Zack, Jillian, Sherlock and Watson find themselves spirited off to London to visit the Queen and try to find Jillian's missing brother who is working with MI-6 to locate missing artifacts. Lots of surprises, and not all of them desirable, but all are extremely interesting!
How can you NOT love the books in this series?! Especially when they are interpreted by popular voice artist Bob Johnson?

The stories do NOT have to be read in any kind of order as the author catches you up on the salient points with each book.… (mere)

Zack, Jillian, Sherlock and Watson, with their good friends Tori and Vance are off to New Orleans to promote Zack's new book based in Ireland.

Along with the sleuthing they get caught up in police rivalry and some bets are placed, which brings in the fun aspect!

Cases of cranberries stolen from grocery stores! No fresh or frozen cranberries available for Thanksgiving!
If you've never met these two fun and furry crime solvers (Mr Sherlock and Ms Watson) and their widowed humans, you're missing a lot of fun! All of the characters certainly are, and the sleuthing is well done. This time winery owner Zack and his friend, local police detective Vance, take the Corgis and go to several crime scenes where all those cranberries have gone missing. Zack's fiancee Jillian, owner of The Cookbook Nook, is planning Thanksgiving dinner, Christmas decorations, and the wedding, while keeping a hand in the investigation. And those Corgis just keep leading their humans by the nose til they get it right!
Loved it! Easily a stand alone, but why?.
Bob Johnson aces the narration with just the right touch that highlights the humor by downplaying the guffaws.

The publisher's blurb is a good hook and only misses telling about the nasty person who feels entitled to the winery and performs one too many dirty tricks. All of the characters certainly are, and the sleuthing is well done. Loved it! Easily a stand alone, but why?
