Review: A fun cozy

The Wallpaper Chase is cozy mystery novel. It's pretty traditional as most cozies are yet it does have a bit of a modern touch; for example - identifying a person using Facebook, etc.A young woman with the help of an adorable dachshund Dulce, solves the crime that involves mysterious art theft and murder. The story starts in Ney York and then moves to Geneva, Switzerland, giving the novel the "Old World" charm.There's danger abound, the knife to the throat kind, as the heroin moves through her adventures.I found the dog's voice delightful. It's not like the dog actually talks, of course. Its expressions, actions and barks are translated by the perception of the main heroine into words. What can I say, I like dogs. It was a nice touch to make a dachshund one of the participating characters in a mystery novel.If you like cozies like I do, this one will prove to be a fun read.
