A Colorful Scheme

Pen & Ink Series, Book 4

De: Krista Davis

Narrado por: Rebecca Mitchell

Coloring book creator and Washington, DC, bookstore owner Florrie Fox is attending the wedding of her wealthy boss and a famous romance author, who are taking their vows—for the second time—on the grounds of the gorgeous Maxwell mansion. But it soon becomes clear that the soothing vibe of coloring books is very different from the stress and backstabbing in some corners of the literary world.

Arthur Bedlingham, for example, barely makes a living despite the many awards he's won—and his chances for better sales haven't been helped by the vicious review he just got from another guest at the party. Then there's an ex-FBI agent whose popular thrillers are a magnet for female fans; a less-successful romance writer; and an ambitious waitress who's intent on a career in journalism.

When Arthur's assistant, an aspiring writer, is murdered during the festivities, Florrie realizes this is no color-by-numbers case, and she'll have to sort out the complicated secrets among this creative crowd of suspects . . .

a Fun series.

I enjoyed this series very much and binged through all 4recordings. It is a light,fun group of characters and stories.

Kept me guessing

Great characters, lots of unpredictable plot twists.
I love the whole series and the writers other books.

What a maze

A finely crafted story (as usual) going in several directions at once. I do hate when innocents are the casualties. It would be a nice break to have a mystery that didn't require deaths. Anyway, it did give a peak into the (fictional) lives of authors.

Pretty Good

Generally speaking this was an enjoyable story. I detested the fact that Florie let herself be questioned by the police without a lawyer, even after her cop boyfriend suggested it. I find that to be a bad idea. However, as a whole I enjoyed it. I will admit that it took some time to figure out what was going on and I appreciated that.

Great characters

Loved the characters and the way they all came together in the end. Great series,

Good book

I really enjoyed the book very glad Flory did not need her boyfriend constantly. Thank you

Okay

A Colorful Scheme has a well written plot but the characters are annoying. I might get the next book.

Absolutely Delightful Book

I loved all the characters and the storyline was absolutely Fantastic. It had me guessing until the end. This series draws you into the life of Florry Fox and her Family and friends. This cozy mystery series is a winner and I can’t wait for the next book. Someday we will find an answer into what happened to Professor Maxwell and Jackie’s daughter Caroline , who disappeared from a birthday party many years ago? This cozy mystery series is one of my Favorites! Can’t wait for the next book to come out!!!!!!

Another score!

intriguing. surprising conclusion. likeable characters. I want more.
A good way to spend several hours.

Just Meh

This had been one of my favorite series. I waited so long between books due the third in the series. I was suprised and very excited to see this fourth installment but this was hard to be interested in. It did get better but don't judge the series by this book. I do still enjoy these characters and would read another in the series.
