About this listen

Young retiree Cleo Mack is trading in academia for a second act in Harbor Village, a community for active seniors in coastal Alabama. But someone in this picture-perfect coastal town is burning the candle at both ends...

It's love at first sight when Cleo arrives in Fairhope, Alabama, after taking early retirement from her longtime position as professor of social work. Touted as "the nicest town in the world," Fairhope is home to an eclectic community of retirees. Harbor Village boasts classes in painting, pottery, and photography, not to mention being a buyer's market for husbands. It seems an ideal place to make new friends and rediscover life. Until a dead body is found in the pool.

When the victim turns out to be the unpopular director of senior living, Cleo is named acting director. Now she must rely on her well-honed people skills to uncover a killer in a place where short-term memory isn't what it used to be, and age is just a number. And if Cleo keeps snooping around, her number may soon be up....

An easy to listen to book. Engaging story and kept me entertained. I enjoyed this lighthearted but captivating story.

This is a typical American 'Whodunnit', populated by a variety of characters who fit numerous stereotypes. The plotline is very thin and the whole book is padded out by incessant unnecessary detail. Do I want to know where every item of furniture is put in a new apartment, or what the decor is? Do I want know where every shopping item is stored and which shelf of the refrigerator houses the peanut butter? Do I want a full rundown if every meal consumed? It goes interminably on. I waste two hours in before anything connected with the main plot line of a murder occurred. It passed the time on a long drive and didn't tax the intellect to any degree.

Harmless
