He was boring and I think one of the reasons that the series was moving slow. I look forward to the next book.

This is a fun, witty and interesting series filled with entertaining characters and a smidgen of drama. As always Skye gets involved personally with ..Show More »a mystery in her small town. There is a lot going on- the missing cat, the murder of her handyman and her relationships with two men. All of the storylines are nicely tied together and sorted by the end of the book. I do have a couple of problems with the plot. 1. Simon's refusal to talk to Skye about what happened while he was on vacation and 2. Giving away a large sum of money in this economy when Skye can barely pay for the repairs on her house. I found both to be unrealistic but I won't give anymore spoilers on that. I will say that Simon has got to be the most arrogant man in town and Skye is better off without him. This is a good read. I already bought the next book.

This latest installment of the continuing saga of Skye and Scumble River is a good listen, but definitely not her best work.

The plot was rat..Show More »her off-the-wall but then, it's organizing character, Bunny, is a rather off-the-wall character so it works. I had a hard time believing the villain was as blatantly irksome as she is portrayed. It just didn't ring true to me.

The narrator, as usual, was great! Great voices and the sardonic humor of Ms. Swanson was appropriate.

Overall, I enjoyed the book. But, I've enjoyed the other Swanson books a bit more. It did not put me off the series and I'll listen to her next installment. I'm not sure it was worth an entire credit though.... but, if it were on a 4.95 sale, yes.
