Publisher's summary

Can a stalled murder investigation in Halcyon Springs pull Izzie Di Sante back into investigative journalism?

The mere thought of getting involved in the investigation shifts Izzie's mind into overdrive. A former reporter turned restaurant owner, she's determined to find out everything she can. Only the more she discovers about Drew Scanlon’s murder and his new wife’s hurried placement in a psychiatric facility, the more questions she has.

With the detective instructed to tread carefully given the social status of the family, the investigation of Drew’s murder stalls. His parents spin a story that casts his wife, Bethany, as the prime suspect. Sedated and at the mercy of her caregivers at a private facility, Bethany is helpless to defend herself against their accusations. Nothing adds up in Izzie’s mind, spurring her to delve deeper while doing her best to balance her search for justice with her responsibilities at the family restaurant.

Excellent Cozy

An Itch for Justice is Book 1 in the Izzie Di Sante Mysteries by Christa Nardi. Izzie is an interesting character. She runs a family restaurant with her chef sister, but, her heart is set on investigating journalism. I found the murder interesting and I thought that it was so clever to put the victim's wife in a psychological hospital. Izzie met her uber driver, Henry, who used to be a police officer. I felt that it was a clever way for Izzie to get help. Janelle V Bennett was a good narrator and I thought she brought the book to life. I can't wait for book 2.

Great!

An Itch for Justice is a clean mystery that I would recommend for teens and up. This is a new series and it’s off to a fantastic start in my opinion . The author kept me guessing until the end and I enjoyed the romantic undertones. The narrator gave a nice performance, as well. I’m looking forward to the next book in this series!

Wonderful story!

An Itch for Justice is #1 in the Izzie Di Sante mystery series by Christa Nardi. Izzie is trying to juggle investigative reporting with managing her family’s restaurant. This story centers on a murdered man and his wife, who is being held in a psychiatric institution. The situation doesn’t add up and Izzie is trying to get to the bottom of things. The narration by Janelle V Bennett is absolutely great. She brings the characters and story to life. I received a free copy of the audiobook for my honest review.

Crime Writer Intrigue

The author weaves an intriguing tale of a restaurateur who writes crime articles. In researching this particular murder she experiences the start of her own possible romance. The restaurant and staff are a nice touch of family as the crime drama unfolds around them. The murderer is revealed of course and the restaurant thrives. If you have an itch for more there are more books in the series. Each is a stand alone but fun to read multiples to pick up more on the relationships involved. I enjoyed the narrator who brought a good balance of the various characters.

twisted

It was a bit chilling to see the lengths "money and entitlement" will go to meet their selfish needs. Callous and without humanity or remorse. No one wins with these outcomes. Sad. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job bringing it to life.

Cozy Culinary Mystery

I enjoyed the first book in the "Izzie Di Sante Mysteries". The mystery was puzzling and intricate. I liked the main character Izzie Di Sante. I liked that she was portrayed as being a rational, intelligent woman, who was courageous enough to choose to follow her dream, while still helping her sister with the family business. I am looking forward to the next book in the series. Janelle V. Bennett's narration was entertaining. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

Another great cozy mystery series

I listened to 3 of the Izzie Di Dante Mayteries and loved all of them. All 3 do stand on their own but I recommend reading them in order. Crista Nardi writes a great cozy mystery leaving you wondering who could have done it. I really enjoy her writing.

The narration by Janelle V Bennett is excellent. She does a great job with the different characters.

I will listen to these two again.

I was given this audiobook at my request and have volunatriley left this review.

My reaction was the same as Izzy’s

I thought the story was great but the mystery murder could have been more shocking. I hope the next books continue with the same characters for deeper development. I was also a bit distracted by the narrator. She did a great job and has a great voice but I could hear her catching breath before speaking. Otherwise I enjoyed the narrator and enjoyed the book.
