Samantha Washington has dreamed of owning her own mystery bookstore for as long as she can remember. Now that she's preparing for her store's grand opening, she's also realizing another dream - penning a cozy mystery that's set in England between the wars. While Samantha hires employees and fills the shelves, her pen has quick-witted Lady Penelope Marsh, long-overshadowed by her beautiful sister Daphne, refusing to lose the besotted Victor Carlston to her sibling's charms and stepping in to solve the murder of one of Daphne's other suitors....
But as Samantha indulges her imagination, the unimaginable happens in real life. A shady realtor turns up dead in her backyard, and the police suspect her - after all, the owner of a mystery bookstore might know a thing or two about murder, right? Aided by her feisty grandmother and an ensemble of colorful retirees, Samantha is determined to close the case before her store opens. But will she live to conclude her story now that the killer has a revised ending in mind for her?

Tbh, I am wondering if some of my next observations may be different if I had read the book instead of listening to the audio version.
I did not like moving back and forth between what was currently happening and Samantha's manuscript. Besides the action taking me out of the primary story, with listening to the audiobook, the transitions from one to the other was not always a clear cut transition.
I would have been ok with references to Sam's manuscript throughout the book, but the constant back and forth was disconcerting.
I am not a historical mystery reader, but I did find the story interesting. Both were interesting to me, yet I found it hard to stay full engaged with either one.
Narration Was Ok. Only Needed One Story!

Story’s okay but the narrator...

I liked the characters. Sam has a complex family, loving in spite of their flaws. She has a problem with reverting to old behaviors around them which I find believable. Her grandmother’s gang of seniors are delightful - fans of Jana DeLeon’s Gertie and Ida Belle, take note!
Sour note: calling people by hurtful nicknames is bullying when it involves children and teens, and it is still bullying when dragged back out in adulthood. Stop it. The person being attacked in this way has done absolutely nothing to deserve it.
I will definitely go on to other books in the series.
Two stories in one!
