Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

My fiancé brought me tea and scrambled eggs in bed that morning, and we snuggled together, talking about buying our rings, and about our perfect wedding next year. Then we headed into town. He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Perfect combination the books by this author and the narration by Stephanie Quinn. Always enjoyable one to listen to. You love the characters, and the murder that always seems for her to solve. This one had a few surprises awaiting her also.

Caramels, Custody, and Cruelty was a great read by Meredith Potts. Melody is a private investigator who makes a discovery she never expected during a custody case. She has more surprises in store in her personal life. This was another good read by Meredith Potts.

Another well-written & enjoyable cozy mystery
Caramels, Custody, and Cruelty (Melody Clue), my forty-fourth short read from author Meredith Potts, Another cute, well-written & enjoyable clean cozy mystery series. I was been given an Audible copy of this book & am voluntarily reading & reviewing it. As in so many of her audiobooks, Stephanie Quinn’s talented narration adds to the book's enjoyment. I look forward to reading Cupcakes, Conundrums, and Calamity, the next in this series. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

Short, nice, and clean
romantic, private-investigators, law-enforcement
Melody Clue is half of a Private Investigator agency with her friend. It starts out with a stake out for a custody case that was unpleasant then moves on to a first date with an old high school friend with her mom being the cheerleader. A nice short read.

Excellent listen
I am really enjoying this series featuring Melody Clue. A little darker themed than others by Meredith Potts, we get to go on Melody's undercover stakeouts and what we find out is not always heart happy. This one takes us on a custody battle, and the results are not pretty. We also get to check out Melody's budding relationship with police detective, Scott. Will it ever take off? It's a fun, quick listen!
