The Dartmoor Murders is the fourth book in the fun Devon Mysteries series. Juno has inherited an antiques shop which is not yet turning over much profit. In exchange for goods and services she is allowing a few vendors to set up rent free as she has the space and she could use more custom. When outgoing and irritating Fizz comes along expressing her desire to pay rent on three spots for her silk scarf business, Juno can't afford to turn her down. But when a body unexpectedly shows up in a wardrobe Juno buys from cantankerous Fred Crick she is a wee bit alarmed. As an amateur sleuth she is no stranger to dead bodies so she takes action.

While entangled in the murder case which becomes murder caseS, Juno is bewildered by other crimes in her area and inveigles and questions. Her steadfast and loyal friends including Daniel back her. Bodies and secrets pile up and tensions increase. Clues are discovered along the way and she attempts to put her less than charitable thoughts toward Cruella aside.

Cozy mystery readers ought to read this and the others in the series, perfect on a lazy day.

My sincere thank you to Allison & Busby and NetGalley for the privilege of reading this engaging charmer.

When Juno Browne buys a wardrobe to stock in her fledgling antiques store, she doesn’t expect to find a dead body inside. And when the man she bought it from, rascally farmer Fred Crick, is found battered to death in his blazing cottage, the hunt for a double murderer is on. Despite the police struggling to connect the two deaths, this time Juno is resolved to ignore her impulse to investigate.
This is the 4th in a series involving Juno and this series just gets better. I like this character a lot and the plotting is believable and the dialog realistic which I always appreciate in a book. This kept me involved until the very end and I am eagerly awaiting book #5. Thank you NetGalley for the advanced readers copy for review.
