A Fatal Twist(Downward Dog Mystery #4) by Tracy Weber

A Fatal Twist (Downward Dog Mystery, #4) 


Yoga instructor Kate Davidson’s life takes a chaotic turn once she agrees to not only be the doula for her pregnant best friend, but also play foster mother to two puppies. The chaos only gets worse when Kate finds the dead body of a philandering fertility doctor and Rachel, one of her yoga students, fleeing the scene.

Kate is convinced her student is innocent, and she sets out to find the real killer before her testimony condemns Rachel to a life behind bars. But her hands are full with caring for three dogs, teaching yoga classes, and gaining an unexpected crime-solving partner. If she’s not careful, Kate’s next yoga pose may be a fatal one.

My Take:

You cannot go wrong when you read a book from Tracy Weber. This book does not disappoint. Kate is never afraid to add more to never ending list of things to do. This Yoga instructor is now training to be a Doula for a friend, saving puppies and solving crimes in her spare time. This is a fun filled ride to the very end .

Cremains of the Day(A Tallie Graver Mystery #1) by Misty Simon

Cremains of the Day (A Tallie Graver Mystery #1) 

There's no reverse on the hearse . . .

For Tallulah Graver, marrying wealthy Waldo Phillips seemed like the best way out of the family business, the Graver Funeral Home. But when her marriage falls apart and Tallie is left with next to nothing, she turns to cleaning houses to make ends meet. As humbling as it is to tidy the mansions of the snobby socialites she used to call friends, at least she doesn't have to be around dead bodies. Until . . .
She discovers one of her employers lying in a closet with a knife sticking out of her chest. This unpleasant shock seems to be part of a web of weird experiences: Tallie's friend Gina's shop is broken into, her ex is stun-gunned where it hurts the most, and now she's receiving flowers from the dead woman. Granted the deliveryman is handsome, but seriously, that's enough to cast a pall over anyone's day. Now Tallie needs to dig deep to clean up this mess--before she finds herself in a grave situation.

My Take:

What a great read. This is the first book in a new series and if this book is any indication there will be many more to come. Once I started reading, I just couldn't stop. The characters are great and the story is fantastic. Don't miss out on this one.
