Summary

Baking. It can get a guy killed.

On the trail of a master criminal, a retired detective and his former police dog expect a quiet time in the Cumbrian village of Keswick. However, when Rex picks up a scent upon arriving at their B&B...the discovery of a body in a shallow grave draws them into a mystery someone does not want solved.

With help from a local amateur sleuth and her dog, our mystery-busting duo sets out to investigate two cases at the same time.

Along the way, they’ll identify a host of possible suspects and have to answer some big questions:

  • Who stood to gain from the victim’s death?
  • Was it revenge or greed that motivated the killer?
  • Just how many sausages can a German shepherd eat in one sitting?

As they battle to reveal the truth, it’s clear someone is working to cover it up, and if they don’t figure this out in time, someone might not live to see another day.

In their most deadly adventure yet, can Rex and Albert sniff out the clues? The answer will be shocking!

Rex is at it again!

Albert is in Cumberland to discover their wonderful sausages and explore his hunch on someone he has named the Gastrothief. Although these books are in a series, they are written in such a way that they can be stand alone and you won't feel lost at all. Even though Rex is totally on the case, he becomes so obsessed with sausages that he manages to get himself into quite a pickle! This one had me laughing way too hard!
Excellent narration by Charles Robert Fox

That warm and cosy feeling

Albert and Rex continue with their gastronomic adventures. This can be listened to stand alone but you’re best starting from book 1.

It’s more of the same gentle murder intrigue.

I did like that Rex now has got more of a voice than in the earlier books, that he meets another former police dog and his heroics isn’t he story a really touching.

The voice performance is very good and brings the story to life.

Only very minor gripe is that Keswick isn’t a village, but in all other respects is a lovely place to be in.

Great sausage saga!

Albert and Rex are doing a bit of investigating for another case but stumble on a new case while visiting the sausage factory. A roller-coaster of an adventure is in store for the duo.
This narrator totally sounds like he could be Albert. The story flows nicely. Really good caper.
