What the Cluck? It’s Murder (Frankie Chandler Pet Psychic Mysteries #4)

What the Cluck? It's Murder
A broody hen. A dead body. The ultimate test of a relationship. Pet psychic Frankie Chandler finally (and reluctantly) agrees to meet Detective Martin Bower's family. All she has to do is impress the pack of sisters who raised him. Not difficult, right? The only thing at stake is her relationship with the man she loves. The weekend at his eldest sibling's farm surpasses her worst nightmares. His former guardians excel at finding her faults. Even the chickens have it in for her. Then her first moment alone with Bowers on a romantic stroll ends with the discovery of a murdered farmhand. Now the marshal is fixed on Bowers' sister Dymphna as the chief suspect. On a homestead overrun with animals, there must be a witness. The broody hen? The carrot-obsessed horses? The suspect's self-involved dog? As she wrangles information from animals both furry and feathered, the case against Dymphna worsens. Should Frankie's loyalty be to the truth? Or to Bowers' family? Join Frankie and Bowers on their most personal case yet.

“What the Cluck? It’s Murder,” another entertaining story from Jacqueline Vick (#4 in the Frankie Chandler Pet Psychic Mysteries series). This story brings us further along in the relationship between Frankie and Detective Martin Bowers. In another ‘page turning’ story, we’re shown more into Bowers’ life and that of his sisters who helped raise him. Frankie, of course, is nervous enough with a weekend intro/visitation, but when it turns into murder, it brings everyone and every animal on the farm into the fray.

As you can tell, by the fact that I’ve just finished book #4 and I’ll be off to book #5 soon, that I enjoy the series very much. The characters are interesting and real (if you believe one could be a psychic and communicate with animals). I enjoy the mystery and the heroine’s desire to do the right things, even though sometimes the rules do get bent a little.

I recommend this book, as well as the entire series.
