Publisher's summary

Joseph Cabot is a very popular wealthy San Franciscan who owns the main newspaper in town, as well as radio stations and TV. Years ago, Brooklyn’s husband Derek and his security team rescued Joseph from an assassination attempt, and now the man and his wife are friendly with Derek and Brooklyn. The friendship is helped along by the fact that Joseph is a big book lover and contributes lavishly to the Covington Library. His favorite author is Mark Twain (another newspaperman), and he’s underwritten the first annual Mark Twain Festival at the Covington.

As part of the festival activities, Brooklyn will spend a few hours every day at the Library, giving demonstrations of her work, re-binding an old copy of The Prince and the Pauper. There will be events all week, all around town, celebrating the time Twain spent in the city. But the biggest event is being run by Joseph’s newspaper: a citywide contest based on The Prince and the Pauper - they want to find someone who looks like Joseph!

The two men will trade places for a week as part of a huge publicity campaign to raise money for the Covington Library. But the fun turns frantic when a murder occurs right before Brooklyn’s eyes! Now Brooklyn and Derek will have to chase clues all over their beloved city to solve the murder before another death becomes front-page news.

Terrible narration

I have enjoyed the complete series as to story lines, however this narrator was gawd awful. It was very difficult to listen when Derrick was in conversation with any of the other characters because his British accent was a caricature of the British accents in any of the previous books. It would be a shame to keep this narrator should we be lucky enough to have additional books in the series.

Great like the rest

Although it is well written and intriguing when you switch narrator's nake sure they pronounce words the same way its very distracting.

Paper Worthy

Great read. the story was good and falls in line with the other books. As for an audible I was happy with the change in voices. especially the Derek character it just through the whole vibe off for me, especially since I am listening to the series in order. However, well done as usual.

Horrid new narrator

I wish I had read the reviews before purchasing this book. The new narrator is horrible.

Sorry to hear about the loss of Susie Berneis

I loved listening to Susie narrate the Bibliophile Mystery series for many years. She brought many hours of listening pleasure to people who love the Kate Carlisle characters. I will miss hearing Suzie's expert accents and narrations very much.

Non-great

I totally agree with Customer — the new narrator is a big step in the wrong direction.

Narrator Is terrible

I have loved this series from book one.. This narrator pronounces words wrong. British accents are awful. And since when is Ian British? It's hard to listen to.

Disappointed in the narrator. Enjoyed the story.

Headline says it all. I enjoyed the story as the others but really disappointed in the narrator. I know they need to change but voices just didn't be rely the story as normal. I got confused at who was communicating.

Narrator not for me

I want the previous narrator back this one didn't do the characters justice. The storyline was a bit chaotic and not the usual format. I had a hard time keeping the characters straight. I don't know if that was related to the narrator or not.

I enjoyed the story

While I enjoyed the story. I did not like the current narrator. I really really liked the original narrator because you could distinguish between the characters. Your stories are very entertaining but the narrator that you currently use just isn’t my cup of tea.
