About this listen

“Compulsively readable, Drop Dead Sisters is perfect for readers who love shows like Bad Sisters and Dead to Me. A mystery about three estranged sisters who accidentally kill someone? Yes, please.”—Mindy Kaling

Three sisters reunite on a family vacation and rekindle their relationship the only way they know how—by covering each other’s tracks in a real-life murder mystery not even they can figure out.

Remi Finch has spent the better part of her adult life avoiding family—especially her sisters. They just don’t click. Besides, her unconventional upbringing and major anxiety have convinced Remi that she can’t build a relationship with anyone. Period.

When her parents plan a family reunion camping trip to celebrate their anniversary, Remi’s willing to reconnect, if only because she doesn’t have a choice. But then a dead body turns up at their campsite, and their sisterly bonding kicks into high gear.

No one knows the whole story, but the Finch women are prepared to cover up the pieces before anyone tries to put them together. It’s a precautionary measure, probably unnecessary. Nobody else was there, so how could they have seen anything?

Between old grudges and new dynamics, a handsome park ranger, and a body that won’t stay hidden, Remi is about to learn that nothing strengthens family ties quite like crime.

Critic reviews

“Soneela Nankani expressively performs this heartfelt and humorous family drama, making it a compulsive listen.… Nankani uses well-timed pauses to express sarcasm and add to the comedic effect. She provides great character differentiation of the family members. Hopeful tones reflect the sisters' determination to get through the weekend.”AudioFile Magazine

“Three siblings scramble to dispose of a dead body in this delightful mystery debut… Coombs laces the proceedings with plenty of black humor, à la Alfred Hitchcock’s The Trouble with Harry, and works in surprisingly moving meditations on sisterhood. Here’s hoping a sequel is in the works.”Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“[Amelia Diane] Coombs makes her adult debut with this delightful series starter with Hiassen-level wacky characters and plot twists and a heroine readers will root for.”Booklist

A bit too much contrived hand wringing toward the end. Other than that it was fine as a light mystery.

It was a fun easy read

The ending :) And that the family Stood together in spite of their differences .. this story was so real

The reality of that kind of family and the main character

I think the narrator is the only reason I stuck it out till the end.

The story is goofy and lighthearted at times but has some problems with development.

Happy ending galore even with a family of dumb azz murders. The youngest sister is the worst and I'm sure I'm supposed to empathize with her story, I just couldn't.

The instance romance was gawd awful and was strictly to give the youngest sister something, anything to make her less pathetic.

Dumb but goofy

This book was a great palette cleanser and a fun ride. It is a well balanced meal for you no matter what you look for in a book, a bit of: family issues & relationships, women's issues (inner conflict & outside conflicts both), humor, witty banter, mystery, adventure, suspense, the hot forest ranger love interest, a little taste of steam 🔥🌶 but not enough to make you blush. I had lukewarm expectations but I'm left with nothing but warm & fuzzies! It kept me on the edge of my seat, made me laugh, made me care about the fate of the characters and made me think about my own self image & family relationships! it's worth the credit & then some!

Refreshingly Unique & relatable

When I first started listening, I didn't think it was going to like but as continued to listening I rather. It was cute. I love how the all stuck together as a family, and did what they thought needed to be done regardless that it was a bad idea let alone a crime.

Not Bad!!!

Entertaining, but not life changing. Twists are relatively obvious. But cute story of a family coming together in the eyes of the protagonist.

Glad I read it

Remi’s extremely low self esteem and continual negative self doubt was too much!! Story line was enjoyable - almost stopped listening due to the lack of strength in Remi.

Too much self doubt

Narrator did a good job. Easy listen that was just fun with twists and turns. Family strong bonds.

Good fun - easy listening

Not bad, easy to listen to while doing other things. There’s was a lot I thought could have been left out.

It’s a good filler book.
