Summary

Marriage? It can be absolute murder

Superstar celebrity wedding planner, Felicity Philips has an event to run on a private island this weekend. With a stunning landscape as their backdrop and an architectural masterpiece for their venue, it's the perfect setting...for a murder.

After the nightmare of last weekend...oh, and the one before that, Felicity was hoping for things to run smoothly. However, an unpredicted storm cuts them off from the mainland before all the guests and staff can arrive.

That’s a big enough problem for a person trying to impress a prince. But when a guest is found hanging from the rafters, it becomes clear there is a killer in their midst.

Can Felicity employ Buster the bulldog and Amber the cat to help her again?

Aided by her loyal assistant, AKA her ninja niece, Mindy, the team of four have no choice but to solve their way out of this one.

Fantastic

A great mystery. The dog and cat talking to Felicity is funny. Stuck at the wedding venue during a storm. Felicity decides to solve the murder of one of the guests. With Mindy her ninja niece and her trust dog and cat they set out to discover the culprit but all is not as it seems and soon the bodies pile up. A great story.

Unsuccessful wedding but brilliant story

Another great book by Steve Higgs. Felicity keeps getting it wrong but the pace never lets up until she gets the correct person. Her pets 'help' along the way. So many different voices for the narrator to remember and they are so good you know who she is portraying immediately.

Don't hang around just get the book

I enjoyed this book. I love the way the cat and dog get involved in the investigation, I would say help but I am not sure it is entirely helpful, it's certainly amusing though. There is also the fun added element that they can talk to Felicity. There are a lot of characters which results in a lot of suspects, unless they get killed off of course. There is high body count in this book but it is a cosy mystery, so it's not graphic and they all play a part in the cleverly twisting mystery. A number of clues are dropped for if you are clever enough to pick up on them, I did guess the killer but definitely missed some of the clues. It's a book I would listen to again and with the ending set up nicely for the next book I will be listening to book three in this fun quirk mystery series as well.
Felicity is a wedding planner for the rich and famous and planning a wedding on a private island should stand her in good stead for being asked to plan the royal wedding, especially if things go off without a hitch. Things don't go to plan when the day before the wedding a storm hits the island, keeping everybody trapped. Then the photographers body is found in the bridal suite and another one in a cupboard. It quickly becomes apparent that they are all trapped with a kill, is the killer finished of is there more bodies to come? With the police stuck on the main land and unable to arrive until the storm blows over its up to Felicity, her dog who thinks he is a super hero, her cat that won't do anything unless she gets something in return and her ninja niece to work out who the mystery body in the cupboard is, unmask a killer and make sure the two grooms are ready to say there "I do's".
I liked the narrator. She really makes the story enjoyable by using a number of different voices for the characters, I especially liked the dogs when he was in hero mode.
