Lending a Paw by Laurie Cass
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
The secret to finding a good cozy mystery series is finding one where the hero/heroine does something you are deeply interested in and what could be better than a librarian who drives the bookmobile? Minnie Hamilton is a diminutive librarian who just so happens to have a cat with the knack for sniffing out crime. On their first outing with the brand new bookmobile Eddie the cat discovers the murdered body of their bookmobile benefactor, Stan Larabee. The lists of suspects is long , so long that even the librarians are under suspicion. Minnie with Eddie’s help, vows to find the killer before the wrong person is sent to jail.
This is the first in the series but like many cozies it can stand alone as well. Fun to read, full of possible suspects and has a satisfying conclusion. Plus our heroine is a librarian! Recommended to those who like cozy mysteries, libraries, bookmobiles and cats. Or if you just want something quick and fun to read.
