About this listen

Mackenzie—Mack—Owens was supposed to live out every millennial’s dream, but instead it turned into a nightmare. Inheriting a house and bookstore, she was going to leave the New York City rat race after getting fired from her job and start a new life on the coast of Cornwall in England. No more 14-hour work days and rats the size of small toddlers. Hello turquoise waters, white sand beaches, and cobblestone streets.

Unfortunately, things don’t exactly go as planned.

Not only does she have to share this new home with an eccentric grandmother she's never met, but when she opens the bookstore to find a dead body on the ground, the police immediately hone in on Mack and her grandmother as the prime suspects. This move wasn’t supposed to mean a life spent in prison making toilet wine.

Instead of spending her days eating scones with jam and cream and selling books by the sea, she’s now got to work with her grandmother to find the killer and clear her own name. Sounds simple, right? Armed with nothing more than her wits and snarky attitude, Mack is about to find out that the charming coastal town has a secret dark side. And the aggravating private investigator with the sexy smile she keeps running into has something to hide, but what?

As she gets closer to finding the killer, Mack realizes she’s next on the hit list. Will she get to the bottom of this case before she finds herself at the bottom of the sea?

Ended up skipping to the end. Just couldn't hold my interest.
The characters were not interesting.

A Struggle to read

Loved the mix of American and British accents. The story was good but would have been great with more description of the scenery. Overall worth the buy is you love cozy mysteries.

Not as good as the Hibiscus Homicide series. I’ve listened to that whole series and look forward to the next one coming out

Interesting set up and setting w great appeal but thin plot. Characters need depth and plot needs more links and clues.

We’d listen to any book narrated by Brittney Pressley. She’s that good. But Jasmine Webb weaves a fun mystery in a place we’d love to visit, do even better.

Looking Forward to Book 2

I almost bailed out initially, disliking the brashness of the protagonist and the conventional bad girl language. The storyline eventually pulled me in along with the descriptions of Cornwall. I enjoyed it and would listen to a sequel.

I LOVED this book. The female main character is hysterical, bubbly, and fun to listen to as she works through this murder mystery. I will be listening to the rest of this series. I need to hear more. Also, Brittany Pressley is ABSOLUTELY one of my favorite narrators. 10/10 with all her characters.

Laughing through this one
