A Fool's Journey

A Marketville Mystery

De: Judy Penz Sheluk

Narrado por: Karen Satter

In March 2000, 20-year-old Brandon Colbeck left home to find himself on a self-proclaimed “fool’s journey.” No one — not friends or family — have seen or heard from him since, until a phone call from a man claiming to be Brandon brings the case back to the forefront. Calamity (Callie) Barnstable and her team at Past & Present Investigations have been hired to find out what happened to Brandon and where he might be.

As Callie follows a trail of buried secrets and decades-old deceptions, only one thing is certain: Whatever the outcome, there is no such thing as closure.

Gone but Not Forgotten

As a requirement of her Grandmother's will, Callie takes on a missing person's case that takes her from Barrie to Toronto uncovering family secrets in unexpected cases.
Well written and as impeccably researched as all of Judy Penz Sheluk's books, this one is a roller coaster ride that explores the dynamics of dysfunctional families and the heartbreak of not knowing what ever happened to a missing family member.
A cozy mystery that's not quite so cozy, this was a thoroughly enjoyable read, compassionately and expertly read by Karen Satter.

Callie figures it out again!

Callie is roped into another investigation as part of an agreement in her late grandmothers estate. She and her friends at Past and Present investigate the disappearance of a young man from over a decade ago. She comes across many loose ends and several new mysteries arise to which she begins her own side investigation. I really enjoy this series, they are unique and clever mysteries that keep you guessing. The only criticism I have is that there is a new narrator for every book. It would be nice if they would just stick with one as a narrator is what brings the story and characters to life. This narrator was good, but I did prefer the previous books narrator better. Overall will listen again and continue with the series. I received a free review copy of this book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

A Fool's Journey

This was a very good book.Calamity is in for another inheritance,and another mystery.Through twists and turns we see one family and their dysfuntion along with the sadness it brings. Karen Satter was a fine narrator.I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Well crafted

The third Marketville Mystery book continues the interesting and well written story of Callie, owner of Past & Present. This time, she has been asked to look into the disappearance of Brandon, grandson of Callie's great-grandmother's friend at the nursing home.  Judy Penz Sheluk is her usual detail oriented self in developing a plot full of tarot cards, tattoos and family secrets.  I'm enjoying the well crafted work.

There was a different narrator for this book and at first I wasn't sure I liked her. Only because I was used the previous narrator, but by the end of the book I had forgotten the difference in the voice, and she did quite a good job.

A well-written blend of fact & fiction

A Fool’s Journey (Marketville Mystery #3), my fourth enjoyable mystery read from author Judy Penz Sheluk. Well-written read with interesting characters. 7-hours 4-minutes of enjoyment. No spoilers here, buy the book, read & review the book. I was given an Audible copy of this after reading & reviewing the first 2 books in her Marketville Mystery series. Now I'm voluntarily reading & reviewing this. Karen Satter’s narration adds to the book's enjoyment. I look forward to reading more from this author. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).
