Publisher's summary

Even the closest families have secrets hidden away.

Bestselling novelist Sara Medlar is skilled at sharing stories about other people, but she hoped the truth about her own family would never surface. Her home in Lachlan, Florida, is her refuge and she loves having her niece Kate and dear friend Jack Wyatt together under her roof. The Medlar Three, as they are known around town, have sworn off getting involved in any more murder investigations.

When the sheriff unexpectedly leaves on vacation, Jack is surprised to find himself appointed as deputy. So when Kate stumbles upon a dead body while visiting a friend, the Medlar Three are back in the sleuthing game. Kate also has a charming new real estate client with a mysterious past. He seems to be followed by trouble and that makes Sara and Jack uneasy.

It doesn’t take long to discover that the murder and the new man in town are somehow related—the question is how. When the stranger’s true identity is revealed, Sara realizes her carefully crafted story is about to unravel and she fears she’ll lose Kate and Jack forever. But she desperately hopes that love and honesty will win out over years of lies and deceit. And besides, family is family—even if you sometimes want to kill them.

NEVER A DISAPPOINTMENT

I loved this whole series so far. Jude keeps things flowing in her stories. And she kept this story interesting. Had to keep listening until the end.

I struggled with this one

this was an overall enjoyable book, and I liked that we finally feel some sense of resolution in parts of Kate's story. but I struggled with the rapid drama and quick changes and the multiple shock factor surprises. but the characters are lovable

Thoughts on this book

I really love Jude Deveraux 's character. development and find her books entertaining. I have enjoyed the Medlar Mysteries. I did find some things in the story line confusing. I am hoping there are more in the series, since I don't feel the Kate and Jack storyline has been resolved as I think it should.

Delightfully Relative

When it comes to character development and delightful story lines, Jude Deveraux always brings pleasure. Thank you for another tale that delivers adventure and plot twists in a way that brings people closer together rather than over sexualize them or undermining their sense of self. Looking forward to whatever comes next.

I have one problem!

Again this Medlar series book kept me intrigued and I went through it too fast. Hence my 1 problem… The Witt in these books makes me laugh out loud at times.. I so hope there is another one in the works.. the reader is easy to listen too.. No long pauses or annoying swallows in mid sentence.. I have listened to several series of books and this is in my top 5..

Loved it!

It is the third in the series and as entertaining as the first two were. I’m in hopes that there will be more. Love the characters. Mystery, comedy and a hint of a love story all in one.
