It's always interesting to read a new author and/or series ... will I like it? In the case of The Dog Sitter Detective, by Antony Johnston, I did! Gwinny has spent the last ten years looking after her aging, ill father. She put her career on hold ... and as an actor, this is not a good thing to do. She has learned she is pretty much broke, too, as the money she thought her father had is gone. She is looking forward to the wedding of her good friend to be a welcome break ... however, it is anything but when a body is found, and it's the groom. Her friend is arrested for the murder. Then there are the two dogs, given as a wedding gift ... why? The police don't seem to be working very hard so Gwinny starts asking her own questions. And taking care of the dogs. Not a bad start, kept me up late. :-)
