Summary

New to the historic town of Metamora, Indiana, Cameron Cripps-Hayman is looking to make friends with her neighbors. What she isn't looking for is one of their bodies floating in the canal.

When she and her estranged husband, the town sheriff, are both named suspects for the murder, Cameron takes solving the crime into her own hands, teaming up with her eccentric coworkers who dub themselves The Metamora Action Agency.

As if hunting for a murderer with two high school geniuses, the town drunk, and an elderly kleptomaniac isn't hard enough, Cameron adopts the five mangy guard dogs of her deceased neighbor. But maybe a stint at playing gatekeeper is just what she needs to come face-to-face with the killer and save another neighbor from being the next victim.

Doggy drama

I didn't enjoy this book as much as I was expecting to. The story was too slow for my liking and focused more on the characters personal lives and grudges than on the murder its self. While I did like the characters and found them quirky enough to be entertaining, I found myself wishing they would just get back to the investigation. especially as nobody seemed to have a motive for the murder and we didn't really learn a lot about the victim. The Metamora Action Agency was one bright spark though and I loved how the two different age groups and personalities worked together on any project or task they were set. Even though there was lots of dogs none of them stole the show for me, which is unusual as I am a big animal fan and they are usually my favourite characters. I know they were meant to be guard dogs but they all just seemed overly aggressive and I never connected with any of them.
Finding a dead body is never easy but when it turns out to be the dead body of your estranged husbands girlfriend it's even worse. Cameron becomes the number one suspect in the town. Even taking in the victims unruly dogs doesn't do her any favours and in fact causes even more problems. With the help of the The Metamora Action Agency, a group of people working off there community service hours, she sets out to clear her name. Can Cameron find the killer before she or worse her estranged husband is arrested?
I like the narrator. I have heard her read a number of books by different authors and she was the main reason why I looked at this book in the first place because she never fails to bring character to the characters in an entertaining way.
