About this listen

From the “Queen of Canadian crime fiction” (Winnipeg Free Press) comes the 16th instalment of the much-loved Joanne Kilbourn series.

The latest novel in the Joanne Kilbourn Shreve series opens in the month of May, a time of beginnings when all things seem possible. Joanne’s husband, Zack, recently elected mayor of Regina, is optimistic that he can garner the public support necessary to make Regina a city that works—not just for the few, but for the many. Their oldest son Peter is marrying Maisie Crawford, a woman as clever and forthright as she is lovely. Their lakeside wedding is a dream come true, but when a former lover of a member of the bridal party shows up, the dream becomes a nightmare. Before the bride's bouquet has wilted, there's an act of sickening cruelty; soon afterwards, there’s a murder.

Devastated, Joanne and Zack search for answers. As it becomes increasingly unclear whether political agendas, shattered romance, or a secret buried deep in the past have motivated the crimes, the loyalties of the Shreve family are tested. A gripping mystery with a social conscience, this is a novel of high stakes and innocence lost.

saga continues...

Read 1st few books after seeing Kilbourn mystery movies years ago. Really enjoyed. Finally resumed & very disappointed. Don't recall earlier series being so boring. Lot extraneous dialogue & descriptive narrative, notably about food, drink, exercise. Not sure if I would call this a mystery. Zero suspense, baddies are transparent. Filled with political prattle. In 2024 tired of all conniving bad actors trying put their "narrative" in place & bleeding tax payer for personal gain. Most characters are in this game. Surprised character from last book returned being redeemed after gaslighted a woman into suicide. This book definately win win for those who worship progressives that live perfect lives in an ivory tower and think they know what's best for everyone.
