From USA Today best-selling authors Elizabeth Ashby and Traci Andrighetti....

This salon's styles are to die for.

Native Texan Cassidi Conti was expecting to face some obstacles when she moved to Danger Cove and opened The Clip and Sip, a hair salon that gives away free drinks. What she wasn't counting on was a client dying during a dye job. But when 80-year-old Margaret Appleby comes in for her biweekly appointment, that's exactly what happens: Margaret drinks her usual soy chai, dozes off under the dryer...and doesn't wake up. Now, The Clip and Sip is under suspicion, clients are wary, and Cassidi is on a mission to prove that while her styles may be killer, her employees are innocent!

But as Cassidi wades through the myriad of suspects in the small coastal town, the killer sets his sights straight on everyone's favorite stylist. If Cassidi doesn't watch her back, she may just end up Danger Cove's latest fashionable victim.

About Danger Cove: Danger Cove is a sleepy little town in the Pacific Northwest and home to renowned mystery novelist Elizabeth Ashby. While Elizabeth swears the stories she writes are fiction, you can find the inspiration for her murderous tales all over Danger Cove...from the intriguing cast of local characters to the places to eat, play, and explore in Danger Cove. Don't let our name fool you - we're the friendliest (even if deadliest) town in the Pacific Northwest!

Deadly Dye and a Soy Chai: Danger Cove Mysteries, Volume 5 by Traci Andrighetti and Elizabeth Ashby, narrated by Kayla Perillo is one I was excited to listen to, since I'm a huge fan of Andrighetti's series, Franki Amato Mysteries. While it was entertaining, I think I would have enjoyed reading it more than I did listening. This is the first book I've listened to in the series, and it works as a stand-alone. I don't think it is as funny as Andrighetti's other work, but it has its moments. If you are a cozy mystery fan, you will enjoy it.

I listen to audiobooks all the time. Over the years, I've developed my own preferences, likes, and dislikes regarding the narration of a piece. What may not have bothered me when I first started listening years ago, might now stick out and take away from my overall listening experience. In this case, I was not a fan of the narration; the quality seemed like it could have been better. The "white noise" in the background and the changes in sound, volume, and voice at some of the chapter breaks were distracting. This is the first time I have listened to Kayla Perillo perform as a narrator. She stayed in character throughout, but I just feel it could have been better. Everyone deserves a second chance, though, so if I come across her work again, I will give it a try. I just hope the recording of it is of higher quality, making it less distracting to the listener, overall.

I don't like being negative, but my reviews wouldn't be helpful to anyone if I wasn't truthful. It's also important to remember this is just my opinion, and you may actually feel the exact opposite. Had I read Deadly Dye and a Soy Chai, my rating may have been higher, in this case, but being that I only listened, my overall rating is between 3.5-3.7 out of 5 stars. I'm a HUGE fan of Andrighetti's work, but this one just wasn't my favorite. For now, I'm going to stick with her Franki Amato series (which I highly recommend!). Happy listening!

Thank you for reading my review. I hope it was helpful. :-)

It's okay....

This series is really well written, the characters are well developed and you really enjoy getting to know each character which pulls you into the story line (that is a true art - not all authors do that). The mystery is well plotted and you enjoy trying to figure out "who dunnit!"

Loved it!

Deadly Dye and a Soy Chai was such an exciting book to listen to. As a fan of murder mysteries, I found myself invested in the happenings of Danger Cove and was consistently on the edge of my seat waiting to peg suspects and solve it myself! What's more, Kayla Perillo served as an excellent narrator, seamlessly transitioning between a myriad of accents - which isn't easy!

Thrilling Story with a Great Narrator

Deadly Dye and a Soy Chai is a fun, light-hearted mystery that stays serious enough to keep interesting, but light-hearted enough to make it very enjoyable and easy to listen to. The narration was fantastic and really enhanced the story with different voices and accents to bring the characters to life, and her voice is great to listen to. I hope another audiobook follows soon!

This is the first book in this series that I have listened to but it won't be the last. I knew Traci Andrighetti to be a great writer as I love her Fanki Amato series so thought I would give this book a go, so glad I did as she didn't disappoint. I don't think it is quiet as funny as her Fanki books but it follows the same light hearted humour with great characters.

How do you keep a new business up and running when one of your customers dies under the dryer and one of your employees is accused of the unusual murder, oh and the shop you work in used to be owned by ladies of the night and there decor is still plainly visible Things really steam up when somebody starts planting evidence and it a race against time to so love the murder before the police make an arrest.

This was the first time I heard this narrator and found her speaking to pleasant and easy to listen too.

Over all a good book!

I am a huge fan of Cozy Mysteries. I stumbled upon Traci Andrighetti's page and her books sounded fun. This installment of the Danger Cove Mysteries takes place in the town's hair salon. The story follows the new Hair Salon's owner, Cassidi Conti, who inherited the salon from her recently deceased Uncle Vinny. Uncle Vinny was known around town for his appreciation for erotica, especially since the salon was the town's former brothel. While Cassidi is trying to increase revenue at her salon and improve the salon's image, a known community member is murdered in the salon. To top it off, her uncle's suspicious death is also unsolved. Cassidi and her wacky cousin from New Jersey try to see if they can solve the murders to redeem their livelihood. Each of the characters have their own quirky characteristics and contribute to the sleuthing in their own way. There are many twists and turns that keep you wondering until the end. Not only can't I wait to read more by Traci, but I also want to read more from the Danger Cove series. The narrator did a great job of differentiating between characters. It was easy to understand who was talking and when the person changed.

Cassidi Conti moved from Texas when her uncle left her a house and hair saloon. Her Cousin Gia came with her to be the makeup artist. Trying to get her business off the ground, work on a business degree and give pay her bills is hectic. Then a customer dies in her salon chair and now she has a murder to solve. Quirky and and a little romance. Recommend series.
