Franki's coffee shop noir is a hard nut to crack!
It’s a slow, steamy summer in New Orleans’ French Quarter, but Franki Amato is busy planning her bridal shower—that is, until a hit-and-run outside a coffee shop gets her PI senses percolating. The victim is linked to crimes at a fancy society wedding in a haunted hotel where Franki’s fiancé’s family is staying. As for the java joint, it’s straight out of a hardboiled detective movie, and there’s something hinky about its walnut liqueur coffee.
Franki’s Sicilian nonna says the macabre events are proof the malocchio has been cast on her impending marriage, and to her utter surprise, her future grandmother-in-law also suspects the evil eye. To save her wedding and solve the case, Franki must investigate some shady places, from a witch shop and bridal swap to a shack in the swamp. She has to uncover the identities of a femme fatale and a jewel thief and unravel the meaning of a deadly delivery. If she doesn’t, this noir mystery could turn Grimm fairy tale
Nocino Noir is book 9 in the Franki Amato Mysteries, but it can be listened to as a standalone story. If you like zany characters and laugh-out-loud humor with a splash of suspense, then you’ll drink up this fun series by USA Today Bestselling Author Traci Andrighetti. Cheers!

The narrator for the series is fabulous!! She does the voices very well. It’s so fun listening to her. I am highly entertained and do a lot of laughing throughout the book. At the end of the audiobook there was a section of bloopers and they were very funny! I don’t know how you can narrate a funny book without laughing!
I am a big fan of the author from the very first book. I’m not sure how I came across these books, but I’m sure glad I did. They are well written with fun details about New Orleans and whatever the story is about. There is romance, PI business, quirky characters and hilarious Italian family dynamics!
We have slowly been getting close to Franki’s wedding and excited about her romance with Bradley. Of course her Nona and mother want to move things along! And everybody else wants to interfere with the wedding plans.
The mystery was fun and all the people Franki runs into as she is doing her detecting. I really should visit New Orleans!
It would be so fun if this series was turned into TV series or a movie. I truly love all the characters. I appreciate an author who can be so creative with a storyline and making characters so distinctive and real.
A favorite series of mine!

Now, let’s talk about the narration…you know how when you listen to an audiobook and you’re so into it that you don’t even notice someone is actually narrating because the story just comes to life before your very eyes? Well, that’s how I felt listening to Madeline Mrozek in Nocino Noir, but, as more characters were introduced, I found myself wondering if I had it all wrong. Was this audiobook actually narrated by a full cast of narrators? How could all of these quirky characters - that sound so dramatically different - be played by just one woman? Well, they are ALL played by Mrozek, and there are even bloopers at the end to prove it (which I also loved!). Needless to say, I found myself paying extra close attention to the actual narration more than usual because, on the whole, it is an experience within itself!
As an educator, myself, I’m going to take it one step further and say that this performance by Madeline Mrozek is so impressive it should be used in theater and acting courses; or, maybe, Mrozek should be teaching them herself…not that I want her to stop being a narrator, of course, but her talent goes beyond the norm, and these are the types of skills that students would greatly benefit from. In addition to being funny, engaging, and unbelievably consistent in her delivery, Mrozek’s flow is seamless, and her style is spot-on. She is a true inspiration to aspiring actors and narrators everywhere. Bravo!!
I give Nocino Noir by Traci Andrighetti, narrated by Madeline Mrozek, a full 5/5 stars across the board. The characters will pull you in from page one, and the storyline will keep you guessing through to the end. Whether you’re looking for a clean mystery with hilarious characters or a book with top-notch narration, I wholeheartedly recommend this audiobook (and series) to you!
Thank you for reading my review. I hope it was helpful. Happy listening. :-)

You'll laugh your sox off even if you haven't followed the series, but you'd be missing even more stress busting, laugh-out-loud fun!
Frankie Amato is really in the soup with the Sicilian Grannies this time! She's trying to plan her wedding, avoiding the Sicilian Grannies, trying to hide the wedding shower from them, continue her assignment as a PI, find out her fiancé's deep family secrets, and solve a murder.
I still don't know how Madelyn Mrozek can narrate these books without cracking up and guffawing during the recording!
I won this audiobook in a giveaway! Yea, me!
