Abingdon Press I Shall Not Want: Psalm 23 Mysteries Book Two - eBook

Charity work can be murder!

It's Thanksgiving and Joseph Tyler, one of the members of Cindy's church, has organized a new charity that provides homeless people with rescue dogs to love and care for. But one by one, the homeless recipients are being murdered and their dogs stolen. Could an overly competitive millionaire with his prize-winning pooches and a grudge be behind the crimes? Or could it be someone much closer to Joseph who has something sinister to hide? Cindy and Jeremiah must rush to find a killer before he strikes again.

This was such a good book!! I laughed out loud in several places and I love the interaction and the chemistry between Cindy and Jeremiah. Although they come from two completely different faiths, they learn how to work together. I think that's the best part of this series. I don't really re-read books as a rule, but I will be with this series.

Although this book is not as action packed as the other two books in the series, I still thoroughly enjoyed it. Someone is dog-napping both stray & pedigree dogs as well as killing some of their owners. As a charity tries to provide canine companions to the homeless and encourage others to adopt dogs as well, anyone with a new dog could be the next target for this dog-napping serial killer. The church secretary and the rabbi once again work together, along with the head of the charity, to uncover the culprit and the reasoning for these strange crimes.

This book was as good as the first, and we get to know the main characters a little better than we did in book one. Again the author had me stumped - I only began to have a hint at almost the very end who the killer was. Now I'm itching to read number three. Again, this is not for the faint-hearted, but a great adult mystery. Once again, the author's grammar could have used some improvement. Great book at an even greater price. Get it today!!

"I Shall Not Want" is a fun cozy mystery. This book is the second in the series, but you don't need to read the first book in order to understand this one. However, this book promptly revealed who the murderer was in the previous novel, so you'll want to read the first novel before this one if you're intending to read it.
There's an underlying humor to this mystery, and the characters were engaging and interesting. I figured out whodunit long before the characters did (due to understanding mystery forms, not because the characters overlooked obvious clues), but the writing was good enough to keep me reading and enjoying it.
Though the main characters were a church secretary, a rabbi, and an atheist police detective, there was very little religious content. Certainly, none of the characters tried to convert each other.
I was reading an advanced reader copy, so this may be changed in the final version. However, several times the rabbi referred to God as "Jehovah" in his casual conversations. First, that's not the Hebrew spelling of God's name. Second, he also referred to God as "Yahweh" once, near the end. Third, Jews--even those not highly devout--don't casually refer to God by His personal name. Also, when asked to pray before the Thanksgiving dinner was eaten, the rabbi gave a very Christian-style prayer rather than a Jewish one. Granted he's a cool character with a mysterious past, but I didn't find him very convincing as a devout Jewish believer let alone the leader of a synagogue.
There was no sex and minimal gore (mainly just references to pools of blood). There were a few uses of both explicit and "he cussed"-style bad language. Overall, I'd recommend this enjoyable novel, especially to those who love dogs and mysteries.
I received this Advanced Reader Copy of the book from the publisher for review purposes.

This is the second book I have read by this author and it really keeps you attention and keeps you guessing. The characters are well defined and the interaction is crisp. I would recommend this book to anyone who is into suspense and mysteries.
