Detour

The Mac 'n' Ivy Mysteries, Book 2

De: Lorena McCourtney

Narrado por: Melinda Cumming, Rob Vlock

What follows a wedding? A honeymoon, of course. The beginning of a happily-ever-after future in which Ivy and Mac will travel the country in their motorhome searching for the perfect place to settle down and live. No more dead bodies. No more murders.

Instead, here they are on a detour to an old dinosaur park, and Ivy is up to her possum-gray hair in ghost goats, deteriorating dinosaurs, and… what else? A dead body, of course.

Ivy and Mac vow non-involvement, no searching for clues or killers this time, but it’s a vow difficult to maintain when they seem to be at the top of the list of suspects. There’s a gun with Mac’s initials scratched into it, a hint of dastardly doings in the past, an exploding Porsche, and a covert climb over a chain link fence into the dinosaur’s domain.

Is Ivy in danger from the dinosaurs? Or is it more a case of watch out, dinosaurs—here comes Ivy!

Ivy & Mack are long time favorites

Another nice cozy murder mystery from the Ivy Malone collection. Enjoyed the books when they first came out in Kindle version and now in audio. I use earbuds and listen to audiobooks to fall asleep to and this series worked well for that with the readers slow voices.

My main constructive feedback is for the narrators/publisher to go back (especially to chapter 16) and fix all the glitches and repeats. It appears that changes were spliced in but the original mistakes were left too, which isn't very professional sounding.
