Here’s the blurb
It’s almost Christmas, and Gwinny Tuffel’s thoughts are on what she’ll buy for DCI Birch (retired) and whether she can adopt another furry friend. But sorting through her late father’s papers leads her into his mysterious past, pointing to an enigmatic liaison now living in a Somerset commune. Gwinny and Birch find themselves unexpectedly snowed in with a group of retired spies, along with an energetic Cocker Spaniel, and embroiled in a murder case. Will they uncover the culprit and escape in time for Christmas?
My Review
The Dog Sitter Detective’s Christmas Tail is the second book in the series I’ve read.
I find the writing to be so easy to read, and Gwinny is a fun character. (I read the book in 2 sittings).
This mystery takes a little while to come together, (and for a while, I was chuckling along at some of the revelations Gwinny was making with a bit of a feeling of deva vu) and then the solution seems to be undeniable. But is it?
Very much a locked-room mystery, thanks to being snowed in, Gwinny determines to found out the truth before the snow can thaw and the police can arrive.
A very enjoyable, quick read. Did I guess ‘who dun it?’ I did not!
