Murder in the Wine Country

Kelly Jackson Mystery Series, Book 6

By: Janet Finsilver

Narrated by: Reba Buhr

Weeding out killers wasn't part of the job description . . . .

Kelly Jackson, manager of the Redwood Cove Bed and Breakfast, is excited to participate in an event to raise awareness for the plight of struggling veterans in their Northern California coastal community. Local wineries are sponsoring tastings, and to prepare for a culinary competition, professional chefs will forage for wild edible greens. Kelly plans to come along, despite a warning to beware of poachers, who have been stealing the highly valued succulent Dudleya farinosa.

The senior sleuths who call themselves the Silver Sentinels join forces with environmental activists known as the Succulent Saviors to thwart the poaching operation. When a consultant for the sale of a local winery is murdered, the poachers are suspected - but so is a wine merchant, Kelly's friend Phil. As Kelly and the Silver Sentinels attempt to root out the real killer, what she digs up might just put her permanently underground....

Enjoyable

I have listened to all the boos in this series so far. I thoroughly enjoy the series, love the characters and look forward to any upcoming books. Parts are sometimes predictable or a little coincidental but overall great casual comfort read!

ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT

THIS WAS A GREAT READ, PARTICULARLY IF YOU HAVE COME TO LOVE AND APPRECIATE THESE CHARACTERS, AS I HAVE. KELLY, SCOTT, MICHAEL, THE SILVER SENTINELS, HELEN, TOMMY, BILL, AND OTHERS - THEIR CHEMISTRY JUST WORKS. THEIR DIALOGUE IS INTELLIGENT, BUT NEVER STILTED, AND RESPECT, LOVE, AND HUMOR RUN THROUGH IT ALL. I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE NEXT BOOK.

Please say there are more books coming!

Absolutely fun series. Great stories, great actor reading them, and just all around good reading.
What I loved most about this book and series is that all ages were in the story.

I hope there will be more books coming out for this series. It is delightful!

good story line

the entire series has a good story line as well as each book having it's own mystery. The book actually has more than one mystery to follow. wish there were more to the series, disappointed this is the last one at this time. I hope the author continues this series soon.

Lovely characters

This is a delightful light heartwarming read! It has just the right amount of suspense, with characters that you get quite attached to.

great book

loved this series. enjoyed getting to know all the characters and the silver sentinels were the favorite. I hope there will be more to come!!!

great cozy mystery!

I have had the pleasure of listening to all 6 books in this series. The characters are loveable and the story plots are easy to follow.
I definitely recommend you take a listen.
The reader was a bit difficult for me because of her reading style but I am glad I stuck to it. In the end the stories won out over the reading.

enjoyed the whole series

easy to listen to wish there was more to the series hopefully there will be more in the future

Loved this entire series

I found all of the books in the Kelly Jackson series to be very enjoyable. The characters were well developed and I liked that Kelly always saved herself when she got into trouble rather than depending on someone else to rescue her. I loved that there were always animals in the stories. The author included some amazing abilities of dogs which made the stories all the more interesting. I just wish there were more books in the series.

Pros and Cons

I listened to this collection from start to finish.
I love the Senior Sentinels.
However, as the series went on there were LOTS of characters - so many, in fact, that they were hard to keep up with.
The author needs to stop writing “Continued on”. That is redundant. However, it seems to be a favorite of hers. By the time I finished the whole series, I couldn’t believe that no one in the whole publishing suggest that she should omit “on”.
