Publisher's summary

Carrie Singleton has more than her fair share on her plate: her job at the Clover Ridge Library, preparing for her wedding to Dylan Avery, and hoping that the local art gallery doesn’t steal away one of her part-time employees. Her fiancé, Dylan, accompanies her to the beautiful home of Victor Zalinka—art collector and successful businessman—to select paintings for an art show at the library. While Carrie muses that Victor's home would be the perfect wedding venue, Dylan spots a forgery among the paintings in Victor's collection.

Then Martha Mallory is found murdered in her art gallery. With the assistance of Evelyn, the library ghost; the resident cat, Smoky Joe; and the office manager of Dylan’s private investigation company, Carrie comes up with a suspect list long enough to rival the size of an encyclopedia. During her investigation, Carrie stumbles across a terrible truth: Martha’s murder was part of something far bigger and more dangerous than she could have ever imagined. And it all leads back to the art gallery.

How far will Carrie go to find the killer and uncover the truth? If the killer finds her first—will Carrie finally be taken out of circulation?

Fun as usual

Carrie is a little annoying this time. She is just a little too nosy. What everyone is saying is not her business.

Review

Nice continuation of the series. A little time jump, but it worked out. Maybe just my audio but sound got oddly loud then quiet at times.

Another enjoyable adventure

An enjoyable adventure with Carrie, Dylan and Smoky Joe. Wonder when she’ll be hired as an consultant for the police force.

Follows format of typical cosy mystery

Cozy mysteries are primary written for women, but that doesn't mean a man would not enjoy them when they are good mysteries. Allison has created a decent series with okay characters.

One of my favs in the series!

I really enjoyed this addition to the series. Lots of twists and confusion on the crime. A perfect whodunit. Can't wait for the next one!

Pretty good

Overdue or Die is okay. Carrie was a bit annoying but it's an okay mystery. I'll probably get the next one.

Predictable

I guess some people would appreciate the predictability of it, but it’s just too predictable. I guess for that reason it makes it an easy listen. The main character was a little less cringe in this book. I believe it’s possible to have a book where the woman is strong and smart without trying to make the reader believe she’s perfect and everyone thinks she’s so perfect. Especially when you have also written some of the characters cringey thoughts. Also yet another storyline when the police are not smart enough to solve one single case small or big without the help of the librarian. (Strong side eye here lol) So it’s just ok, I’ve already guessed how the next story will go.

Not Great

To be fair, it's been a while since I listened to the other books in this series. I enjoyed those well enough, but this one was disappointing. I did enjoy the twist at the end, but the plot otherwise was not very engaging. The narration was fairly good, but sections of the recording (likely edits) have clearly been done with different equipment. The resulting audio was jarring. Fans of the series may enjoy this book, but it was only okay for me. I don't know if I will listen to any subsequent installments.
