Content Rating:  PG-13 (Lauren Carr’s books are murder mysteries, so there are murders involved. Occasionally, a murder will happen on stage. There is sexual content, but always behind closed doors. Some mild swearing (a hell or a damn few and far between). No F-bombs!


The plot is twisted. The characters are full of depth, with many hiding secrets. Mackade’s two dogs and Greyson’s cat are not only smart, but have attitude with a capital A.  I don’t want to spoil anything, so all I am going to say is the cat is the hero who deals with one personal threat.”  Marilyn R. Wilson, Author, Speaker, Book Reviewer, review of THE PRIME SUSPECT

“Lauren Carr is among my favorite mystery writers. She knows how to write a fun tale while keeping readers engaged. … – Amy Campbell, Locks Hooks and Books

“I am, bottom line, amazed at the giant step that places Carr comparable to significant authors whose name slips off our tongues like, for instance, Nora Roberts. Watch this author–she’s moving quickly to where her goals are headed…” – review by Glenda Bixler, Book Readers Heaven

Lauren Carr is a master storyteller who combines the humor of Janet Evanovich and the investigative skills of Patricia Cornwell. She is always at the top of my reading list.” – review by Sherry Fundin, Fundinmental, As Eye See It


Book Description:
Two murders with one common denominator. Both victims betrayed Bryce Greyson. How could she not be the prime suspect?

Four years after Bryce’s cheating husband is gunned down, her boyfriend-stealing former roommate’s remains are found buried under a statue at her alma mater.

Declared the prime suspect by both detectives and the media, Bryce has no choice but to hire someone to clear her name.

Enter Sam MacKade, private eye.

To solve two murders, the former police K-9 officer and his canine partners must sift through the clues and the lies to reveal the true prime suspect.

MY THOUGHTS ON THIS BOOK

In this start of a new series, Sam MacKade and Bryce Greyson will invade our minds along with their trusted K9. Full of twists and turns and staggering events that will keep your head turning, this is sure to be a true Lauren Carr classic that will have you wanting more of this fabulous tale.

I have always loved a good cozy mystery, so I was in love with Lauren Carr’s books from the very first one I read. Her characters are always ready and on the go to their next case. I am thrilled that The Prime Suspect is book one in a new series. I love this book so much. It’s one of those books that you read and re-read parts all throughout the book. I cant wait for the second book to hit the shelves! This is definitely a book I will read again.

Sam MacKade and Bryce Greyson are the bomb trying to solve this whodunit mystery! And they couldn’t do it without teaming up with the fun loving K-9 help. I love that Carr’s books uses canines to help with the difficult cases she writes. Her love for dogs shines through her writing and I love it.
