About this listen
Desperate to stop her PI business from going belly-up, Verity Hawkes doesn’t hesitate to dive into the next case she finds: a body in a septic tank. But just when she thinks her investigation couldn’t get any more peculiar, she’s shocked to learn the accused perp is the town’s beloved billy goat.
Verity must juggle her meddling aunt, a surly former soldier, and a tuxedo-wearing cat to sanitize this baffling homicide. But when the investigation takes a sinister turn, she suspects darker forces are at work. Doubt on a Limb is the riotous eighth book in The Leafy Hollow Mysteries series.

Rickie Blair & Petrea Burchard just get better
Another dead body. Did the goat really do it? Verity gets her investigator hat on once again to look into the mystery and is led down an unexpected path where she begins to doubt her own instincts.
Petrea Burchard's narration is adorable. Her ability to vocally convey different characters in such a way that each is instantly recognisable by the listener is quite exceptional. I could listen to her all day. I honestly think she could read me a snooze-paper and I'd be enthralled!
Message to Author: Please hurry up with book 9. I can't wait to see what happens regarding Bermuda!

This series just gets better and better
I love this book, in fact the whole series is just brilliant and one I can listen to again and again, especially when I want a good laugh. This is book eight and all though the books are standalone mysteries, I think it works even better if you just sit back and enjoy the whole series. You also get to know the characters so well by doing this, as the mysteries take place in a small village and a lot of characters are familiar favourites that appear regularly. The characters are why this series works so well. They are likeable, funny and good at getting in to trouble or humours situations, where else are you going to find a goat being accused of murder? The author continues to come up with new and original story ideas and then baffles you with plot twists to keep you guessing and listening. A must read or listen series in my opinion and one I have recommended my mum give a go. Although the author has left it so you will have to get the next book, it's not a cliff hanger as such but is set up ready for the next story.
Verity is worried when a friend phones asking for her help, with a case that is a matter of life or death. Worried for her friends elderly mother, Verity rushes around to find things are not what she expected. The police and a crime scene van are parked in the neighbours garden and a tribe of goats running amuck in the garden. It seems the septic cleaner was found dead at the bottom of the tank. Was he pushed? The police think so and take away one of the goats. Verity 's friend wants to hire her to clear the goats name before he is arrested for murder of worse put down. The neighbour is the top suspect and with Verity 's own aunt having her own grudge to settle against the man, she jumps at the chance to help find the proof needed. They find more than they were bargaining for and the case gets more complicated. Can Verity figure out what is going on? And help her client?with nothing as it seems, should she stick to gardening because flowers don't lie.
I like the narrator. She has the right sounding voice for Verity and her friends, making it easy to picture the characters as the story unfolds.
