About this listen
The Fruitcake - A deadly twist on a popular Christmas tradition
Four friends, one fruitcake, and a ritzy town full of secrets . . .
What could go wrong?
When Holly Kelly moves from Miami to the lavish Laguna Palms neighborhood, seeking community and friendship-with her husband and rambunctious triplets in tow-she finds it in spades. She is soon drawn into the intimate lives of almost everyone in their beachfront cul-de-sac, especially her three new ride-or-dies: Gina, Greta, and Chloe.
But when the neighborhood's holiday fruitcake exchange takes a dark turn, the bodies start piling up. The deaths seem like accidents-at first. Meanwhile, their upscale suburb on the shores of Hutchinson Island, Florida, is also being plagued by a series of disturbing disappearances. Men vanish, then reappear in the neighborhood . . . but changed.
The four friends decide to do some sleuthing of their own, and what they find chills them to the bone. When it's Holly's turn to deliver a fruitcake to the Hudson sisters on Christmas Eve four years later, she hears screaming coming from inside the house . . . many different voices-and they don't sound female.
Can they uncover the twisted secrets of Laguna Palms before someone closer to home becomes yet another casualty?
The Fruitcake is a fast-paced thriller that drips with murder, mayhem, and delightful, often delicious Southern hospitality while split narration spins the tale from alternate perspectives. If you enjoyed the TV series Desperate Housewives, you'll love The Fruitcake-a twisty murder mystery you won't soon forget.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Great Murder Mystery Thriller!

I Loved this Fruitcake
I loved this audiobook! I am an obssessed audio listener mostly Suspense, Thriller, Mysteries and I was very excited to listen to this book and it did not dissapoint!!! It has a fresh new story line that was so well written as an extra bonus for me - it was funny! I can't wait to listen to more titles by Leah Orr! And I hope that there is another Fruitcake in the future! I highly recommend this 5 star binge!

The Fruitcake
This was really good! It was a twisty,horror type mystery I won;'t explain any further. Narration by Annalee Scott and Danny Montooth was wonderful! I was given this book free for an honest review. Oh,I loved the short story too!

Really kept you thinking
This story really kept me on the edge of my seat. I couldn't stop listening once Ib started. Loved the storyline. I will definitely look for more from this author.

Murder mystery
Liked how it took place in a very realistic setting, like the pandemic. Totally forget sometimes that we went through that.
A couple characters right off the bat, so pay attention. You don’t want to miss out on any details!
Kind of gave me SAW jigsaw vibes such as getting taught a lesson/discipline.
First read by this author. 4/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Very interesting fast pace murder mystery.
Easy read!

What's? The fruit Cake cursed?
I just like the going back-and-forth.And not knowing who the doctor was and where he fit in.

Interesting Book…
I’m not the biggest lover of mystery books, but was happy to give this one a try.
The story is pretty good. I thought it bounced around a little, but once it hits you, you catch up pretty quickly.
One thing I did not like at all was the singing. It wasn’t that she wasn’t a good singer, it was more, singing just doesn’t belong in a book.
If you’re on the fence, give it a try. It’s an interesting story

I loved every minute of it!!!
I loved the storyline, and how some people had their own well develop story. I had no idea where the storyline was going when I heard the man's voice but it was spectacularly thought out. I can't wait to read more of the author's books.
