After almost a month in picturesque Kelowna, Doreen Montgomery still can’t keep her notoriety to a minimum or her nose out of other people’s business.

While the last thing Doreen wants is to have the media discover she’s involved in another cold case, she is already hooked on the details …

But even more is going on.News has gotten out that Nan’s old house is brimming over with valuable antiques, antiques Nan collected and left for Doreen, and the seedier elements of their lovely town are circling like vultures.

Doreen has many projects to juggle -- sorting through her Grandma Nan's house for antiques, flowers beds reclaimed in the backyard, and cooking lessons from her friend Mack. A message comes to her door, asking her help on a missing person from almost 3 decades ago. With the help of Nan and her friends, Goliath, Mugs and Thaddeus, Doreen digs into her next mystery. This book is just old fashion fun, a book for all ages. I laughed out loud in several spots and cheered as the pace picked up. No spoilers (just read, enjoy and laugh/cheer and laugh some more). I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Doreen aka the bone lady is back at it again. Her 3 trusty sidekicks, Thaddaeus, Goliath and of course Mugs is there to spur her on and protect her and she goes investigating a 29yr old mystery. Nan puts her two cents in and wants info for her betting. Mack our fearless Mounty is becoming a touch more forthright about letting interest show for Doreen and teaching her to cook :) Doreen finds out that most of the furniture she is not enamored with are antiques. Yeah, income to live on. What I absolutely love about this series is you never really know who did it, there twists and turns all the way through and we get to watch Doreen grow as in individual as she learns to become self efficient and sees how the world runs without chefs, maids, etc. Ready for E :) Thank you booksprout and Dale Mayer for this lighthearted by thought provoking new series.

Doreen and her 3 pet companions have managed to take on another cold case. She is juggling a growing relationship with Corporal Mack Moreau, learning to cook, trying to manage a house full of antiques left to her by her grandmother Nan and also her curiosity which leads her into solving cold cases. Speaking of Nan, she is a challenge too as she is living in senior housing and apparently amusing herself with betting schemes. All in all they are quite the characters and never cease to delight and amuse the reader. I do believe the pets could have a story of their own with their antics. Definitely a enjoyable read and I'm looking forward to the next book in this series.
