thyme of death ***

loved listening to this book great narration and the characters were like real people on a real town

Easy, good, light read

Even if I early on figured out who the murderer was. At least she didn’t bring in any surprise figure in the end to be the murderer. Many authors do that and it is so exasperating.

Excellent Story

As usual…this author has written another wonderful, very descriptive story of bad authors, kind animal lovers, and money hungry women. It was a delightful evening listening to this story. Looking forward to the next book in series.

excellent writing and narration

I love this author. Her wit, color, and humor stand out in all of her characters. She is a treasure. This series is the third series I've read.

Excellent story and excellent narrator

Loved revisiting the excellent book via audible. I’m so happy to have listened to it to get reacquainted with the beginning of China and Ruby, etc.

Thyme of Death

Keep me guessing. Love the deception of thing and characters and landscape as the story develops.

Not for me because of sex obscenity

The obscenity descriptions are not my thing so if I could I would send the book back for a refund. Also too many books have a theme of making women victims either from their childhood or their husbands. Need some new material.
