The Dogwalkers’ Detective Agency by Michael Hogan was a delight, mostly because of all the adorable dogs! The Dogwalkers’ Detective Agency is a long cozy mystery full of quite short chapters which helps the book move at a nice pace. With different types of dogs and their busybody owners, this novel was a delight. If you’re looking for a debut full of mystery and murder, give this book a try!
