Another blinder

Welcome back fellow readers and the next in the instalment of our favourite heroine Kat Carter.

I am loving the diversity this series is bringing me, each case is always that little bit different, the cast of characters is always fresh and interesting and even the staple people in the stories you know and love have yet another angle to learn about.

This tale leaves you shivering and I had no idea an avalanche could be the prime suspect in a murder, except it’s not that would be silly but the shadowy people involved very much are in the frame.

Having been to Vancouver a couple of times I like hearing of places I’ve visited or not places I want to go.

once again the minor roles in this story play as big a part of this story as the main ones do and achieve the aim of fleshing out a snowy wilderness.

Just when I think the series has reached an end, Colleen pulls another blinder out the bag of tricks .

Once again we welcome back our resident and brilliant narrator Petrea Burchard, who does an excellent job of weaving this chilly thriller.

This has been book three in the increasingly popular series but as I’ve found each can work well as a stand alone with only maybe minor throwbacks to the other books in the series.

I can’t recommend this series enough, I have enjoyed each one as much as the last.

Another great read (or listen) from Colleen Cross!

I listened to book 3 and book 4 back to back. Sometimes when I do that, I get bored with the characters, but not in this case. 

Katerina is getting pretty unlucky now. This is her second trip for pleasure in this series, and sadly the first trip on the yacht last time out didn't go too well. Well, it'll come as no surprise that her trip accompanying Jace to a luxury mountain lodge doesn't go quite as planned either!

No uncle Harry this time, and Jace is a bit of a pain - he always seems to be so enamoured with his hosts that he doesn't pick up on the clues that they're usually as dodgy as can be.  Kat doesn't though, and despite Jace never really believing her suspicions, she's not one to let a little mountainside avalanche danger get in the way of uncovering a good mystery, especially when environmental catastrophe threatens!

Environmentally Friendly Turns To Murder.

This is a well written murder mystery novel with plenty of intrigue. The pace is just right to keep you glued to the expertly narrated twisting plot as it unfolds to reveal a double murder and deception. The central characters are wonderful making this a great listen.

More intrigue and mayhem

Another great chapter in Katrina and Jade’s world of financial fraud and journalism. This time Katrina is taking some time off as they visit an environmentalist but in typical Katharine style there is soon a story to be found. I love these books and was not disappointed although I missed Kats uncle in this one.

Another hit

Oops she did it again! Ms Cross has presented us with another Kat Carter thriller. Thanks to Kat's naturally suspicious mind, she uncovered a massive fraud. I'd never have thought forensic accounting could be so fascinating, or so dangerous. The only downer for me is Jase. He always doubts Kat, questions her perceptions and is incredulous at the things she discovers. Has he not realised that she's always right and he's always wrong? About time Kat ditched Jase and found a partner who'd offer up their 100% support without hesitation. This was probably the most dangerous case Kat's been involved in, I hope she gets some down time after this. I did miss Uncle Harry! I love his character and Ms Burchard's voicing of him is absolutely spot on. I look forward to seeing him again in book 5, if there is a book 5, and I really, really hope there is, because this is a great series, which I recommend to all

Wow! I Loved It.

This was yet another great adventure written by the talented Colleen Cross featuring Kat and Jace. Kat seems to be able to find a mystery whatever she's doing and this time it's whilst she and Jace are in the mountains to enjoy a weekend getaway.

Jace had planned to do some work on a biography of a billionaire but then he's told that he will only be a ghostwriter, not the author. When he first heard this he wanted to call the whole thing off but Kat talked him into staying for the weekend because she wants to explore the area. While they are on their way there they came across some protesters who are protesting about a local mine, which had caused the contamination of the local drinking water. They want the source of the contamination to be cleaned up, somehow Kat becomes involved. Whilst exploring in an area she had been told to stay away from she meets two local protesters and finds herself staring down the barrel of a gun. She does, however, get them to lower their gun and begins to ask questions...

Shortly after that conversation, there is an avalanche which kills the two protesters and almost kills Kat too. Kat begins to investigate, was the avalanche really an accident or was it more sinister?

I don't want to say anymore because it would spoil a really good story but what I will say is the story flows well and is narrated really well by Petrea Burchard.

I was given a copy of this audiobook as a gift and am voluntarily writing my review.

Another action packed outing for Kat

This is the fourth book in the series, and this time Kat and her annoying boyfriend, Jase, go for a weekend break in the mountains. But things never go as planned and once again Kat is thrown into a murder mystery and uncovers another fraud. The book is action packed and keeps you on the edge of your seat. I did miss Uncle Harry though, and hope he will be back in the next book.

Petrea Burchard does her usual fantastic job narrating the book

Brilliant book and well narrated

This series of books keeps getting better and better.

This one follows Kat and her partner as they travel to the Alps where her partner is s supposed to be writing an autobiography on an environmentalist.

Whilst they are there two protesters die, almost killing Kat at the same time, so she goes off to investigate it.

The book is really engaging, helped by the beautiful narration and kept me intrigued all the way through

Just as great as the first three

Just as great as the first three. I enjoyed seeing the growth in the relationship between Katerina and Jace. This time, Jace is the one with the job and Katerina tags along for a relaxing vacation. However, I don’t think Katerina knows how to relax and soon she finds herself absorbed in another mystery. She’s in a remote location that makes it difficult for her to escape. I missed Uncle Harry in this book and hope he’s back in book five. I found the story extremely engrossing.
