Publisher's summary

Oboist Sara Baron agrees to cat-sit for a childhood friend, but instead of being greeted by a meowing fluff ball, she walks into a ransacked house and stumbles over her friend’s dead body.

Frantic, she runs next door and enlists the help of a mysterious stranger who knows more than he admits. His charm, not to mention his deep chestnut eyes, is balanced by his guardedness, unexplained absences, and seemingly nonexistent past. Is he helping her expose the murderer or covering his tracks?

Meanwhile, Sara battles a career-threatening affliction and helps keep the family music business afloat, all while looking for instrumental evidence to put the murderer behind bars.

Fun and not too crazy!

I thought this was a fun chill book to listen to! I listened to the whole of this on a trip I took across the weekend. It made the road trip soo much more bearable! The story has an interesting bunch of characters who all had their own unique personalities which I always enjoy! This story caught my EYE with its title. XD Naomi Rose-Mock did a wonderful job and will make sure to have a FULL listen-through a second time!

Good start to a new mystery series

This is the first in a promising new series. I listened to this book. I found it layered with interesting characters. Even though I felt the author was directing me towards one suspect, I did not bite. I also figured out the neighbor’s secret long before it was revealed.

I also, noticed that the author points out what I have learned through time that as some individual ages, their filter disappears on their comments.

I found dystonia an unusual disease and did further research which was not necessary for enjoying this book.

A great start to a great new series!

Sara plays the oboe back in San Francisco… Well when she’s employed she does. Now she finds her self back in our hometown ready to cat sit for a front alley. Her trip and isn’t going well though she first gets into a fender bender with an obnoxious good looking man, then she goes to visit her parents because she missed them and feels guilty after having to tell them she staying by Allison not at their home and then she goes to Alyssa’s ready to fall in bed and go to sleep, but unfortunately this is when she finds her friend dead on her bedroom floor. Her cell phone is dead, Eli‘s house phone doesn’t work so she’s forced to go next-door and get help and assistance from the neighbor. To her surprise and chagrin it’s the handsome obnoxious guy from the fender bender. After the cops leave and all of a sudden done she takes him up on his offer to stay at his home not only because she is very tired but because our phones are low. This is when the adventure begins. There is so much more to death but then with the help of her mom who works at the police department as a dispatcher and her new frenemy Travis she sets out to solve this crime. Unfortunately her new frenemy Travis sometimes looks more like a suspect then he does someone helping to solve this crime. Did Travis kill Eli or was it someone that no one saw coming. Oh I absolutely loved this book I love the authors wit this book at me laughing out loud and I loved it and highly recommend it if you love a good mystery then you’ll love this book. This is the first book in the new Siri‘s and I cannot wait for the second. Not to mention the narrator of this book is really freaking awesome I mean I love her so much! She did such a great job she gave no one a strange voice she read the book and a comfortable tone that set the case for the mystery I just thought she was awesome I wish I could remember her name but it’s the narrator you can look and see. Highly recommend this book so much!

Good narration of an interesting mystery

A really good mystery with lots of twist and turns with a touch of romance. The narration was also good. I really enjoyed it.

MS Seiner has a winner with this one!

Absolutely loved this audible book! The plot is well developed as are the characters. I am still a new Audible book "reader" and enjoyed listening over several days while doing chores. it helped make the time fly in a most entertaining way.
