About this listen

It's the summer of 1963, and Gabriella Farnsworth is a newly minted London traffic warden.

She's used to temper tantrums, swearing, and threats, but finding a dead body is an entirely new low.

She isn't interested in getting more involved than she already is in the investigation into the man she found's death. But when a few days later, she stumbles over a second body lying feet away from where she found the first, she can't avoid it.

She knows the streets of her route and the people on them, but she is absolutely astonished when New Scotland Yard discovers the art gallery near where she found the bodies is a front for mixing up a new psychedelic drug.

Suddenly, the reason for the killings starts to make sense, but what neither she nor the New Scotland Yard detective assigned to the case understands is that the killer's agenda is more complex than a drug turf war, and by the time Gabriella works it out, it just might be too late...

Enjoyable

I got the Kindle version when the book first came out and really enjoyed it so I was hoping the audiobook would be good. I was not disappointed. In my opinion the narrator was an excellent fit for the main character and did well with the male characters as too.

The story moved forward at a pretty even pace and felt very much like a beginning or a prequel. That's not to say it wasn't a complete story because it was. No cliffhangers here thank you very much!
I felt like I was being introduced to the neighborhood and the time period. It's set in the 60's which is a couple of decades before my time but the author is good at her craft so it never felt too foreign.
It's a mystery but not an edge of your seat or Sherlock Holmes kind. For me it skirts the edge of cozy. I just wanted my knitting a blanket and a cup of tea.
I really liked the main characters. They were intelligent, resourceful, relatable adults and I look forward to hearing more about their lives and future adventures. Thank you Mrs. Diener for another fun, low stress story about adults who act like adults. I will be buying a physical copy of Ticket Out ASAP.

Great story. Great narrator.

Big fan of this author, but my first time with her exploring this genre. I definitely recommend it. Overall, a simply great story; suspenseful without too much gore and with an appealing, secondary slow-burn romance (implied, not explicit) that turned into something fantastic by a versatile and engaging narrator. Absolutely wonderful.

Excellent story and performance! Where’s Book 2?

Interesting story with a mix of cultures, accents, intrigue, bad guys and good guys. set in 1960s London. The traffic warden aspect was a unique insight. I’ve seen them depicted in movies and tv shows but only as a backdrop. Interesting. Eager for Book 2.
