The first book in the Shady Hollow series, in which we are introduced to the village of Shady Hollow, a place where woodland creatures live together in harmony—until a curmudgeonly toad turns up dead and the local reporter has to solve the case. Reporter Vera Vixen is a relative newcomer to Shady Hollow. The fox has a nose for news, so when she catches wind that the death might be a murder, she resolves to get to the bottom of the case, no matter where it leads. As she stirs up still waters, the fox exposes more than one mystery, and discovers that additional lives are in jeopardy. Vera finds more to this town than she ever suspected. It seems someone in the Hollow will do anything to keep her from solving the murder, and soon it will take all of Vera’s cunning and quickness to crack the case. A VINTAGE CRIME/BLACK LIZARD ORIGINAL

One of the best cozy mysteries I've ever read. Juneau Blacks use of the creature's characteristics really enhance the reading experience.
I was so surprised at how much I liked these animals. It seemed like a wonderful woodland town. The solution had more layers than I expected. I appreciated that because it made the characters so much richer. This is was a wonderful cozy with a decidedly unique cast of characters!
2.75 - cute but overly simplistic. Ended up skimming the last fifty pages.
