About this listen

Sawyer Davis's new life in picturesque Sunset Cove is crumbling around her as fast as the old Victorian house she lives in. She's a chef whose matchmaking mother has left her a puppy, a bevy of single men to choose from, and a bookshop dedicated to whodunnits. Complete with a book club of amateur sleuths who live for death. When one of the members dies just after eating Sawyer's amazing truffle mac and cheese, Sawyer is immersed in an even bigger soup pot of trouble.

With her chef's reputation on the line, and an uncle after her inheritance, Sawyer teams up with the sheriff who once broke her heart - whether he wants her help or not - to solve the mystery. Will past hurts, and long-buried attraction for the sheriff stand in the way of solving the crime before the murderer strikes again?

Story was easy listening for walking or sleeping, character development okay, a couple of twists etc. The narration was pitiful - cheesy female robot voice and awful male character voices. It was so ridiculous that it let down the whole book from "East listening" to "grating and arduous"

Easy going. Awful narration

Good little story. Wasn’t a fan of the overly emotional narration outside of dialogue. Found it hard to determine at times what was inner dialogue and when the character was speaking out loud to other characters. Overall worth a listen if you like this genre

Nice simple murder mystery

The story might have been better to listen to if the narrator didn’t have such a robotic voice. Her narration for the men was at times a bit ridiculous and probably would have been better if she hadn’t tried unsuccessfully to go down three octaves. Story was okay but I won’t be listening to the next one.

It’s okay
