Series : Jazz Ramsey #1
Author: Kaylie Logan
Genre: mystery
Rating:3
First in a new series from national bestselling author Kylie Logan, The Scent of Murder is a riveting mystery following Jazz Ramsey as she trains cadaver dogs.
The way Jazz Ramsey figures it, life is pretty good. She owns her own home in one of Cleveland’s most diverse, artsy, and interesting neighborhoods. She has a job she likes as an administrative assistant at an all-girls school, and a volunteer interest she’s passionate about—Jazz is a cadaver dog handler.
Jazz is working with Luther, a cadaver dog in training. Luther is still learning cadaver work, so Jazz is putting him through his paces at an abandoned building that will soon be turned into pricey condos. When Luther signals a find, Jazz is stunned to see the body of a young woman who is dressed in black and wearing the kind of make-up and jewelry Jazz used to see on the Goth kids back in high school.
She’s even more shocked when she realizes that beneath the tattoos and the piercings and all that pale make up is a familiar face.
The lead detective on the case is an old lover, and the murdered woman is a former student. Jazz finds herself sucked into the case, obsessed with learning the truth.
My thoughts:
Would I recommend it ? Yes
Will I read more of this series? Yes ,in fact I have the second book to read
Will I read more by this author? Yes
So what made me pick this up and start the series first off the cover because of the dog and second because inloved the idea of what Jazz does which is a cavdor dog handler , for those who don't know what that is , their the ones that go in with their dogs and find dead body's.While the story was enjoyable and I get this is a first in a series I wish she had done more with what Jazz and the dogs do, and that you got to see more of the dog characters as well , because most of not all of the story line was about the murder victim which is great because you find out she had a lot of secrets that wasn't great , but it was also about Jazz and her ex boyfriend and their relationship. You also see the inter acting between Jazz and her family and friends. With that said I want to thank Netgalley for letting me read and review it .
