A Hattie and Moose Cozy Mystery #8

Blurb:

The Nashville Thunder Prix promises speed, spectacle, and a rare weekend off for private investigator Hattie Leiper and Detective Bo Beckett.

What it delivers instead is a body, a wrecked car, and a killer who knows how to hide in plain sight.

When rising star Brad Cruise dies in a crash quickly ruled no accident, Hattie can't stay on the sidelines. Brad was a client of Tim, Gracie's boyfriend, and that's reason enough to get involved.

She trades her VIP pass for a pit pass and faces a suspect list as long as the racetrack itself: a vengeful ex-agent, a bitter rival, and a team owner with everything to lose.

With Moose, Mini Pearl, and Cecil along for the ride, Hattie has one lap left to catch a killer—before someone else crosses the finish line for the very last time.

My Review:

In Murder, Speed, and Sabotage, Hattie, Bo, Gracie, Tim, and their delightful furry companions—Moose, Mini Pearl, and Cecil—head to the racetrack for an adrenaline-fueled adventure. The stakes skyrocket when Tim's client, rising racing star Brad Cruise, violently spins out of control. Was it a tragic accident or a calculated murder attempt?

Hattie and Bo, aided by Moose the grumpy Chow Chow, Mini Pearl the Yorkie, and Cecil the British Shorthair, dive headfirst into the investigation. With a long list of vindictive suspects, Hattie and Bo must untangle the web of sabotage to find the truth.

This book is a fantastic addition to the Hattie and Moose Cozy Mystery series. Each installment completely stands alone as a charming, unique story with absolutely no cliffhangers.

There are so many suspects with motives to hurt Brad, which kept me guessing the entire time! The pets are incredibly sweet, especially when Moose does his best to comfort a sad Hattie. It is so heartwarming to see how the animals try to cheer up the humans.

The story is packed with amazing twists that kept me hooked and racing to the very end to see how it would all unfold.

I am so excited to see how Greta tops this one in her next book. If you love a great cozy mystery, you need to grab a copy of this book today!
