De: Pat Dennis

Narrado por: Michelle Myers Berg

Can three scrappy, single women of varied ages find happiness in a new travel business specializing in casino junkets? All bets are off when Betty Chance finds a body in a tour bus that arrives at the casino hotel.

At 50, Betty is unemployed, divorced, and penniless, after her husband left her for an older, fatter woman. But with her stunningly beautiful niece Lori, she opens Take A Chance Tours, a Chicago-based company specializing in gaming destinations. Betty quickly becomes close friends with Tillie, the perky, effervescent bus driver who happens to be an ex-con. As soon as the tour bus arrives at Moose Lake Bay Resort and Casino in northern Minnesota, Betty and her driver Tillie, discover a dead body in the locked bathroom of their motorcoach. The 350-pound corpse is riddled with stab wounds. With Tillie and Lori’s help, Betty puts her amateur sleuth ability to work and searches for the killer.

Great listen

I don't write many reviews, however, I really liked this book. It had the basic plot of a cozy murder, yet the characters were unique, the plot was compelling, and I wish there were twenty books to listen to instead of 2 (so far).

pretty good

Murder by Chance is a pretty good cozy mystery with engaging characters and an interesting plot. The ending seemed a bit far fetched to me. The narrator did a great job giving everyone a voice. I'll probably get the next book.

Take a Chance on this book!

You will love Betty Chance, owner of Take a Chance Tours and Tilly the driver. I fell in love with these characters. So relatable. I want to go on another tour please!
