Whiskey on the Rocks: A Whiskey Mattimoe Mystery

Dealing with the first anniversary of her husband's death would be much easier for Whiskey Mattimoe if the newly-crowned Miss Blossom wasn't scheduled to die on the very same day. It seems everybody in Magnet Springs knew about the not-so-secret curse of the Miss Blossom pageant except for Whiskey—full-time real estate agent, part-time sleuth, long-suffering owner of Abra, Dealing with the first anniversary of her husband's death would be much easier for Whiskey Mattimoe if the newly-crowned Miss Blossom wasn't scheduled to die on the very same day.

It seems everybody in Magnet Springs knew about the not-so-secret curse of the Miss Blossom pageant except for Whiskey—full-time real estate agent, part-time sleuth, long-suffering owner of Abra, her willful and sometimes felonious Afghan hound, and reluctant guardian for the soon-be-deceased Miss Blossom. Any hope that Abra has reformed her purse-snatching ways is dashed when the dog disappears with the emerald-laden Miss Blossom tiara, a priceless--albeit horrendously ugly and gawdy--heirloom insured for more than Whiskey's net worth.

This book had us on a panic search for an ugly tiara, murdered beauty pageant winners, past pageant winners, ghosts, and Abra and her beau, Norman? As usual this witty, clever, and tightly written plot amused me and was true entertainment with an unexpected ending.

The storyline crossed over from Victorian days to the current decade with using all the characters we have begun to know from Ms. Wrights' earlier novels in the series.

Nina Wright's Whiskey series is great.

Whisky Cocktails VOL II

You know just what you're getting, a sassy heroine, some danger, some flirting and some laughs. I recommend the series highly. One person found this helpful. I loved all these books, the last one just leaves me hoping for one more, the characters are one of a kind.

Whiskey and Soda (A Whiskey Mattimoe Mystery #6) by Nina Wright

I loved the first two books of the 'Whiskey' series, but found this one disappointing. I believe stories are more interesting to keep reoccurring characters when the books are based on a series, even tho there were a few in this book. The cast in Whiskey with a Twist, lacked personality or likability. I would give the ending to the book 3 stars, but it took a long time to get there! I really love the Whiskey books for the humor and quirkiness.

I would be hard pressed to think of a betting setting for a humorous mystery than a dog show. This book brings some interesting developments in Whiskey's personal life. She is back together with her ex-husband and that relationship gives rise to all sorts of drama. The mystery is not super complex, but there are still a lot of red herrings and surprises. The best aspect of the books is, as always, how absolutely hilarious the dialogue is and Whiskey's perspective of the world around her. The only thing that started to irk me enough to give four stars instead of five is how incapable Whiskey acts at times.

I know Whiskey's character is that of an "unlikely" hero and inept pet owner, but by now I think it would be more realistic if Whiskey got her act together with Abra and in general. This was, in my opinion, the best book in the series so far! Of course, all of the wonderful folks from Magnet Springs are there to enjoy it's like revisiting old friends and that bad girl Afghan hound Abra is still running rampant.

However, I enjoyed watching Whiskey grow emotionally and take a new direction in her life I'll never tell!

Whiskey and Tonic

And, of course the suspense, laughter and twists and turns in the plot were all there to enjoy. Keep up the good work and I hope for many more "Whiskey" books in the future!! I'm a fan of this series, and yet this installment took me by surprise. It has all the suspense and laughter you'd expect from a Whiskey Mattimoe mystery with Abra in fine form as the hilarious Bad Example at an Afghan hound show. But it also takes Whiskey's personal life in a shocking new direction.
