To Cache a Killer

The Frannie Shoemaker Campground Mysteries, Book 5

De: Karen Musser Nortman

Narrado por: Michelle Babb

Geocaching isn't supposed to be about finding dead bodies. But when retiree Frannie Shoemaker goes camping, standard definitions don't apply. A weekend in a beautiful state park in Iowa buzzes with fund-raising events, a search for ninja turtles, a bevy of suspects, and lots of great food. But are the campers in the wrong place at the wrong time once too often?

Book 5

Book 5 had plenty of suspects and twists and turns. It was also great to catch up with the camping gang . So far I had no experience with or much knowledge of geocaching but it was interesting to learn about it and was a nice theme for the mystery

Such an interesting activity

I'd like to start by saying I had no idea what geo caching was. I've always loved scavenger hunts so this made the story even better! I was surprised that Frannie didn't find the body this time, who knew? As always I love how this narrator narrates her books. It's like I'm really there in the story. The author has written a great series always with, fun friends and family, great side characters, and murder mystery. My favorite character has always been Frannie, she reminds me a lot of myself. I've always loved camping so this has always been an added bonus for me to these stories. I really loved how the teenage mutant ninja turtles got involved in this story. Wanna know how, you'll just have to listen. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Another cozy camping mystery

To Cache a Killer by Karen Musser Nortman is fifth in the Frannie Shoemaker mysteries. Another campground...another murder. Frannie once again finds herself smack in the middle of a murder investigation. Frannie and her former policeman husband end up being suspects themselves Will they be able to get out of this one? Lots of fun and a good cozy mystery. Geo-caching, retirement scams, old grudges, threats, and shootings--lots to keep the reader's interest.With some twists and turns to the plot, the author keeps you guessing to the end as to the culprit. To Cache a Killer is a fun book to read (or listen to as this reviewer did). The narrator, Michelle Babb, does a nice job of giving characters their unique voice, making for an enjoyable listening experience. I've enjoyed this series and hope there are more books to come.

Engaging cozy mystery.

In this book, Frannie and her friends are playing geocaching around the camping area, when they suddenly found a body in the woods. The last entry in the cache close to the body might have an important clue. Their search for geocaches could be decisive in this murder mystery.

As I played geocaching several times in my life, I could relate to Frannie and her friends in this adventure. At first, the book is a bit slow, but soon enough there are enough suspects to keep me interested and guessing until the end. The several events that happened made the story quite interesting and engaging. I remember that I found the previous two books in this series a bit predictable, but this one felt more complex and I found it more appealing.

Michelle Babb did a wonderful job, as always, narrating this book and bringing the characters to life, providing each one with a unique style so that it is very easy to follow dialogs and know who is talking at all times. Babb also knows how to transmit the characters’ emotions, creating the illusion of being listening to real people.

This is a fun and light series, ideal for a lazy Sunday afternoon. I would recommend it to anyone into cozy mysteries.

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

Fun mystery!

I love this series and this one is no exception. Great story and narration. I received a free copy and left my honest review

To Cache a Killer

I learned something new about geo caches in this book and it sounds like something fun to do in real life, without the dead body thing. This book was so fun to listen to with these characters that always seemed to get sucked into everything.

Fun Listen!

I love this series featuring Frannie and Larry Shoemaker. Each book is a standalone listen featuring retires that encounter something while camping. I love the imagery in this book along with the realistic characters. Michelle Babb did an excellent performance with her various characters. I would categorize this book as a clean cozy mystery and well worth listening to. I received this complementary review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily written this review. I would definitely listen to more books by this author and narrator.

This is one of my favorite cozy mystery series.

This is a fun RV/camping mystery that takes place at an Iowa state park. It features geocaching and I was able to learn a lot about that subject. The mystery kept me guessing. This is one of my favorite cozy mystery series.

Geocaching is such fun!

This was such a fun book in the series! I had never heard of Geocaching before, so it was neat to learn about it and then see the whole plot line build on it. I enjoyed seeing Frannie & the gang doing a new activity & getting involved with a local crime that occurs right as the town is about to have a big event. The narration is such fun & I just love Frannie & her spunk so much!

Loved

I loved the geocaching aspect tied into this crime. Very interesting. I love that I’m slowly learning more about the side characters and their personalities. I also love that you write older characters that I can relate to.
