Minerva Biggs accepts a job as a personal assistant in Bryd Hollow, North Carolina, bringing along her very large dog, Plantagenet, assured that he's welcome. But when she's injured by her employer the first day, and her dog is also a target, she at first rethinks, then decides she has nowhere else to go, so lets it slide.

Not long after, her new employer is found dead, and she finds her own job in jeopardy. Convinced it was not an accident, and might actually be related to the death of his show more great-grandfather over a century before in the same spot, she sets out to find a killer. Unfortunately, in doing so she might also find herself a casualty...

When I saw this book I really liked the plot line, so thought I would give it a try. It started out well, but unfortunately, soon became boring to me. It just could not hold my attention. I would like to know:

This is a new book, so you can read it here: https://joannesbooks.blogspot.com/2022/06/murder-repeats-itself-minerva-biggs.ht...

At that point, the book lost my interest completely, and I really didn't care what happened or who was the murderer. It just became another cozy about a woman who is penniless, homeless, and doesn't know what to do with her life.

I skimmed to the end just to see what happens, and while it was well written (hence the three stars), I didn't find anything here that would make me read the next in the series. Sorry. show less

History, dogs, murder, situational and verbal humor! What more could I ask for?!
