Is your tuition paid up? College finals are killers-or maybe it's just the people who count the money. A retired Irish Cop and a fast-food loving Irish Wolfhound search for the campus murderer while dealing with a scooter-riding senior with dreams of trenchcoat adventures, a crazed exterminator looking for his ride, and a makeup artist whose mid-life crisis isn't any the less stressful because her clients never complain. A half-million dollars has vanished and a college comptroller is dead. Mackenzie Sullivan, recently retired DC cop and newly-minted private detective, really has no interest in the murder. Mac just needs to find the embezzled money for the university's insurance company. Finding the killer is a bonus that he's not sure he wants to earn. "A fast-paced mystery with a lively and indomitable heroine, a tough-guy hero, and a lovable dog." -JoAnna Carl, author of The Chocolate Bridal Bash and other Chocoholic Mysteries. "Evelyn David's quirky sense of humor sparkles on every page. Murder Off The Books is a clever, witty romp with plenty of twists and surprises." -Kathryn R. Wall, author, Bishop's Reach and the Bay Tanner Mysteries

Good book

I liked this book - not as much as the authors' Brianna Sullivan mysteries, but I liked it.
The secretary that gets hired by the PI [don't want to spoil it] is my favorite character. If she is highlighted in the next book, I'll like it even more!
My least favorite things were: taking the dog EVERYWHERE and the character of Rachel. She would seem benign and then overreact. I liked her sometimes and then other times just wanted her gone. I hold her responsible for when things get out of hand with the police later in the book. [I hope that was vague enough not to be a spoiler]. She irked me a lot as the book progressed.
Still, the main character was good, I enjoyed the story, and the secretary was great.

Couldn't put it down!

As summer approaches, I can't wait to hit the beach with the latest from Evelyn David! With quirky, appealing, and entertaining characters, I found myself drooling over Whiskey's adventures and rooting for the characters to figure out life, love and an intriguing mystery! Murder Off the Books has more than a few unexpected twists and I wound up laughing on nearly every page. That's what I've come to expect from the author of the Brianna Sullivan Mysteries SeriesI Try Not To Drive Past Cemeteries (The Brianna Sullivan Mysteries)and I can't wait to follow this lovable detective's next adventure!

Murder, mayhem, and a mischevious mutt!

What a great addition to my cozy collection! Full of quirky characters and just the right dash of danger, Evelyn David sets up some fabulous characters in Murder Off the Books. I can't wait to read the next one -- and I'm sure you'll agree, in terms of mystery-solving dogs, Whiskey beats the pants (er, collar) off of Scooby-Doo!
