Scooby Doo gang back in action

You just have to love a book where the characters can each play a part in Scooby-doo mystery, they even have a frightened dog to play Scooby. This book was a lot of fun and definitely took the listener on a Scooby Doo type of mystery and I just loved it. Don't get me wrong it's not a child's cartoon and the mystery is a murder (be it a cosy mystery) it's more a reference to some of the personality or mannerisms of the great characters. Which are as you can tell a lot of fun and slightly quirky but I think that is what is going to have the reader or listener returning again and again to both the book and the series. Nora is a good main character and like the rest is very likeable and caring. The mystery was good with a few twist to keep you guessing. I worked out the killer and why just before Nora did. I can't wait for the next book and it is definitely on my to be read list.
Nora inherits money, a bookshop, a house and a greyhound from an uncle she never met. Leaving the past and the memories that haunt her far behind, she decided its time to get to know her uncle or at least why he left everything to her, a strange. It seems her uncle did more than rescue greyhounds and people in need, as the shop is empty of customers. Except the detective who is there to tell her, her uncle didn't die from a heart attack, he was poisoned. The detective thinks his ties to the mob is what got him killed but Nora isn't so sure when the Boss claims they were friends. Can getting to know her uncle through his friends and finding out where his money came from lead her to finding his killer?
I liked the narrator and thought she did a good job of bringing the characters to life.
