, especially when Tinkleston’s owner is murdered on the night of a gala fundraiser for Fur-ever Friends Pet Rescue. Accompanied by her unflappable basset hound, Socrates, Daphne plans to take charge of Tinks the Terror and leave the crime-solving to handsome detective Jonathan Black. But while luring the prickly Persian out of hiding, she uncovers clues that might take suspicion off her own mother. Maeve Templeton already has a reputation as a killer—in real estate. How far would she go to bag Sylvan Creek’s most coveted property, the Flynt Mansion? To expose the truth, Daphne finds herself donning a deranged clown costume on an autumnal adventure that might just be crazy enough to work—if it doesn’t get her killed.
