About this listen

For Southern girl Verity Long, friendship means sitting down to stories and sweet tea on the front porch. For her gangster ghost housemate, it means dragging Verity out to a remote haunted asylum during a raging thunderstorm to do a favor for a long-dead mob boss.

But Verity is always ready to help out a friend, even one as eternally eccentric as Frankie. And in the case of Mint Julep Manor, the stakes are too high to refuse. The criminally insane mob boss holds a secret to Frankie’s past, one that might set Frankie free. Do the favor - survive the favor - and they might change Frankie’s afterlife for good. Fail, and they might never leave the asylum.

I really like this series. The story is good and there is a lot of humor in them. The only problem is the woman reading them. She wasn't that good to start and as the series goes on she has gotten worse. All the men in the book sound the same. I'll still enjoy the books. I just wish they would get another reader.

This is by far my favorite in this series. Definitely had me on the edge of my seat, looking behind my back a few times and needing to turn on lights at night while I listened haha The narrator did a great job scaring me many times with her spooky voices for some of the ghosts haha she does crazy ghost very well!

Thrilling Listen!

Fantastic

Seems to be a G rated series. Compared to demon hunter biker witch series, this one is tame. Yet somehow additicting.

Maybe nice girls don't tell.

I’ve fallen in love with the characters and setting of this series. I felt this story had much more depth to it than others as it dug into a part of history that most would rather leave forgotten.

A piece of history!

I really enjoy this series. This one is actually a bit spookier as they are trapped in the haunted asylum. The ending is beautiful and the fact that Verity is finally getting to the bottom of who killed Frankie the ghost.

Fun Installment

A locked room-style mystery in a haunted insane asylum, a gangster ghost other than Frankie, and more hair-raising mystery than Verity can shake a stick at made The Mint Julep Murders another sensational installment in Angie Fox's Southern Ghost Hunter series of paranormal cozy mysteries.

The Mint Julep Murders is the eighth in the series. It can be listened to standalone, but there are mentions of previous events that are better understood when read in order.

The Mint Julep Murders begin as many of Verity and Frankie's adventures when Verity, Frankie and Ellis head to an old insane asylum that has been bought and turned into an entertainment venue for those who want to explore and stay in a genuinely haunted locale for an expensive, exotic trip. With the owner's permission, they arrive for their own purpose- meet with a ghost gangster who sent word that he'll give them the answer to who murdered Frankie in exchange for a favor.

On arrival, they discover their simple meet up goes all to hash when the owner, Barbara, has a married couple who have come to stay the night, the rains have flooded the only bridge out, the power gets knocked out, the owner is murdered and the strongest ghost in the asylum has locked them all in until they solve the murder. Meanwhile, Ellis is injured, Frankie has his own criminal hijinks going on, the asylum ghosts are as disturbed/disturbing in death as in life, and Verity is less confident by the minute that any of them are getting out alive.

The historical context of this latest is the often brutal and horrendous treatment of asylum patients from ice water baths, electrical shock therapy, lobotomies, and, of course, the sad, but true reasons that perfectly sane people were put away into places like this. The set up of the therapies and exam rooms and treatment of the patients made a chilling ghostly setting for Verity's latest.

Verity got cocky in this one. She got more lucky than right and she could see why Ellis and even Frankie thought her new "vocation" of helping ghosts was dangerous and even deadly. She even gets mad when she overhears Ellis' concerns. But, she ends up in a tight spot and no help in sight and realizes that maybe Ellis has a point.

It was fun with a bit of extra thrill and chill as Verity stumbled and bumbled her way to the truth. That big reveal at the end is a great teaser for making me ready to snack up the next book and see where things go next.

Tavia Gilbert is the voice of the series and there is no one I'd rather hear voicing these characters and stories I love. Wise-cracking Frankie, sweet and good Verity, and solid and loyal Ellis among all the guest characters.

The Mint Julep Murders was a rush and had some hair-raising moments. Paranormal Cozy Mystery fans really need to tag this series for their reading stacks.
