Who Killed Marilyn Monroe? Liz Evans 9780752809144 Books

I enjoy this series very much & wish that Liz Evans would continue writing it even if she self-publishes them as ebooks. The other books in the series have been revamped with new titles & covers. This is another mystery series I re-read from time to time. The main character is a wise-cracking female private investigator named Grace Smith. She moonlights as the Easter Bunny in one book. Every day is a bad hair day for Grace. The mysteries are well-crafted & well-written. They have a fairly fast pace. Easy to read. Frequently amusing & sometimes down right hilarious. You identify with Grace easily. Set in Seaton by the sea. Everything is described so well her books seem to come alive as you read. Definitely recommend this author & series. The books are all on Kindle.

Who Killed Marilyn Monroe? Liz Evans 9780752809144 Books Reviews

I'll admit, I saw this book in the bookstore several times and was put off by the title, Who Killed Marilyn Monroe, frankly who cares..Then the other day I was checking to see if the new Evanovich was in and actually picked the book up and read the jacket. This is when I discovered that the Marilyn in this book is actually a donkey,in my opinion any book with a male donkey called Marilyn Monroe, multiple murders and mayhem is worth a read.
This is the first book in the series featuring PI Grace Smith, Grace is tall, blonde and perpetually broke, she has as many problems and hangups as the rest of us and is very easy to identify with. The one-liners scattered through the text are brilliant, the dialogue is well written and fast paced with frequent oportunities for a laugh. I will definitely be buying the next three books to see what else Grace manages to get herself into.
Never buy a book without reading a page!!!! This book is NOT about Marilyn Monroe the movie star. It is about a MULE named Marilyn Monroe that was murdered in a mule train named after famous movie stars!!! So if I ever finish it, i will let you know. Right now I am reading the assassination of MM. It is text book style. Take notes and hope for a story-like chapter or two...
Read all of the books in the series, hope she continues. Laugh out loud at times., actually, lots of timed.
Very interesting characters - very real, very human - and the mystery was wonderfully intertwined. I'm off to read the next one!
A found another favorite author!! She's a British Izzy Spellman!! Great mystery with a strong, cool female lead who's a real detective. The location is another interesting "character"! I can't believe I missed her for so long. Having a nice binge read to catch up!!
Unfortunately, she's not well known in the United States, although she deserves to be.

You can't help making some comparisons between Kinsey Milhone and Grace Smith (Liz Evans's PI) -- both are basically loners who have a few close friends, both are tight-fisted, are careless about their clothes and personal appearance, and both live in the margins, without family ties to speak of. But Grace Smith is very much her own character -- she's funny, sharp in her comebacks, has an edge to her, and inhabits a very different world from a wealthy California coastal town. Grace lives in a seaside town in England -- a town that used to be a resort but now only gets weekend visitors. And Liz creates a world around Liz that seems real -- like you've been there and can see it all, see the people, see the greasy spoon restaurant she's always cadging meals at, see the lonely beach off-season.

This story is about a donkey -- Marilyn Monroe -- who is killed. The police don't want to waste time on this, so the donkey's owner hires Grace Smith to find out who killed Marilyn Monroe. Grace is no fool and suspects it may be tied to a killing of a human that happened about the same time in the same general area -- and so her investigation follows that line. She quickly discovers who was killed (the police don't have a name yet) and begins to investigate who that person was and what the motive was.

My only regret is that I have only one more book to read in the Liz Evans series. I hope she keeps writing them, and I hope these books become more readily available in the U.S. so that others can get to know Smithie and her sharp British wit.
This series is hilarious. It features Grace Smith who thinks she is a hotshot detective (tongue in cheek here), but she gets the worse cases at the detective agency where she works. In the first book called Barking she had to babysit a spoiled mutt who rose to stardom by taking the credit for work that Grace had done. In this book she is hired to find out who killed someone's pet donkey. This murder and a human murder seem to be connected so she investigates both. If you like the Janet Evanovich and Sue Grafton books, you will like series too. It takes place in England. I've read this series twice and still laugh out loud each time I read it.
