A Colorful Scheme

Pen & Ink Series, Book 4

De: Krista Davis

Narrado por: Rebecca Mitchell

Coloring book creator and Washington, DC, bookstore owner Florrie Fox is attending the wedding of her wealthy boss and a famous romance author, who are taking their vows—for the second time—on the grounds of the gorgeous Maxwell mansion. But it soon becomes clear that the soothing vibe of coloring books is very different from the stress and backstabbing in some corners of the literary world.

Arthur Bedlingham, for example, barely makes a living despite the many awards he's won—and his chances for better sales haven't been helped by the vicious review he just got from another guest at the party. Then there's an ex-FBI agent whose popular thrillers are a magnet for female fans; a less-successful romance writer; and an ambitious waitress who's intent on a career in journalism.

When Arthur's assistant, an aspiring writer, is murdered during the festivities, Florrie realizes this is no color-by-numbers case, and she'll have to sort out the complicated secrets among this creative crowd of suspects . . .

a Fun series.

I enjoyed this series very much and binged through all 4recordings. It is a light,fun group of characters and stories.

Kept me guessing

Great characters, lots of unpredictable plot twists.
I love the whole series and the writers other books.

What a maze

A finely crafted story (as usual) going in several directions at once. I do hate when innocents are the casualties. It would be a nice break to have a mystery that didn't require deaths. Anyway, it did give a peak into the (fictional) lives of authors.

Pretty Good

Generally speaking this was an enjoyable story. I detested the fact that Florie let herself be questioned by the police without a lawyer, even after her cop boyfriend suggested it. I find that to be a bad idea. However, as a whole I enjoyed it. I will admit that it took some time to figure out what was going on and I appreciated that.

Great characters

Loved the characters and the way they all came together in the end. Great series,
