Publisher's summary

A ghost's antics, a harrowing moose chase, a hypnosis session, and smuggled booze lead to spilled secrets and betrayal, but do they also lead to murder?

At a hot springs retreat in Montana, whiskey-swigging Maude, the nearly eighty-year-old chef, longs for the glory days when the retreat hosted martini-sipping celebrities instead of long-haired hippies who refuse to wear deodorant.

Brooke, feisty, adventurous, and a bit reckless, proposes a reunion at the retreat with her best friends to get away from the chaos of her life with teenagers and the emotional aftermath of her postponed wedding. One of those friends, Tracy, has devoted her life to her children and her husband despite her excruciating boredom. But a long-held secret could cost her the most important friendships in her life.

Haunting the place is a ghost who, in life, dealt with tragedy by turning to prostitution which led to her murder over 100 years ago at the very place they all are staying.

What Happens in Montana explores friendship, betrayal, and forgiveness with blunt truth and witty insights. Together, these friends learn to navigate empty nests, infidelity, deception, and poltergeists. Most importantly, they learn their friendship is strong enough to get them through it all.

One of Audible's BEST readers!!!!

I'm usually a Historic Novel kind of reader but this book was recommended and I loved it (start to finish) from the very first sentence! The reader, Kathleen Godwin, had me captivated the entire time. I just loved her voice and delivery and she made the story so easy to follow and listen to. The book was good.... the narrator was great. I want to hear more from her.
Thanks Audible!

5 STARS


This is a women’s fiction book. It follows two different timelines. A modern one who has 4 friends reuniting at a health retreat for a reunion of their mommy and mr group 20 years later.
The retreat is haunted by a ghost or ghosts from long ago.
There are many secrets, betrayals, heartbreak and more. I could not stop listening to eat lunch. I hope to find more from this author.


The narration was done by Kathleen Godwin. She brought these characters to life.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Too long to get to the point

I struggled to finish the book. It did not keep my attention the story wandered all over. The narrator voice got annoying
