The murderer must be a member of the family who own the castle or one of the staff. No one can get into the castle or leave until they discover who that is.

pass on the holiday

What a holiday. I think I'd rather stay home. It made my blood boil how the killer rationalized their moves and actions. I was disgusted with the killer. Selfish and heartless! I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a great job bringing it to life. Very emotional.

The guests are in charge now!

This is one of my favorites! I loved having all the main characters together again.
Isolated in a castle, a murder, a pregnant woman about to give birth, secrets, what more could you want?
Peggy is such a no nonsense person and knows how to take charge and does not hold back- I still think she’s my favorite person.
The family that the story revolves around is quite interesting and any one of them could have been the murderer but which one did it?
Kept me guessing till the end.
I enjoyed Lee Beddow’s performance as usual!

An exciting and new-to-me author and series

I had this on my wish and kept adding, removing, or skipping. So happy I finally purchased this book. Though it's part of a series this book is clever and immediately captivating and humorous... I was still able to enjoy it without the back story. Of course, now I want all the previous books and I am delighted the same skilled narrator reads them all.

Deadly holiday

This was a wonderful book. The idea of Meredith and Hodge on holiday is a joke in any stretch of the imagination. The action, angst, and mayhem of this book in the series is alternately energizing and humorous. The fun part of this adventure is the increase in smiles and giggles I experienced while listening the masterful way the Lee Beddow once again brings MK Turner's talent to life. When isolated Meredith and his crew manage to piece together a messy crime and all its characters in a twisted way that kept me guessing from the onset. As always I am excited to see the next book but more importantly will Meredith finally follow through with his declaration. No spoiler read to see what I am referring to.

A real poser!

Just when you thought you solved the mystery, another twist is revealed!

Lee Beddow did a great job narrating.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Excellent Series

Love the further character development of Meredith's "family" and always happy to have Peggy more involved. She is a hoot and never fails to make me laugh out loud. Kept me guessing until the end as to who the killer was. I realize now that I read the last two books out of order, but it made no difference. As always, excellent narration by Lee Beddow.
