Publisher's summary

I had plans, all right.

The 3 Gs: grad school. Great job. Good, orderly life.

Do you see a side helping of private investigating anywhere on that menu? I don't think so.

So, how in the world did I find myself plunging headfirst into the dark depths of an underhanded, manipulative corporate scandal - risking life and career alike - when I should have been focused on my impending graduation and precisely planned future?

Only one answer could explain it, really: Sloan McKenzie.

Impulse Spy is an exciting mystery adventure driven by a beautiful, mysterious stranger who might be nothing but trouble. Perfect for long-time cozy listeners as well as YA and new adult listeners looking for a little amateur sleuth intrigue in their lives. The super-hot sidekicks are just an added bonus!

A twisting mystery full of fun

"Impulse Spy" was a delightfully fun, fast-paced read, perfect for audiobook listening. Readers meet Quinn, an audiology fellow (a unique role/job in the cozy mystery world) at a bookstore where she runs into a woman who tickles her mystery-loving interest. Before Quinn knows it, clues are being left for her and her love of a good thriller prompts her to follow. When she fears she's stumbled into some sort of spy-ring, Quinn learns her mystery woman is actually a private investigator who wants her help on a case. What unfolds is a mystery that morphs into something more at every turn!

Quinn is a delightful MC - full of spunk and curiosity, I readily believed she would put it all on the line to solve a mystery. Her relationship with Sloan, her newfound PI friend, is wonderful to witness as it develops. They have great chemistry, and I look forward to seeing their relationship grow. I liked that their partnership is the central focus for this book -- the author lays the groundwork for a romance for Quinn, but I thought Sloan and Quinn's relationship really stood out and I'm glad there wasn't another love interest vying for Quinn's attention.

Readers of Jana DeLeon's Miss Fortune mysteries would really like this book series I believe. With Sloan's background as a PI, it's great to just dive into a mystery with all the cool gadgets and contacts a PI has at their disposal. Rebecca Woods's narration is also very well done. Her range in character voices makes this audiobook come alive and I listened to it in just two sittings (I am a double-speed listener, and her narration works flawlessly with that setting).

A wonderful debut! I received a free copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review, and after listening, I would definitely read more from this author. This makes for the perfect light mystery read!
