Review: Vey Private Investigating
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 05 20, 2014
Dix Dodd has her hands full with this case, so much so that the forty-year old investigator is beginning to feel her age and is entertaining feelings she doesn’t know how to deal with.  It all begins with a flamboyant client who wants to spend five thousand dollars (with more to follow) just to have Dodd keep track of her husband, who the client is absolutely sure is cheating on her.The excitement comes, a few days afterwards, when the client is murdered--only it turns out that not the murdered woman, but an impostor had hired Dix.  And the police detective in charge of the case is convinced that there was no client at all, that Dix is in fact lying and is the actual perpetrator.  Add to that mix the fact that Dix is developing a crush on the handsome young man who is her assistant.There’s plenty of humor here, along with some tacit commentary about the September-May romance that is blooming.  Nicely done.
