About this listen
Morgan Carter, owner of the Odds and Ends bookstore in Door County, Wisconsin, has a hobby. When she’s not tending the store, she’s hunting cryptids—creatures whose existence is rumored, but never proven to be real. It’s a hobby that cost her parents their lives, but one she’ll never give up on.
So when a number of bodies turn up on the shores of Lake Michigan with injuries that look like bites from a giant unknown animal, police chief Jon Flanders turns to Morgan for help. A skeptic at heart, Morgan can’t turn down the opportunity to find proof of an entity whose existence she can’t definitively rule out. She and her beloved rescue dog, Newt, journey to the Death's Door strait to hunt for a homicidal monster in the lake—but if they’re not careful, they just might be its next victims.

This book was a fun cozy mystery with heartfelt moments that had me crying.
Even though i was sad that our baddie was of human origin, i still like the ending of the book.
I honestly enjoyed the cryptid elements and how Morgan, our main character, and Detective Jon’s relationship development throughout the story.
Though I think personally that Newt, our brave doggy companion, really did steal the show. I love that little guy so much!
And finally I really truly love the audiobook for this one, I haven’t seemed to get invested in a audiobook for quite some time now, but Death In Door County really has seemed to rekindle my love of the talking books 📖 🎧
I will definitely be picking up the next book in this series very soon.
Must read if you like cryptozoology & cozy mysteries
