Murder at the Blueberry Festival

A Beacon Bakeshop Mystery, Book 3

De: Darci Hannah

Narrado por: Amy Melissa Bentley

Living in a lighthouse with her dog, Lindsey Bakewell is lulled to sleep at night by the sound of Lake Michigan's waves—and gets up at the crack of dawn to start the day at her bakery cafe. But someone in Beacon Harbor is about to rock the boat with murder . . .

After a career on Wall Street, Lindsey is making a different kind of dough in a pretty lakeside village, and the upcoming blueberry festival—including the pie-eating contest her bakery is hosting—is the highlight of the summer. But soon Beacon Harbor runs into a patch of trouble.

A local real estate agent gets pranked. A parade float gets pelted with water balloons. It's all laughed off until the stunts start escalating—and looking more like sabotage. As the event turns into a debacle complete with rampaging goats, Lindsey's sweetheart, a former SEAL, starts investigating. But the juicy mystery takes a bitter turn when a man—dressed up as a Viking—is found dead in a boat, and it's no longer mischief but murder . . .

Another great Listen for the Beacon Bakeshop Mystery Series!

Gosh I LOVE this series! It got me craving blueberries like there was no tomorrow! So much so I started to make my own blueberry iced lattes! Yum! And Summer is just around the corner to enjoy them as well!!! The ending definitely has a very sad twist to it even though I had my suspicions on who it was! This was another excellent book and I’m really looking forward diving into the next book in the series! 🎃 Happy “Halloween!” 😜

Murder at the Blueberry Festival

I'm intrigued to listen to the other books in the series. I found this book 1st. This is a nice cozy mystery.

Fast becoming my favorite cozy series.

With each new release Darci Hannah just gets better and better.
The charming setting, quirky small town characters, great recipes and a compelling murder made me look forward to my morning commute and after work dog walks (This is when I usually listen to audio books).

Unlike other cozy mysteries Darci Hannah's protagonists (all in their early 30's) act their age and not like a geriatric ward . There is even a hint of sex. .I love the relationship between Lindsey and Rory, And I am so Glad Kennedy has decided to split her time between Beacon Harbor and Manhattan.!

Can't wait for the next installment!

Interesting plot line

Good book overall. Lots of quirky and fun characters. Some parts were a bit drawn out but others moved quickly. I am motivated to read another in the series.

Characters recipe

I enjoyed every minute of this mystery and all the characters in it. Also the recipes in the expressions of people as they talked.

Blueberries, Lighthouses and…

Stumbled upon this author while at a book store. Darci draws you into her story, and wished you could visit this quaint little town and stop by the local bakery.

Great story

Great cozy mystery. Both the author and the narrator 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.

Loved It!!!

I love this series! The characters are interesting and so is the story. I look forward to the next book.

comedy and poignancy

A series of pranks unfold at the Annual Blueberry Festival day 1 and 2 and when it looks like she’s the next one up, Lindsey & crew actively look for the perpetrators. However, early in the morning Lindsey & Rory are awakened by a goat loudly bleating. But she’s in a Viking boat, on the lake, drifting along the coast. Welly, Lindsey & Rory tow the boat, rescue the goat & find a body. Lindsey is convinced that the body is related to the pranks.
I was surprised, and pleased, by the poignancy of this story after the campiness of the previous one. No complaints on either.
Ms Bentley: There’s no bra in Bavarian; and the word is ‘proving’ harder than it looked, not providing. Yes, there’s room for improvement but it’s decent overall.

Intriguing & wholesome storytelling❣️

Wasn’t liking the constant repeat of murder victims name & of other characters the reader has come to know a good way into the book.
