The Book Junkie Reads . . . Review of . . . KARMA'S A KILLER (Downward Dog Mystery, #3) . . . I had fun with the cozy mystery presented here, but I can't help but wonder if I was missing somethings about our little detective. Kate Davidson was a yoga instructor. For whom? I'll let you find that out. But there was more to her. I would have liked to made a real connection with her. This book did not do that connection any justice.
The mystery itself and the way things got solved was on the other hand entertaining. I was lured in by the cozy mystery sub text, but if I go from what I know of cozy mysteries this one missed the mark on a few of the key elements. Witt. Charm. Humor. And more. I was wanting to have the lead carry things to the level of cozy mystery connection. She was not the humor of the story. She was not even the charm. She was on the one hand surrounded by those that supported her character with the things she was missing.
Anne James was a good narrator for the cozy mystery genre. She had elements in her voice that carried the characters and the setting just right. The clarity and distinction of the various characters made for an easier listen. There was not trying to figure out who was saying what.
I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Audiobookworm Promotions on behalf of various authors, narrators, and publishers. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it.

& 1/2 stars
When Seattle yoga teacher Kate Davidson agrees to teach doga (yoga for dogs) at a fundraiser for a local animal rescue, she believes the only damage will be to her reputation. But a few downward-facing dogs are the least of Kate’s problems when an animal rights protest at the event leads to a suspicious fire and a drowning.
The police arrest a woman claiming to be Kate’s estranged mother and charge her with murder. To prove her innocence, Kate, boyfriend Michael, and German shepherd sidekick Bella dive deeply into the worlds of animal activism, organizational politics, and the dangerous obsessions that drive them. All while discovering that when it comes to murder, there’s no place like hOMe.
