The Best Corpse for the Job by Charlie Cochrane
4.0
Well, this is my kind of book! A great mystery, with characters that behave like adults and even one very smart dog :P
The mystery was very well done, with the clues right there, and yet, difficult to solve until the very end because you only know as much as the investigators knew at that time.
The romance between Adam Matthews and Inspector Robin Bright is really slow-paced which fits perfectly with the circumstances. Hello! Police Inspector and possible suspect! Of course they can't get involved during the investigation!
The cast of secondary characters is quirky and well-chosen; I particularly liked Robin's Seargent :P
And it is so British! A small British village, a vicar, a bobby, and a village school: the ingredients of every lovely British mystery *laughs*
A truly enjoyable story and I'm looking forward to the rest of the series.
David Maxwell does a really good job with the narration.
