Death & the Viking's Daughter by Loretta Ross

4.0

---

Fully Scooby! Not partial or half but full. This murder mystery was amazing light and humorous with just the right amount of sadness. The two individual tales in the story come together with a fun, Full Scooby Doo twist. Having not read previous books in this series and I think Ms. Ross has done a wonderful job introducing a new reader to the main characters, their back stories, and how their relationship works without a lot of retelling. The author did a great job describing the scenery, whether it was the woods, the viking ship, or the portrait painting, the reader is transported there. Any reader who enjoys a cozy mystery with some romance and humor will definitely be entertained by this book.
