Losers Club

A Murder Mystery (Losers Club, Book 1)

De: Yvonne Vincent

Narrado por: Angela Ness

There's a murderer on the loose on a storm swept island cut off from the Scottish mainland. It's down to Losers Club, a quirky weight loss group led by the intrepid Penny Moon, to catch the culprit.

When Old Archie the postman is shot and ends up in Mrs Hubbard's ice cream freezer, the whole island is aghast. Especially Mr Hubbard, who objects strongly to having to move all the ice lollies into the other freezer. Newly divorced and desperate to make a life for herself and her teenage children, Penny Moon arrives on Vik just in the nick of time, before the island is cut off by a storm. Her weight loss business doesn't have the best of starts, when a series of blunders leads to it being called Losers Club. However, it does have the best of people—a decent, disparate bunch who decide that, with the police unlikely to arrive any time soon and a murderer on the loose, it is down to Losers Club to investigate. As they dig deeper into the mystery, they uncover a dark secret, kept by the older islanders for almost half a century. A secret that has come back to haunt them and threatens their very existence.

This story was fun and easy to follow.

I really enjoyed the narrator and the main characters of the story. I hope to hear more stories involving these characters.

Acid wit

What a fun cozy mystery! I’m going to have to read the whole series. I love the sarcasm and Scottish humor.

Funny, loved the Scottish accent

The “murder” story line was so far fetched and boring . No suspense, but overall ok

Didn’t finish

I didn’t finish the story because the f word was used twice in the first few minutes. I don’t find that a relaxing way to spend my time.

Tacky

The story and reader were average. Sophomoric references to sex and bathroom functions deserve no stars!
