About this listen

Francesca Amaro moves back to her hometown of Cape Bay, Massachusetts, and takes over the family business, Antonia's Italian Cafe. She spends her days making delicious artisan cappuccinos - until she stumbles upon her neighbor's dead body. When the police discover Mr. Cardosi was poisoned, Francesca becomes a suspect. The victim's son, Matty, happens to be Francesca's old high school friend. Together they uncover the secrets of the locals in order to find the killer in their idyllic beach town.

A fun cozy mystery

I loved the characters, the cafe, and the twisted discovery of the one who killer a corpse. A beginning if a romance was th cherry on the top of the cupcake. The reader was perfect.

Great narration. Good cozy mystery.

The main xharacter is very likable. The book has,a perfect balance,-not too intense but definitely kept me intrigued. I looked forward to each time I got to listen to it.

Simplistic

Everything goes perfectly for Fran. A guy who pays for all date meals out, a dog who finds her, Only one ridiculous amateur detective mistake.
Not very interesting.

Fun and easy listen

I thought this was a great and relaxing book. A nice break from all the self help and sales books I usually listen to. I look forward to listening to another by Harper Lin.

Cappuccino, cupcakes & a Corpse

Story is ok, a little repetitive in sections. Character development is strong with some but shallow on others. Ending was a surprise.

Narration is acceptable.

Horrible narration

Narration was so bad I couldn’t finish the book. The story might have been good if not for that.

Enjoyable

I enjoyed this cozy mystery. The characters and plot were engaging. As always, Marguerite brings the story and characters alive and made the book more enjoyable.
