Publisher's summary

Welcome to The Blue Spruce Coffee Shop Where the Java is Hot and the Murder is Cold Blooded

The Blue Spruce coffee shop in the heart of Myrtle Lake retirement village does a bang-up business all day long, keeping barista Charlie and owner/grandmother Carla on their toes. Local eccentrics like a former Broadway dancer, a famous landscape painter, a dotty psychic, and a mischievous sea captain pop in to share tall tales and ribald jokes, much to the delight of their over-caffeinated neighbors.

But this happy crew gets the shock of their lives when Fritz Caulfield, a lovely man and horrible sculptor, drowns in the village’s pristine pool and 24-year-old Charlie’s accused of his murder.

Join Charlie and Carla and their eccentric friends as they solve murders and investigate the strange ghost lights in the nearby forest.

This is the complete 6 book series including these books:

Mishaps and Murder

Hijinks and Homicide

Capers and Carnage

Pranks and Pandemonium

I was curious about the AI. Then spent the book feeling guilty about listening to it.

The story was ok, but the AI was horrid. Trust your gut, don’t do it.

good story lines

liked the stories but this is listed as a cozy mystery but has an abundance of bad language. The reason I pick cozy mysteries is to avoid that. The language adds nothing to the story.

Was this narrated by AI?

The characters are cute but the mysteries are predictable. The narration is difficult to listen to. SO many mispronounced words and no emotion. It is pretty monotone and has no pauses for punctuation.

No virtual voice please

The story content is ok, but where was the editor? I heard so many mistakes that the author and editor should be embarrassed. The virtual voice is a bad idea. The machine doesn't know how to interpret. "She" was not on point. I'm disappointed in the whole concept. Much more virtual & I'm going back to reading the books myself.

The writing is awful, narration even worse

One of the worst books I’ve listen to and I have 4277 books in my audio library. The writing is juvenile. The narration is some of the worst I’ve ever heard.
