De: Christa Nardi

Narrado por: Myriam Berger

A small town, a murder, a fraternity, and a tangled web of people, politics, and lies.

When Senator Marcus Thornton is killed at an engagement party in his hometown, amateur sleuth Sheridan Hendley is drawn into the investigation alongside her detective husband. With a reputation for flip-flopping on political issues, Thornton's death sparks suspicion. Broken promises and hidden agendas lead to dangerous undercurrents.

As Sheridan delves deeper into the case, she uncovers a network of social connections and a history of infidelity that may have played a role in Thornton’s murder. But with so many suspects and conflicting motives, can she piece together the truth? Is the killer’s motive political or personal? Or both?

Fans of cozy mysteries will be hooked by this nail-biting whodunit.

distracting narration

The strange inflections in the narration were so distracting I could barely follow the story.

Ok story irritating narrator

Story was ok. Not as good as other books in this series. Had a hard time finishing the book due to irritating narrator voice.

narrator lets the story down

This is a well-written story, as are all of the Cold Creek College amd Sheridan Handley books, and well worth a read!
The trouble lies in the audiobook narrator. Speech impediments are not suitable for enjoyable listening, and this reader has a serious case of "mush mouth", lisping, and mispronunciation. I'd almost rather listen to Virtual Voice!

An Amateur Super Sleuth

I was as entertained by this story as much as the others in the series. I've admired Sheridan's sleuthing ability since the first book. I thought this story showcased the development of Sheridan's skills as she helped her husband with this case. I was pleased that this tale accented Sheridan's ability as a psychologist also. I thought Myriam Berger's narration was fine, but at times her voice lacked expressiveness. I was given a copy of the audiobook. I volunteered, without financial gain, to post this review which reflected my honest opinions regarding this audiobook.

A Great “Who Done It” With Heart!

With Maddie off to college, things should be settling down for Sheridan … shouldn’t they? When a night out is interrupted by a call that a body’s been found at Birchwood Country Club … let’s just say not so much for the setting down … especially when the body belongs to a prominent senator! The suspects line forms to the right and Sheridan will need all her wits if she’s to avoid being the ne’er-do-well’s next victim! Meticulously plotted, smooth flowing, and filled with probable suspects, adorable pups. REALISTIC, fully drawn, beautifully developed characters AND heartfelt emotion, “Promises and Politics, Another Murder” is a fantastic addition to one of my favorite series’ and I LOVED it’. Did I guess the do’er? Nope, but when all was said and done, it made perfect, beautiful sense! Five fabulously entertained fantastic stars! Sheridan for the win!
