About this listen

In this delectable new cozy mystery series, social media maven Maddy Montgomery’s perfectly ’grammable life has come undone, and she’s #StartingOver in a tiny town with one giant problem—a killer on the loose …

When Maddy Montgomery’s groom is a no-show to their livestream wedding, it’s a disaster that no amount of filtering can fix. But a surprise inheritance offers a chance to regroup and rebrand—as long as Maddy is willing to live in her late, great-aunt Octavia’s house in New Bison, Michigan, for a year, running her bakery and caring for a 250-pound English mastiff named Baby.

Maddy doesn’t bake, and her Louboutins aren’t made for walking giant dogs around Lake Michigan, but the locals are friendly and the scenery is beautiful. With help from her aunt’s loyal friends, aka the Baker Street Irregulars, Maddy feels ready to tackle any challenge, including Octavia’s award-winning cake recipes. That is, until New Bison’s mayor is fatally stabbed, and Maddy’s fingerprints are found on the knife …

Something strange is going on in New Bison. It seems Aunt Octavia had her suspicions, too. But Maddy’s going to need a whole lot more than a trending hashtag to save her reputation—and her life.

Cute and fun

Felt like an incomplete explanation at the end…is there a second book? I would have liked to see her evolve to using fewer posts and hashtags toward the end and living more comfortably n the real world. Also, the whole thing would work better if she had previously had a magical summer as a child with her beloved great auntie before she was seduced by a life of social media and money.

Entertaining

The story was entertaining and shallow. It was a light mystery read for sure, easily solvable. I did appreciate the recipes at the end.

A light diversion

Pleasant enough listen that I stayed to the end. Good story but needed more layers and development. I would listen a future effort.

Great cozy mystery

Madly Montgomery’s life unravels when her groom doesn’t show for their live stream wedding. When her Aunt Octavia dies she moves to New Bison, MI. There she inherited her aunt’s house, business and Baby, an English mastiff puppy. Then the mayor is found murdered in her cafe and she the suspect. Great start.
