Riches to rags. … Controlling to chaos. … But murder … seriously?
After her ex-husband leaves her high and dry, former socialite Doreen Montgomery's chance at a new life comes in the form of her grandmother, Nan's, dilapidated old house in picturesque Kelowna … and the added job of caring for the animals Nan couldn’t take into assisted living with her: Thaddeus, the loquacious African gray parrot with a ripe vocabulary, and his buddy, Goliath, a monster-size cat with an equally monstrous attitude.
It’s the new start Doreen and her beloved basset hound, Mugs, desperately need. But, just as things start to look up for Doreen, Goliath the cat and Mugs the dog find a human finger in Nan’s overrun garden.
And not just a finger. Once the police start digging, the rest of the body turns up and turns out to be connected to an old unsolved crime.
With her grandmother as the prime suspect, Doreen soon finds herself stumbling over clues and getting on Corporal Mack Moreau’s last nerve, as she does her best to prove her beloved Nan innocent of murder.

Arsenic in the Azaleas
When her grandmother moves into a nursing home, Doreen gratefully moves into her house. The recently divorced trophy wife finds an enormous cat and a chatty parrot awaiting her care. She also finds proof of murder buried in the garden. As she adjusts to her new life, she begins her own amateur investigation that reveals more secrets in her new home. Will her curiosity lead to answers or trouble?
The characters were amusing though the fact that local law enforcement let Doreen interfere so much was far fetched. Honestly, the epilogue seemed unnecessary and would serve better as an introduction to the next book since it restated information already made clear in this book.
