Please note: This is a novella, not a full-length work.

As Peyton returns from her family leave, following the death of her father, she wants nothing more than to get back to solving crimes. However, her first case, the double homicide of a prominent wine-growing couple, has brought back all of the despair she felt upon losing her father. Can Peyton put aside her own loss in order to bring justice to the Saint-Pierres?

M L Hamilton and Kelley Hazen have done it again. Great short story and narration. I can't wait for more stories in "The Early Cases". The story flows smoothly and the narration emphasizes that.

I always enjoy M.L Hamiton / Kelley Hazen books. I don't typically spend the money on any books shorter than 8 hours, but I admit I can't resist this author / narrator combo. You shouldn't miss this intro to another series.

Hoping for more booksin this series.

I always look forward to new installments of the adventures of Peyton Brooks and her friends. A Sour Grape: The Early Cases, exceeded my expectations, and it will exceed yours as well. I am anxious for the next installment of A Peyton Brooks Homicide: The Early Cases series. Hamilton plans to release each right before Christmas. As always, Kelley Hazen brings Peyton and her friends to life with her skillful reading and ability to give each of them a unique voice. Bravo

I really enjoyed getting to know the early Peyton and Marco. We get to know other characters from their past. Great short listen from a great team: ML Hamilton and Kelley Hazen. Keep them coming!

Short and sweet, like Peyton

I absolutely love Peyton and Marco as they solve murders. This was one of their cases from early days which I did suspect who was the killer fairly early but was good. Only complaint was so short wanting more but great narration. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. Thank you

A Sour Grape (A Peyton Brooks Homicide: The Early Cases Book 1) was a great read by M.L. Hamilton. This is a new novella about some of Peyton Brooks early homicide cases. Peyton returns from her family leave, after the death of her father. Her first case ends up being a double homicide of a prominent wine growing couple. I loved listening to Kelley Hazen's narrating and how she brought life to the characters. I really enjoyed reading this book and can't wait to read more by the author.

Fantastic

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the narrator and enjoyed it very much. As with all the other Peyton books, this book is suspenseful and action pack showing both the bad and good sides of society. It's fun to go back in time to tales of Peyton and Macro working to solve murders as new Inspectors. The author has a special talent to create characters and stories that feel real and the narrator brings every story to life. This combination of author and narrator creates pure enjoyment. This story is just the perfect length for a nice escape.

A Great Listen
