Rest in Pieces

Shirley J.                    Adult Fiction                    Murder Mystery solved by a cat and a corgi

Rest in Pieces by Rita Mae Brown & Sneaky Pie Brown  384 pages

I love that this murder mystery series has a cat and a corgi, plus other animal friends of theirs that help their people solve murder mysteries.   In this story another cat, a possum, a snake and an eagle also do their part to catch the killer.   Being a big fan of animals, I enjoy how their stories come into play and frankly if it wasn't for them, the humans would take a lot longer to come up with clues if ever.   The pieces part of the story is various body parts that are found and must be identified and with luck the rest of the missing bodies put with them.   The story is a good one and the acts of the animals spectacular.   I would recommend this series to middle schoolers with a bent for murder, mayhem and mysteries on up.   Animal lovers especially will be pleased with the stories.
