Great review! I was hoping this would be a humor book from the title, but you did say the protagonist is humorous, so it's a maybe for me. I don't know why I've never gotten into reading mysteries, maybe I should give them another try.

Thanks Kat Kennedy and jsphllkn2017! It has quite a bit of humour in it :) And the animal slant makes it stand out from the crowd!

zoo is a perfect backdrop for murder and mayhem.
Learned plenty about endangered species along the way and I really enjoyed this book, plenty of action.
Good job for the review

It's nice when you get to learn something new through storytelling.
Life without a good book is something MrsCatInTheHat cannot imagine.

Thanks CatInTheHat, I couldn't agree more, when you put it in a story it doesn't feel like learning at all. This one is full of interesting little facts!
