Killer in High Heels

De: Gemma Halliday

Narrado por: Caroline Shaffer

L.A. shoe designer Maddie Springer hasn't seen her father since he reportedly ran off to Las Vegas with a showgirl named Lola. So she's shocked when he leaves a desperate plea for help on her answering machine - ending in a loud bang. Gunshot? Car backfire? Never one to leave her curiosity unsatisfied, Maddie straps on her stilettos, and along with her trigger-happy best friend, makes tracks for Sin City in search of her MIA dad.

Maddie hits the jackpot, all right. She finds not only her dad, but also a handful of aging drag queens, an organized crime ring smuggling fake Prada pumps, and one relentless killer. Plus, it seems the LAPD's sexiest cop is doing a little Vegas moonlighting of his own.

In a town where odds are everything, Maddie bets it all on her ability to out-step a vicious murderer. She just hopes her gamble pays off...before her own luck runs out.

Fun Brain Candy

Fun to listen to when you want to tune out and let your brain relax and not think about anything serious. A little bit fluffy in content, but amusing nonetheless.

I LOVE SHOES TOO!

Awesome Light Funny Read

Funny, light, got some action, mystery, and romance. It is a perfect light mystery read that is easy to follow, pure fun, and good fashion.

Great mystery with shoes loving detective

I really enjoyed the storyline, the characters, the humorous descriptions and the great sense of humor the author brought to the story. The narrator was excellent at creating these distinct characters and propelled the story along at just the right pace. I will definitely check out another high heel mystery in the series!!!

Just plain fun

Such a fun book - nice to just get away and live the life of Madi

Hilarious!!!

Love this series! Characters are so much fun.
Vegas, Drag Queens, mobsters, murder, stun gun & sexy Detective Rameriz. No need to say more.

Entertaining cozy mystery and performance

This is the 2nd book in this cozy mystery series. I love the varied, interesting, fun characters, the humor, and the mystery and action. Sometimes the story seems to drag a bit and I actually prefer this book in written form rather than audible, even though the performance is very good. I will read more in this series, and I will probably buy the Audible versions also because they are at a great price. I will probably do a combination of some reading, some listening.

Just a little bit of fun

What did you like best about Killer in High Heels? What did you like least?

It was not really anything to get excited about. But if you've caught up on all of Evanovich, this will hold you over til her new one comes out.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

Not sure, it was just not too original

What three words best describe Caroline Shaffer’s performance?

It was ok

Did Killer in High Heels inspire you to do anything?

Nope

Love this series!

I travel a lot for my car, and sometimes music gets old. Audio books are the perfect solution and once I c I molested the first book, Spying in High Heels, I was hooked! This second installment was great as well. Now on to the third!
