This story manages to keep the interest going with its fast pace as the story chugs along and there is something happening in each chapter that is of interest.The Hollywood references can be amusing and the main character and her dog are interesting with her quirky family and friends and the investigation part of the story keeps you interested.The only down side to the book for me was the poor use of the 'English' accent by the friend that used slang words from all over the map and some Aussie words that a Brit would never use.If you weren't from the UK you might not notice but for me this grated and became an annoyance the more I read the book giving it a 4 star instead of a 5.The Author needed to research English slang words better or just not use them.Otherwise this is a good story, gripping at times and light hearted at others a cop thriller and murder mystery with seedy undertones without being graphic.This would likely suit those looking for a crime drama, police thriller without the intensity of the gory details it hints at and insinuates a great deal enabling the reader to fill in the blanks and for those who prefer less gritty stories this is a good choice, I enjoy both and still found this kept my interest. Enjoy.
