Narrado por: Coleen Marlo

Between volunteering for the annual pumpkin festival and coaching her girls to the state soccer finals, high school teacher TJ Jensen finds her good friend Zachary Collins dead in his favorite chair. When the handsome new deputy closes the case without so much as a "why" or "how", TJ turns her attention from chili cook-offs and pumpkin carving to complex puzzles, prophetic riddles, and a decades-old secret she seems destined to unravel.

Enjoyable pumpkins

A really good read! So nice that such a good plot line was not
Ruined by bad language

Different

small-town, teaching, murder, family-dynamics, friendship, law-enforcement

The first mystery was to determine if it was murder, followed by whodunit. The second mystery involved some interesting guests to the Lodge and the apparent pretext bringing them there. Add in a very busy life, mourning a good friend, and family madness and there you have it.
The narrator had an interesting presentation.

it was a good story it flowed nicely and kept me engaged

The narrator was ok but some of the voices she did were just strange

Nice cozy mystery

This was exactly what you expect from a cozy mystery. I loved the setting. My only issue was that the main character is supposed to be in her 20s, but the narrator sounds like an old lady.

Sweet and clean

While I feel the narrator could do a bit more animation with her voice, overall this is good for lighthearted and cozy read.
