About this listen

 Sometimes the sweetest small towns can be big on bitter secrets …

Security analyst Grace Jordan never imagined she’d be solving a murder when she returned home to Sweet Cove, North Carolina. Or, that she was good at it.

Harboring a decades-long secret of her own, Grace leaves her carefully controlled, predictable city life for Sweet Cove to help her whimsical Aunt Lyla run her bookstore after the death of Lyla’s sister.

When a local businessman ends up dead surrounded by a mysterious collection of books, accusations fly, and Grace is determined to put her analytical smarts to work to uncover the truth.

Meeting a motley crew of locals along the way, including a mysterious older man with an unusual skill set of his own, Grace learns that logical analysis isn’t her only tool when solving mysteries.

Scandals. Secrets. Sweet Cove.

the story line was really good but the narration was less than desirable.
the lack of emotional inflections with the VV really dulled the experience.
I never knew who was talking because all the characters sounded the same. Appreciate the narrators so much more after this. I think I will stay away from the Virtual Voice narrations, not a fan.
