Finlay Donovan may have skeletons in her closet . . . but at least there’s not a body in her backyard.

Finlay Donovan and her nanny/partner-in-crime, Vero, have not always gotten along with Finlay’s elderly neighbor, Mrs. Haggerty, the community busybody and president of the neighborhood watch. But when a dead body is discovered in her backyard, Mrs. Haggerty needs their help. At first a suspect, Mrs. Haggerty is cleared by the police, but her house remains an active crime scene. She has nowhere to go . . . except Finlay’s house, right across the street.

Finlay and Vero have no interest in getting involved in another murder case—or sacrificing either of their bedrooms. After all, they’ve dealt with enough murders over the last four months to last a lifetime and they both would much rather share their beds with someone else.

Review:

Compelling, mysterious, and witty!

In this fifth instalment in the Finlay Donovan series, Finlay Donovan Digs Her Own Grave, we head back to Virginia and into the lives of mystery writer Finlay Donovan and her sidekick/nanny Vero Ruiz as they find themselves once again entangled in a police investigation when her ex-husband is suddenly arrested for the murder of a man whose body is found buried in a neighbours backyard.

The writing is light and fun. The characters are anxious, creative, and spontaneous. And the plot is a captivating, amusing mix of outrageous mishaps, humorous hijinks, snappy dialogue, familial drama, intrigue, suspense, friendship, mayhem, amateur sleuthing, and tender moments.

Overall, Finlay Donovan Digs Her Own Grave is an addictive, charming, entertaining tale by Cosimano that is another fabulous addition to this much-loved, enjoyable, highly successful, hilarious series.
