The Case of the Deadly Dog Show by Catherine Coles

A prequel novella in the Lady Matilda Investigates Series.

Lady Matilda, who is mourning the unfortunate death of her husband, is convinced to host the village of Little Biddington’s annual dog show, bringing her companion Hetty and late husband’s basset hound, Wellington, with her. But when the very unpopular Adelaide Forsythe is found murdered in the middle of the dog show, Lady Matilda is encouraged to try her hand at sleuthing to solve the mystery of Adelaide’s death.

A fun, cosy historical mystery set in the 1920s featuring a plucky female amateur sleuth and her faithful and very forthright companion. The Case of the Deadly Dog Show is a light-hearted, fun and witty novella with interesting characters and an amateur sleuth who is trying to establish a new life for herself after becoming a widow. A great read for cosy historical fiction fans who love small-town British cosy crime.
