About this listen

Writer's apprentice Lena London is enjoying life in Blue Lake and being newly engaged, but is soon drawn into the terrifying disappearance of one of her closest friends...

Lena is starting to feel like having it all may actually be possible! She and suspense novelist Camilla Graham are busily plotting their next novel and she's got a brand-new diamond ring on her finger thanks to her fiance, Sam West. The only blot on her Blue Lake life is a strange new corporation that has come to town called Plastisource. They seem to be intent on gobbling up prime real estate and changing the landscape of Lena's lovely adopted home.

When she and Sam get a call from their good friend (and Blue Lake detective) Doug saying that his girlfriend - and Lena's pal Belinda - isn't answering her phone and missed a date with him, they all head out to her home. The trio is shocked to discover that Belinda's purse and phone are at her house, along with a single red rose on her countertop - but Belinda herself is missing. Has she been abducted? Could the strange new corporation play a role in her disappearance? Lena is determined to find out and rescue her friend because she knows that the truth can be stranger and much more deadly than fiction...

I enjoyed the five books I listened to in the series. The author made a great twist out of forming tight, affectionate relationships from what normally would have been frienemies in ither cozy mysteries. The only complaints I have are: the narrator uses a hysterical-sounding voice in the climactic scenes, when the protagonist is written as a strong, resourceful woman; and there are only five books in the series ( or at least there are no others available through audible). Now jumping to the foodie series by Buckley!
