Lost Property (A Daisy Dunlop Mystery, #3) By J.L. Simpson

Daisy Dunlop wants to solve a case on her own, because working with Solomon Liffey is absolute murder. A humorous female sleuth and private investigator murder mystery novel.

Despite her best efforts heir hunter Daisy Dunlop is yet to trace anyone who is entitled to the assets left by the dearly departed. Bills are mounting, her husband is hinting that she should get a real job, and another heir hunter keeps stealing her cases. When she gets a call from a solicitor who wants to hire her to find the sister of a dead client success appears to be at hand. It’s just too bad the solicitor hired her on the recommendation of her ex-partner, Solomon.

Solomon’s not used to being dumped, so when his girlfriend calls time on their relationship and disappears he wants to know why. If she won’t talk to him she will talk to her best friend, Daisy. So, despite having sacked her as a partner a few months ago, he now needs to win her back. Putting a case her way, and making himself indispensable, is just the start.

Together they set out to give Daisy her first success as an heir hunter. However, it soon becomes apparent the solicitor’s client was not who he claimed to be, and every attempt to find his real identity leads to another dead body. When Daisy becomes the police’s main suspect in their murder case Solomon gives up the one thing he swore never to lose, his freedom. When Solomon disappears Daisy risks the only thing that truly matters, her husband Paul.

Good read

Daisy is such a fun character. She and Solomon make a great team. The plot was enjoyable and keep you guessing. This one I enjoyed, but didn't have much to say about it. It's the third book of the series, and picks up right after the previous volume. In this book, Daisy is supposed to find an heir. And of course, she's sort of a walking murder-magnet so bodies seem to drop like flies everywhere she turns... I always enjoy the flirty interactions between Daisy, Solomon, and Paul. As usual, the prose is good and clear; and the editing is good. (I did find ~4 typos.)
Daisy Dunlop and Solmon are no longer working together. So Daisy is trying to start her heir hunting business. She is not having much luck with this, and hubby, Paul is telling her that she needs a job that actually pays money. That just adds to the stress for Daisy. Solomon gets her a job that will pay her enough money to hopefully make her whole again. She is looking for Tomas Jenks, but there is nothing on him anywhere on the internet. While checking out the last know address of this person, Daisy literally trips over a body, only he isn't dead....yet. It's the man that has been stealing Daisy's jobs! Solomon tells Daisy he will help her with her job as he has no case at the present time. These two people get along like oil and water! As the story continues, there is 5 dead bodies, a secret government fixer man and a the still missing heirs! What have Daisy and Solomon gotten into now? Oh, and Daisy accidentally found Solomon's father....only he doesn't know it yet! This is a great funny read! Can't wait for the next one! I received a ARC of this book for an honest and unbiased review. I have read all of them so far, and can't wait for the next one!
