About this listen

Even small towns have secrets....

Hadley James is finally living the life she’s always wanted: making jam and selling it at the local farmers market. When a cat-sitting job turns into a murder investigation, life no longer seems so perfect.

Her twin brother, a deputy sheriff, is on the case but they’ve always done everything together and she can’t help but get involved. Following a trail of crafty clues, the James twins learn that their sleepy town might be harboring more darkness than they could’ve imagined.

A crafty plot

This is the first book by this author that I have read or listened to but it won't be the last and in fact I have already downloaded book two. I really enjoyed this cozy mystery. I liked the characters and the fact the main characters all thought they were right about who the killer was and set about to prove they were right, this led to lots of suspects, guessing and a number of twists. Hadley is very human and is trying to get over a divorce, which is made harder when all the shops in the village is run by ex family members, which gives the story a very interesting touch and a look into village life.
Hadley's cat sitting job it brought to a sudden holt when she stumbles over the dead body of the cats owner. She wasn't the nicest woman in the village and her only friends seem to be the ladies in her knitting group. But even there it turns out she had enemies. Hadley, her best friend and her twin brother set about trying to get to the bottom of the murder in the town that they all love. Will it help that they know everyone in the small town? With lies and history involved the trio must work together to unpick all the tangled knots.
I liked the narrator and thought she did a good job bringing the characters and village to life.

loved it

I must say I enjoyed this way more than i thought i will, but then again cat's sold it for me...and sweats <3
The characters are very likable, and the story is interesting, you never know who done it until the very end, and it definitely wasn't who i thought it would be, at least in the 1st book. I am on 5th now, and maybe in 2 i managed to GUESS [still wasn't sure], so just that is a massive plus for me, that it wasn't very predictable. I also got to like the narrator very much, and i am not a massive fan of female narrators, or maybe I just had a bad luck finding ones i like, UNTIL NOW :)
Her effort on male voices for me is brilliant, I am definitely going to finish the series and hope the last one comes out quickly.

Brilliant start to the series!

A fast paced mystery with charming characters. I loved how likeable the characters were and how they were represented as a close knit little group. I felt like part of the gang as it was easy to feel their emotional connections to each other. I also loved the fact that there was a cute little cat in the story too.
I'm really looking forward to reading book two and so on and to see how the romantic sub plot develops through the series.

The story was very easy to listen to as the narrator did a great job.

I voluntarily reviewed an advance audio review copy.

Good mystery in a cute village. Recommended.

I developed a love hate relationship with this village, I'd love to live in the small, artsy area but would hate the gossip (we have places like that in England to) but it makes for a great place to set the book. It was very descriptive and I could easily picture it. The mystery was well thought out and kept you guessing to the end. A very enjoyable book, highly recommended.
