Dolled Up to Die (Cate Kinkaid Files, #2)

by Lorena McCourtney

When Cate Kinkaid receives a frantic call about a triple homicide, she drives to the scene against her better judgment--aren't triple homicides more up the police department's alley?--only to find that the victims are not quite who she expects. Now she has a new rule to add to those she's learned in her short stint as an assistant private investigator: always find out if the victims actually have human DNA. Because these three do not. But who would shoot this nice lady's dolls? What possible reason could the shooter have? And then there's the startling discovery of another victim, who definitely does have human DNA . . . With tension that is matched only by humor, "Dolled Up to Die" is the exciting second book in Lorena McCourtney's The Cate Kinkaid Files. Mystery fans won't find a place to stop and take a breath in this fast-paced and intriguing tale.

This is the second Cate Kinkaid File, but stands on it’s own and could just as easily send you back to the original Dying to Read for more. I have to admit I’m loving these titles! Mystery was my original genre of choice and while I’m often more likely to be found reading a historical, a good contemporary might find it’s way on my shelves from time to time. Much like I enjoyed Peggy Darty in years past with her Christy Castleman series, I feel a very similar enjoyment to Lorena McCourtney’s Cate Kinkaid Files.

When I was younger I loved mysteries. I love to read them and watch them on various television shows or movies. My mother, my sisters, and I all watched Murder She Wrote together when I was really young and I can still remember the popcorn on the floor… or the different puppy chow chocolate and peanut better mix or cheese and sausage dips we made. Good memories. It’s the kind of mystery that I do not mind reading before I go to bed. Yes it does keep me interested and wondering, but it’s not the type of nightmares. I have really enjoyed Lorena’s writing and I do plan to look for the rest of the Cate Kindcaid Files!
