A Fatal Family Feast

A Farm-to-Fork Mystery, Book 6

De: Lynn Cahoon

Narrado por: Susan Boyce

Angie Turner's Idaho restaurant, the County Seat, is the perfect site for a picturesque country wedding, but the party planning skids to a halt when the groom-to-be is implicated in a murder investigation....

When Angie's best friend and business partner, Felicia Williams, picks the County Seat to host her upcoming nuptials, Angie wants it to feel like a family affair - especially since Felicia is set to marry the farm-to-fork restaurant's talented sous chef, Estebe Blackstone. Unfortunately, the bride's actual family is far less enthusiastic about the union. They're pulling out all the stops to cancel the couple's wedding, even arranging for a surprise visit from Felicia's ex-fiance (and her father's current lackey). But when her ex is killed days before the ceremony and Estebe is framed for the crime, Angie and the County Seat crew must scramble to solve the murder and save the wedding....

Good story but sad the author perpetrated lazy thinking around women and higher education.

Overall this was a good story, but I thought it was sad that the author perpetuated the lies we are told about women earning less than men, and that college is the only way to a successful future. Women overall earn less because they work less hours on average than men, they have children and take time away from their careers to have children and lastly women unlike men fail to negotiate their salary. If women went into an interview, and when offered the job; negotiated the salary they believe they deserve; based on their skills, and experience they would make more money. You cannot blame men for knowing their value and being expected to be paid for it. Next, the lie that a college education equals a better living. I think it’s easy to see in our current society that we are bailing out students who can’t get good jobs; that will pay their student loans. But the people working in the trades are making six figures. Plumbers make good money and there is no shame in working hard and working with your hands. The skills gap is enormous in this country because for too many years we have perpetuated the lie that a college education is the only way forward and people in the trades are less. Well I would say that if people correct their thinking and allow young people the option of trades or college you would shrink the skills gap and have happier people. There is no shame in working with your hands. I’m sure when your house floods from a backed up line you appreciate that person who became a plumber and the person who became a carpenter. There is good money in those jobs. Stop looking down at the hard working men and women and teach your kids that they can be proud of any job that interests them and uses their skills. Stop perpetuating the propaganda of the elite. If you want more facts on this google Thomas Sowell wage gap myths and Mike Rowe skills gap. You will find some enlightening reading.

Not often does this happen

Such an engaging book. Cried not once but twice. I never do that but was so entranced and caught up in the book. This author is amazing. Can’t wait for book 7. Guess I will have to buy on Kindle!

Entertaining cozy mystery

Great cozy mystery. Both the author Lyn Cahoon and the narrator Susan Boyce kept me invested from the first chapter. With a number of twists and turns and a result I didn’t see coming, I was hooked.

The characters are easy to relate to and you quickly become invested in their story. Cannot wait to read and or listen to more from this author.
