The Review
This was such a fun, thrilling, and engaging story. The author did a fantastic job crafting a collection of short stories that felt like a vignette of different cases from the case files of the PI. The story follows Dash, a private investigator, from the earliest days of her fascination with criminal investigations at the age of twelve to her storied career and beyond. The variety of the cases that the author brings to each story and the entertaining, fun nature of the setting itself allows the reader to get lost in these cases.
The relatability of the protagonist and the fast pacing of the stories made for a smooth and memorable read. Dash's stubbornness as she rushes to find the truth and the interesting dialogue between herself and the people in her sphere (police investigators and criminals alike) made her such a powerful protagonist to root for.
The Verdict
Fast-paced, entertaining, and memorable, author Diane Bator’s “Dash Allman, PI Volume 1” is a must-read cozy mystery. The quirky and fun vibes that the author layers into each story within this volume will stay with readers and leave them wanting more from this brand-new series.

I enjoyed entering Dash's world : An engaging, quirky and offbeat PI that can't help get in trouble but still solves the mystery! She's left me craving breakfast hotdogs and a beach side cottage :)
A volume filled with funny and very satisfying mysteries!
