Dog Dish of Doom: An Agent to the Paws Mystery

Kay Powell is agent with non-human clients and has found a potential new star in Bruno. When director Les McMaster shows interest in Bruno for the part of Sandy in Annie, her big break may finally be here. But Bruno’s annoying owners, Trent and Louise, may cost them the role when Les refuses to have them around. After Trent is murdered, Kay has no intention of getting involved and plans to only focus on her client, but threatening messages from someone desperately wanting Bruno puts her in the middle of the mystery.

E.J. Copperman’s series debut is charming and delightful, with a unique premise and lots of heart. Kay is an agent for animal talent, choosing to break away from her family’s showbiz plans and pursue ways to help animals. She’s a reluctant sleuth who doesn’t get involved from curiosity; instead she is dragged into it to protect Bruno and at her parents’ insistence that she solve it. Copperman puts a fresh spin on the cozy mystery, centering on the world of animals in show business. Dog Dish of Doom has family at its heart, providing a lot of fun and humor brought on by her dramatic parents. A must-read for any cozy-mystery lover!
