About this listen
A Villa in Sicily: Orange Groves and Vengeance is book five in a charming new cozy mystery series by best-selling author Fiona Grace, author of Murder in the Manor, a number-one best seller with over 100 five-star reviews (and a free download)!
Audrey Smart, 34, has made a major life change, walking away from her life as a vet (and from a string of failed romances) and moving to Sicily to buy a one-dollar home - and embark on a mandatory renovation she knows nothing about. She finds herself busy running the town’s new shelter, while also renovating her own problematic home - and dating again.
When Audrey gets a call to find an injured stray in an orange grove at an old estate, the last thing she expects to find is love. The estate owner is charming, handsome - and like no one she’s met before. Might he be a Mafioso?
It seems like the surprises never end, until she finds one more thing on her way out of the grove: a dead body.
A laugh-out-loud cozy packed with mystery, intrigue, renovation, animals, food, wine - and of course, love - A Villa in Sicily will capture your heart and keep you glued to the very last word.
Book Six in the series, Cannoli and a Casualty - is now also available!

England, 1920. Eleanor Swift has spent the last few years travelling the world: taking tea in China, tasting alligators in Peru, escaping bandits in Persia and she has just arrived in England after a chaotic 45-day flight from South Africa. Chipstone is about the sleepiest town you could have the misfortune to meet. But then, from the edge of a quarry, through the driving rain, Eleanor is shocked to see a man shot and killed in the distance. Before she can climb down to the spot, the villain is gone and the body has vanished.

But after ten years and a little friendly cajoling from the owner (a fresh pot of Jamaican Blue Mountain was all it took), she's back to the grind. With a sprawling rent-free apartment directly above the Village Blend, her cat Java by her side, and plenty of coffeehouse redecorating ideas, Clare is thrilled to return to work. Until she discovers the assistant manager unconscious in the back of the store, coffee grounds strewn everywhere.
