Melissa Craig is absolutely delighted with her new life in an old crumbling cottage, spending her days pruning the primroses and getting to know Binkie, the ginger cat next door. She only wishes she had made the move to the countryside sooner. But when a knock at the door brings news of a shocking discovery, she suddenly finds herself thrown in to the middle of a baffling mystery: the bones of a young woman have been found in the woods just behind her new home. Perhaps the little village of Upper Bembury is not as idyllic as it first seemed? Strange phone calls in the night convince Melissa that the police are barking up completely the wrong tree, so she can’t resist doing a little digging of her own. From the bingo hall to the beauty salon and beyond, her search ruffles a few feathers and uncovers many of the village’s most scandalous secrets, but gets her no closer to finding the culprit.

If You Enjoy listen A Great Mystery
I have always enjoyed listening to a good audiobook. I did not know that I would stumble upon a great mystery series that I can’ wait to start listening to an audiobook. What I enjoyed about this audiobook was that Claire Nicholls writes with such detail that you can vividly find yourself in the time, place, he is telling about. You can hear the sounds around you and imagine what you would see if You were there!! Such talent.

The Brutal Bordello of Bardolino
Kim continues to use her amateur sleuthing skills and uncovers a few unexpected crimes. She certainly seems to be making a name for herself.
I’m enjoying the European feel of this series. The author is keeping me interested with the unique storylines and the narration fits quite well.

I wish that I could give this way more than 5 stars. I think it deserves somewhere in the neighborhood of 12 to 15 stars. I don't normally leave written reviews, just stars, but this is worth dealing with my discomfort with writing.

Real surprises!
LGBT, Italy, friendship, international-crime-and-mystery, community, small-town, amateur-sleuth
Kim witnesses a car park fender bender and it leads her to investigate where the driver went afterwards. She tracks him to the local bordello, but something just isn't right. With more sleuthing she discovers credit card theft, car theft, and even worse crimes including something nasty going on with the sausage factory. She calls for the Carabineri and other help and winds up saving the jobs of the people in the small town!
Claire Nicholls continues to be marvelous as narrator.
