About this listen

She needs a crystal ball. Instead she gets a cat.

After losing her fiance, friends, and job, Wendy Fairmont moves back to her hometown to lick her wounds and start over. But when she discovers the man next door may have been murdered, she's sucked into an investigation that isn't making her too popular with the new neighbors.

Soon she encounters a former classmate who's transformed from nearly invisible to totally irresistible, making it difficult to stay focused on setting up her new photography business. Not only that, but her old school nemesis is now married to the small town's sheriff, and she's determined to make Wendy's life miserable. All this, as well as a stray cat channeling the spirit of her grandmother, makes Wendy's fresh start more like a dead end.

Will she be able to return to her former life, or will old demons resurface to destroy her future?

Negative Exposure is the first audiobook in the Killer Shots Mysteries. Part Gilmore Girls and part Nancy Drew, this series has plenty of snarky humor, quirky characters, and intriguing mystery to keep listeners coming back for more.

cozy mystery

I guessed who did it wrong which is a huge thing for me. This shows that the author knows how to make the reader not think about this particular character.
It was a fun listen and I am looking forward to reading other works by this author.
I would recommend it.

Photographer's Story

I really enjoyed this cozy murder mystery by Lisa B Thomas. I had not expected some of the twists that occurred in this story. I found some aspects of the book to be realistic (starting over, competition with former rivals) while others not so much. The story has some great humor along with endearing characters. I really liked Wendy and her antics, and fell in love with Cricket. Karen Krause is a new narrator to me, and she performed this book great! I thought she fit the New Mexico dialect. I requested this review copy audiobook and have voluntarily written this review. I will definitely listen to more books by this author and narrator.

A good introduction to a new series

'Negative Exposure' is funny, entertaining, and at times surprising - in a word, a good cozy mystery you'll likely choose to relax after a hard day's work. It's quite fast-paced, though the pace sometimes slows down a bit when the 'social' part takes over the 'criminal' side of the story. but both are equally well executed. There are enough twists in the plot and red herrings to satisfy your 'criminal mind' and enough quirky type of humour to make the social relationships between Wendy and all the people around her interesting to follow. Wendy herself has the kind of personality that will make you like her a lot - a seemingly lively, energetic former beauty queen, with hints of great sufferings and mystery in the past, who is also still involved in old-time school rivalry...

Narration by Ms Krause is very good. She does quite nicely all the voices in the book without exaggerating the male ones. the pace of her reading is also good, and she relays all the emotions convincingly. I liked it a lot.

Picture Perfect

Wendy, a former cheerleader, is dispirited. She expected her life to be better, more fulfilling by this time in her life, and she's living on financial fumes. Having inherited her Grandmother's house in her old hometown, things could be worse, but they could also be a whole lot better. Her neighbors are wacky, and not always nice. A high school rival, married to the sheriff, is determined to make her life even more miserable. And it looks like the spaghetti sauce next door is more than likely blood of a deceased inhabitant. Lots of twists and turns, snarky giggles, a potentially psychic cat, and great narration from Karen Krause. Thomas's cozy mystery is perfect for a commute, folding laundry, gardening, or relaxation with an entertaining read.

Enjoyable cosy mystery

A great short mystery that kept me entertained. An easy, enjoyable listen. Will listen to more books by Thomas.
Took me awhile to get used to the drawling narrative but it fit the story well.

A great cozy mystery!

Wendy is starting over back in her hometown. That hometown is a very small town where everyone seems to know everything about everyone... except they really don’t. Even though a neighbors death was ruled accidental, things don’t seem right to Wendy...

Lisa B. Thomas has written a great cozy mystery! I loved the characters and I’m really looking forward to Wendy’s next adventure.

Karen Krause did a lovely job with the narration. I would not hesitate to listen to more of her narrations.

Not bad, easy read.

Plot is okay, unexpected ending. Mild love interest. Good character development and enjoyable small-town descriptions. Would have enjoyed more interaction with the cat. I think what brought the story down for me was the narration. While Karen Krause does a pretty good job with a Texas drawl, she speaks very slowly. I had to change the speed to sound more like normal speech. Lisa's dialogue is a bit stilted; that could have something to do with Karen's delivery. I will read the next book.

Enjoyable Cozy Mystery

This is the first Cozy I have ready by Lisa Thomas and it won't be the last. I've got to find out the story of her brother now. Ms. Thomas creates a fun community of nosy neighbors and rivalries. I really enjoyed the mystery..it kept me guessing. I also appreciated how she set things up for more Cozies in Coscada, NM. yay!

Narrator Karen Krause was perfect for the snarky Wendy Fairmont. I snickered more than once at her shenanigans. Her inner dialogue will keep you wanting more. Ms. Krause hit all the punchlines and really captured the true essence of the characters. It was a fun listening experience. Thank you!

Fantastic Cozy Mystery

This one was a lot of fun... it has mystery, murder, paranormal elements, comedy, and a light romance. Honestly, what more can you ask for? I don't want to give anything away so I will keep this short. Wendy is moving back to her home town and into her grandparent's home that she had just inherited after a pretty big breaking-up. Shortly after she arrives she finds herself caught up in a mystery of a potential murder and the story progresses from there in such a cute, quirky way that I had a hard time putting it down. I highly recommend to those who love a great funny cozy mystery. The narrator did a great job and was enjoyable to listen to.
