Death by Auction

 Death by Auction is the 3rd Abby McCree mystery by Alexis Morgan.  This book focuses on a fundraiser for the veterans group that Tripp is involved in and Abby has chaired the event.  The auction was a success until the emcee meets with an unexpected crisis.  This mystery then develops into a well formed series of suspects and hidden secrets.  The personal dynamics between the characters is well written and believable.  I enjoyed the back and forth between them and look forward to reading more of the development of their relationship as the series continues.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A very interesting cozy mystery. I really like reading about Abby and Tripp and their growing partnership. It's hard not to smile at the descriptions of Zeke the giant Mastiff mix. The mystery itself was filled with viable suspects that lead Abby and Tripp into many different settings to try and clear Tripp's ex from going to jail for murder. I enjoy reading this series and cannot wait to continue reading this series.
