Bite The Dust + Giveaway

Random Retro Read

One steamy South Carolina morning, Low Country dog walker Andi Grace Scott discovers a client’s dead body. Police quickly decide she’s the prime suspect. Horrified, she knows she’ll have to turn detective if she’s going to convince them they’re barking up the wrong tree.

Proving her innocence could be a tall order. The local police never solved the hit-and-run that killed her parents; Andi Grace isn’t sure they’ll solve this crime either…not when they have a convenient suspect—one caught with the possible murder weapon in her hand. She’ll have to follow every clue and call in every favor, even if that puts her in danger.

If you love strong heroines, coastal small-town life, and dogs, you’ll love Bite the Dust.

My Review:

Published in 2020

Eeeepppp! How did I not know about this series? It’s both a cozy mystery and Christian Fiction! And there’s even a romance! That’s my reading dream, right there. Plus the whole series just became available on audible so guess what I’ll be binge listening to?

Absolutely love the way Layton sets the stage for this series. The cozy part of this cozy mystery is sweet perfection. Vivid descriptions of the SC Low Country made me feel like I was there and Andi Grace’s dog walking profession is my dream job! I appreciate the depth in character back stories — especially Andi Grace — and her personal mystery is just as compelling as the murder mystery.

Fabulous meet cute with an enemies to more vibe and an intriguing list of suspects kept the plot moving and me riveted. Plus, there’s light touches of faith interspersed throughout. So excited to dive into book #2 of the ‘Low Country Dog Walker Mystery’ series soon!

  2. Good morning, Kav. I’m picturing you getting your garden ready to plant. There’s nothing better than homegrown tomatoes! I love a good cozy mystery. Thanks for offering this one. I don’t believe I’ve read anything by this author. Have a good day! Blessings…

  4. What kind of invasive perennials? Maybe that is what I need in a narrow little bed under the deep overhang, which is a definitely a challenge. This sounds like a fun series, particularly the dog angle! Thanks!

    1. It seems like all the plants in my garden are plotting against me. I have this weed thingy that is cropping up everywhere and I have to dig waaaay down to tuber type roots that don’t want to leave the earth. 🙂 And ivy. Oy, the ivy — such a villainous plant. And roaming bee balm. Like it’s suddenly decided the other side of the garden path is the better place to be! And I have a stephanandra shrub that’s vying for world dominance. Bwahaha! It’s funny, I have years where spring is just a quick tidy-up and we’re good to go and other ones like this year. And I volunteered to adopt two garden beds at church! Lucky I have books to distract me when I’m garden weary in the evening. I’m listening to the second book in this series now. Just as great a read as this one. So jazzed to ‘discover’ Jackie Layton! Good luck, CC!
