A really great read! Although it took me ages to get through just because of waiting for the ebook to become available again through my library app.
How can you not love Felix, such a fantastic and unique character. And I really enjoyed the mystery, the writing and all the funny bits thrown in too.
I'd love to read Belinda's other books to see what they're like.

I enjoyed this book so much! Cleverly plotted, with frequent surprises that I won’t call “twists” because they were so much more clever than the word implies. Really interesting characters, some of whom I cared about far more than I thought I would in the beginning. And laugh out loud funny by moments, even when the book is at its bleakest. This was my first Belinda Bauer book, but it will not be my last.

Set in Bideford Devon with an older protagonist and a great supporting cast. I enjoyed the characters and the humour in this book. There were moments that were sad and absurd and funny all at once. I loved the setting, and the pets.
