Can Fred figure out if one of the park rangers is the killer?
Winifred "Fred" Page
Fred Page is our sleuth, main character, and owner of Cozy Corgi bookshop and bakery. She is a fantastic person who is trying hard to make a living in Estes Park. Granted, it has been a year since she moved to the town, but Fred is still working. Fred is great at getting people to talk to her and figuring out things that only a kid of a police detective would know. I like a lot of things about Fred. The first one being that her bookstore is incredible and that I would love to work there. I love that she talks to Watson and some inanimate things. It's just apart of her working through what's on her mind. Fred and I would have been friends if she was real. Well, except for being one to find bodies a lot.
Watson is also adorable. I love his attitude sometimes. His love for baked goods is incredible to think about for such a small creature.
The Mystery
First things first, there is gunfire the night before Halloween, but they found the body of a sheep. The night of Halloween, Fred and Watson hear two guys in the shop trying to find some weed products there, but instead, they rob her. November first they find the body of the robber Fred saw in the shop. Now she has to figure out if one of the park rangers is the murderer.
It is proving to be a hard task for Winifred to figure out. I had a time figuring it out, and I didn't get it until the evidence was there to prove that the person I thought did it was wrong then it was making sense to me. This one was hard.
Five Stars
I am giving five stars to this beautiful book. It had me guessing what was going to happen next throughout the entire thing. I just was shocked about a lot of stuff that was happening. For the mystery is trying a bit, I am giving this book five stars and recommending it to any cozy mystery reader out there.
Don't forget to take a look at the recipe in the back. Katie's Garlic Infused Artisan Bread sounds so good.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy from the Great Escapes Book Tours. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
Thank you for dropping by! I hope you enjoyed this review of Wicked Wildlife by Mildred Abbott.
Anyways, until next time,
