Not just a star detective but also a star book

I enjoyed this book, in fact I have loved the while series so far and can't wait for the next book. The characters are what makes it such a great series, as they are all love able but I really I loved the way Maizie draws on her acting experience to get out of difficult situations. It is such an unusual job for the main character, coming from an acting background, that the series stands out as a must listen too series and also because it's a lot of fun. The mystery was good, with a high body count which added humour to the plot, just how many bodies can one person find? And with a number of suspects the story kept you guessing until the end. The family life also spiced up the plot, especially Maizie mothers interfering in her life. Looking forward to the next case.
Maizie wants to get out of the office and away from filing to learn how to become a private detective but when she lands her first client she gets more than she bargains for. She is hired to shadow an old acting friend and keep her out of trouble. When she discovers her dead body by peeking in her window before she even starts work Maizie does the right thing and calls her boss and the police but is at a loss to explain where the body has gone and why the starlet is waiting in the dinning room for her. What did Maizie really see? And just what was going on in the bedroom with all the cameras? Maizie feels like she has let her boss down in front of his policeman friend and sets out to find out the answers. The problem is every time she thinks she know what is going on she finds a body, its just not the missing one. Is life really this complicated? As a teenage detective Maizie usually solved each of her cases in a single episode. Or is it just because her mother wants her to come back to the acting life and keeps interfering? Can she solve the deaths and keep the starlet out of trouble?
I really like the narrator. She puts a lot of emotion into the telling that the story really comes to life with each word she speaks.
