Great listening

Enjoyed another of her books. Great to listen when doing housework and in the car traveling.

Needs more storyline

It was good to listen to in order to past time doing chores. The mai voice was great and soothing. The other character voices sounded very fake and robotic. Not at all believable by culture or sex.

Loved it.

Nice twist at the end. I didn't see it coming. usually I figure it out the killer early but this one surprised me.

Wonderful team!

Lynn Cahoon is one of my favorite authors. Susan Boyce is one of my favorite narrators. Put the two together and you have a cozy mystery series read to by a voice you enjoy hearing!

Wonderfully entertaining

I loved this story. It was entertaining, kept me thinking, and captured my attention. Very well done.

What Happened To Ian

Nice, easy listen. I really liked the twist at the end. I enjoy that the relationship between Angie & Ian is more than sex. I missed Ian’s brogue, what happened there?

What Did the Title Have to do with the Story?

I enjoyed the book but I must have missed something in the beginning because I failed to see the connection between the title and the story. The victim was not killed by fried green tomatoes and the tomatoes had very little to do with the story except the ending. How were the green tomatoes a killer? Though I figured out one half of the mystery, I didn't figure out who was the murderer. I enjoyed the story and the progression to the murder revelation. Randye Kaye spoke too fast but I managed to work past that and enjoyed the first book. Though Susan Boyce's voice was not as lively as Randye Kaye's voice, Susan Boyce did well in the second book, lending to my listening enjoyment. I look forward to the next book.

Interesting title

OK - first of all I am from Boise, ID so I'm doubly loving this series. The locale is excellent and could be so many places around here but the story itself has a lot of twists and turns and is a surprise ending for me. Very good book and the reader was excellent!

Not a page turner but fun.

Slow, slow, slow! Yet FUN. Modern Day and wholesome Nancy Drew series. Liked Ian’s Scottish/Irish accent and missed it in this story.

Idaho Small Town Mystery, Food and Friends

The second in the Farm to Fork series finds Angie Turner trying to perfect her Nona's fried green tomato recipe for her restaurant, The County Seat, when her chef, Estebe asks her to take a tour of his cousin, Javier's farm. Finding the produce to be good, Angie agrees to buy from Javier, but then he is accused of murdering his girlfriend. The best parts of the story for me are the relationships of the folks in the small town, Angie and her friend, Felicia, Angie and her boyfriend, and especially the recipes and memories that she has of her Nona. I like that this is a clean series and not filled with explicit sex scenes or language. Great book and great resolution.
