Thirty-year-old society matron Lola Woodby has survived her loveless marriage with an unholy mixture of highballs, detective novels, and chocolate layer cake until her husband dies suddenly, leaving her his fortune, or so Lola thinks. As it turns out, all she inherits from Alfie is a big pile of debt. Pretty soon Lola and her stalwart Swedish cook, Berta, are reduced to hiding out in the secret love nest Alfie kept in New York City. But when rent comes due, Lola and Berta have no choice but to accept an offer made by one of Alfie's girls on the side at his funeral: In exchange for a handsome sum of money, the girl wants Lola to retrieve a mysterious reel of film for her. It sounds like an easy enough way to earn the rent money. But Lola and Berta realize they're in way over their heads when, before they can retrieve it, the man currently in possession of the film reel is murdered, and the reel disappears. On a quest to retrieve the reel and solve the murder before the killer comes after them next, Lola and Berta find themselves navigating one wacky situation after another in high style and low company. Charming, witty, often laugh-out-loud funny, Maia Chance's Come Hell or Highball introduces a sparkling new voice in crime fiction.

The readers voice was very good overall but occasionally her addition of accents wasn’t amazing hence the 4 stars but frankly she’s more of a 4.5 as it was minor.
Humorous mystery with some romance as a bonus

otherwise the writing is quite good. so if you don't find it as depressing as I do go ahead and read it.
no not another one

Supporting characters are entertaining but our main character is frustratingly incompetent and the story just proceeds around her. Cozy mysteries are about an unusual sleuth using their particular expertise to solve a murder. Lola’s talent appears to be continually doing the wrong thing, getting caught and suffering no consequences. Only listen if you have a high tolerance for coincidence.
Good premise, mediocre execution
