About this listen

Libby Forest is hot on the trail of the killer when disaster strikes closer to home.

The sudden death of an elderly volunteer at Dunster Castle rocks the Castle’s ancient calm to its core leaving members of the local History Society devastated. When the finger is pointed at a fellow volunteer, his wife Margery fears her husband of forty years may be the killer.

Libby Forest, in partnership with Max Ramshore and their two much-loved dogs, Bear and Shipley are determined to find the castle killer – no matter who it may be.

This is my first book of this series, I know it isn't story 1, but since it was included in my Audible, I downloaded to have a listen. I really enjoyed the story and narration. The pace of story was perfect for me, and the plot was a relaxing type, kept one wondering whodunit yet not heart pounding. I like Libby and the supporting casts . The narrator had a nice soothing voice to match the characters and story. I will be getting book 1 to start this series.

This was a basic cozy murder mystery with a little dog kidnapping on the side. Good characters and decent plot. All the pieces tied up in the end.

Pleasant enough story but it was a bit hard to follow. I tried going back once the killer was revealed to see where I failed to pick up clues. I couldn’t find the threads. So the big reveal was a bit of a surprise. I agree with others that the motive is a bit thin. I did like the narrator although I found it difficult to distinguish all the voices. If it wasn’t included in plus catalog I would have considered a return. I will read the next plus catalog addition to see if i can get closer to the characters.

Just ok
