Summary
Verity Hawkes misses her recluse lifestyle, but she’s finally starting to settle in as Leafy Hollow’s resident landscaper. At least until a village-wide cupcake battle helps turn one new visitor from a skeptic to a corpse in record time. When her friend’s crush shockingly confesses to the crime, Verity is once again asked to investigate....
Potential clues come in as fast as the suspects: A documentary film director, a wacky artist, and a feral-cat enthusiast, to name a few. It turns out everyone in town has skeletons in their closet - even her new friends. If Verity doesn’t find out the truth soon, then the next local legend buried in the ground...could be her.
Digging Up Trouble is the charming second installment in a series of witty cozy mysteries. If you like puzzling whodunits, eccentric characters, and countless laugh-out-loud moments, then you’ll love Rickie Blair’s Leafy Hollow series.

Dig up a cozy chair sit back and enjoy
I loved this book and listened to it all in one day (with doors locked so I didn't get interrupted). This is such a fun series I am recommending it to my mum. What I love is the characters and the antics that they get up to, very funny. The mystery was good and even though I had worked out who the killer was it was still highly entertaining to be proved right. The story has the right amount of humour, mystery, high Tec gadgets and even a love interest to keep you hooked. I would recommend you start with book one because the stories do have an ending but they also have the mystery of her missing aunt that you learn a little bit more about in each book. Trust me you will In enjoy it, I certainly did and am eagerly waiting the rest of the series being released on audible.
When a professor claims to have proof that debunks the history surrounding a local legend of Leafy hollow, tempers in the village run high. But high enough to kill him? It seems so because his dead body is found the very next day that he gave all the villagers a reason to hate him. Verity finds with everybody under suspicion many of the villagers turn to her for help in clearing there name because she solved the last murder to take place in the village. Was it the film director who got the sack? The artist that knows him better than anyone else? The historical society that would gain money with his death? When the police seem to focus there attention on someone everybody is shocked and Verity and her sidekicks jump straight into the case to prove them wrong.
I liked the narrator, she uses a wide range of voices for the characters and even does a lisp for one of them adding to the fun of an entertaining story.

Leafy Hollow Mystery
I have to admit to disliking book one. I found it a bit depressing and unbelievable, especially the reason why she wanted to solve the mystery.
I did not realise this was book two of the book I did not like. As I was listening I realised that I knew some of the characters and once I looked it up I realised why.
I am glad to say that I loved this one a lot more, even if I figured out who did it early on. I loved the drama and humour.
Would highly recommend this book to those who love cozy mysteries with humour.
Can't wait for book three!

Another enjoyable book from Rickie Blair
This is the second in the Leafy Hollow Mysteries series, and the Author succeeds once again in drawing the reader into an intriguing mystery that unfolds at a good pace. I'm definitely invested enough in Verity's antics to want to move on quickly to the next book. I only wish there were more.
It makes such a nice change to have a book that has as many light-hearted and funny moments as it does moments of dread, shock, and realisation. If you've read the first book you will, of course, feel moved to read this book, and I would say don't hesitate.
Petrea Burchard is the perfect narrator for this series of books, so I'm looking forward to starting book 3. Oh, and I must mention the General, the cat that is, I just adore Petrea's interpretation of his 'voice' or mewls.
