All Saints' Secrets

Saints, Volume 2

De: Nicole Loughan

Narrado por: Suzy Lexington

"After her death the kids used to say her ghost haunted the plantation."

The bayou holds many secrets. One of them is what really happened to Lisette, a beautiful Creole teenager who died on the last day of school. Everybody in Fanchon's reclusive bayou parish knows Lisette died in a boating accident, but when the police take a closer look, they unearth the dead girl and find a surprise in her grave.

All Saints' Secrets is the sequel to To Murder a Saint. It is highly recommended that the Saint books be listened to in order.

Intriguing mystery

If you could sum up All Saints' Secrets in three words, what would they be?

Contained some surprises.

What did you like best about this story?

It was an easy listen. The narrator was nice to listen to. The story was not too predictable, but easy to follow.

Have you listened to any of Suzy Lexington’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This is the first Suzy Lexington reading I have heard.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Down in the swamps . . .

As many twists and turns as a bayou! Thrill ride!

What did you love best about All Saints' Secrets?

I loved Fanchon, her pluck, spirit, common sense and determination. She's level headed and smart.

What was one of the most memorable moments of All Saints' Secrets?

Oh DEFINITELY the ending! Holy cow it was exciting!

What does Suzy Lexington bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She is absolutely perfect doing the characters, she brought Fanchon to life, and I always knew which character was speaking.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Yes, I can't say what it is because it would be a spoiler, but when I found out what had really happened I was practically in tears.

Any additional comments?

I purchased the Kindle version of this book and I was given the audio version to review. I really like using Whispersynch to listen and read along.

Southern Gothic Mystery

Second book in the Saints Mystery series takes place mostly in New Orleans as Fanchon recovers from the injuries suffered at the hands of the killer in book 1. These injuries include a severely broken leg which does not allow the MC to bear weight although it is casted.

This short volume was a serviceable mystery but lacked much of the humor from the first book. I never imagined the strange twist at the end concerning the identity of main characters. The amount of traveling the MC managed with a severely broken leg was incredible but the phrase that drew me up short was at the end where the MC sits crosslegged before her dead BF's crypt. I totally can't see it with the cast needed for her injury.


The narrator did a very good, but not outstanding, job. However, I am interested enough in the series to want to read the next one. Currently it is not available on Audible so I may wait a few months and borrow through Kindle Unlimited. I bought the Kindle book and received the Audible version in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

A fine read for a dreary afternoon

Nice length for a dreary afternoon. Intriguing tale of convoluted events, NYPD, NOPD, and entangled pasts. Historical data is unreliable but just fine for plot device if you don't try to take it as gospel--this is FICTION, folks. Excellent mood-setting and character development in a very enjoyable and riveting tale. Personally, I had no problem fronting this book and enjoying it without being aware that it is a *Book 2*.
