2.6 stars-Quick short cozy mystery with one frustrated amateur sleuth. It had the cute English town, the cute animals, the gossipy town folks and murder. It also has two retired want to be sleuths and a forgiving police department.
Agatha is a early retired woman who solves mysteries while longing for her confirmed bachelor neighbor. The new veterinarian in town dies and Agatha jumps into it and drags her neighbor into it. She hopes spending time with him will win him over. They bumble along, asking questions getting some answers. More death happens, secrets are revealed and it ends with a solved mystery.
Why it didn't work for me-
The romantic part ? He runs whenever he see's her giving him the googly eye, sometimes doesn't answer the door, or the phone when he thinks she's interested. So guess what happens. She gives him the googly eye he runs, he likes another, she avoids him he comes back. On it goes. This part of the book just got on my nerves. She was slightly aggressive in a subdued way he way IMHO rude, hurtful and cowardly. I expect this from teenagers not two adults in their 50's.
The light and fun parts- there where a few. She is an accident waiting to happen. She has a few mishaps that are snicker worthy. The rest of the cast was meh.

I just didn't enjoy this series or the characters to move along in the series.
