The Frannie Shoemaker Campground Mysteries

De: Karen Musser Nortman

Narrado por: Rebecca Roberts

Bats and Bones is a B.R.A.G Medallion Honoree. Frannie and Larry Shoemaker are retirees who enjoy weekend camping with their friends in state parks in this new cozy mystery series. They anticipate the usual hiking, campfires, good food, and interesting side trips among the bluffs of beautiful Bat Cave State Park for the long Fourth of July weekend - until a dead body turns up. Confined in the campground and surrounded by strangers, Frannie is drawn into the investigation. Frannie's persistence and curiosity helps authorities sort through the possible suspects and motives, but almost ends her new sleuth career - and her life.

Campground adventure

I honestly thought this book was going to be about old bony people being loony as bats. Frannie is a great crime solving person. And that recipe about smashed potatoes and sausage gravy one more recipe to add my own camping adventure this year.

Fun, cozy mystery

This is the first book I've read by this author, and I'll certainly be looking forward to hearing more about Frannie and friends in upcoming stories. The narrator did a great job telling the story and modulating her voice to fit all the characters. We all know someone who is a busybody like Frannie. I'm surprised the police didn't lock her up! I received this book for free, in exchange for an honest review.

Enjoyable cozy mystery

This book was a quick, enjoyable cozy mystery. I found the characters interesting and would read more by Karen Nortman. This series promises to be a good light mystery, perfect for breaks between heavier reads. Rebecca Roberts does a fantastic job narrating. I enjoyed listening to her bring the characters and story to life.
