Murder Unjoyful- Anita Waller-  Mystery/crime (cozy)

Fifteen years ago a woman was kidnapped whilst shopping and forced to shoot

someone after being kept naked and without food or water for three days. She was

chosen for her shooting skills and also shot at the scene. She has now come to

Connection -the PI agency run by Kat, Mouse and Doris to try and get closure.

The man who shot her has been released on licence and has fled- she is sure that

he will try and finish what he started all those years ago. Doris pulls in some old

favours and gets rather more than information in a very good way. Meanwhile

the perpetrator is on the loose and causing havoc seemingly slipping under the

radar every time. I really love this series. Despite the subject matter(which

won’t put you off your dinner) this is a wonderful comfortable read. I’ve loved

Doris from the very beginning of the series. This will stand alone but why miss

out on the other 5* reads in the series?  A few smart twists and turns along the

way to keep the grey matter active which I loved. A cleverly crafted plot,

wonderful characters and a smile along the way. What's not to like?

--------------

Anita Waller was born in Sheffield, South Yorkshire in 1946. She married Dave in 1967 and 

they have three adult children.
With many books to her name, she feels she has finally realised her dream. She writes mainly psychological thrillers, but was commissioned in 2018 to write a cosy mystery series, the Kat and Mouse trilogy. By November 2020 this will have grown to five books, plus a spin-off standalone novel called Epitaph, featuring Doris, one of the characters from the series.

She is now almost seventy-five years of age, happily writing most days and would dearly love to plan a novel, but has accepted that isn't the way of her mind. Every novel starts with a sentence and she waits to see where that sentence will take her, and her characters.

In her life away from the computer in the corner of her kitchen, she is a Sheffield Wednesday supporter with blue blood in her veins!

Her genre is murder - necessary murder.
