Publisher's summary

Meet the ladies of Portman's Creamery. Led by Irene and Chrissie Garcia-Galvan, this team of detectives solves the cases that others cannot. Join Pippa, Becca, Mary Beth, Stacey, and Winky on their latest quest, taking them into the medical field.

When a well-known and loved doctor is found shot inside his own office, the women of Portman's Creamery are called in. No sign of struggle, no sign of a break in. It is as if the killer walked in, committed the crime, and walked right out. No clues are found at the site. Upon investigating, they realize the doctor isn't the only who has been killed in such a manner. It has been going on for a while. There is a big secret that he's been keeping and the ladies have to hurry before the killer strikes again.

good but predictable

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher. This book was good, but somewhat predictable as far as who the killer was. I figured it out about halfway through. Sometimes I also felt that the plot could have been a little more complex. The narrator did a good job on the different character's and was easy to listen too.

How did this by editing

The first few chapters are just horrible. Many of the sentences are repeated. I found this so annoying I almost stopped listening. But I did listen to the end. Ruby Rivers does a okay job with the narration. I found the story not very interesting and maybe all this is because of my annoyance at the beginning. But this book was just not worth my time. I received this book with the understanding that I would leave an honest review.
