Length: 7 hrs and 23 mins

Publisher's summary

With the arrival of six senior reading group members at the Merry Ghost Inn, the long-awaited grand opening week has finally begun for Melanie West and her grandmother Liza. All is well with the Oregon coast-side B&B until Melanie's dog, Max, finds the dead body of one of their guests.

Everyone at the inn immediately falls under suspicion, including the innkeepers themselves. Melanie and Liza are not sure who they can trust, and the idea of cohabitating with a murderer is enough to send chills down anyone's spine. To make matters worse, the curmudgeonly town detective wants them to steer clear of the investigation, but doesn't seem too inspired to solve the case in a timely fashion himself. To clear their own names and to avoid the blight on the inn's reputation that yet another dead body will bring, Melanie and Liza dive headlong into the murder investigation.

With a little help from their chuckling ghost, Melanie and Liza dodge the detective, tip-toe around their suspicious guests, and still serve up delicious bed-and-breakfast meals on time in Kate Kingsbury's delightful second Merry Ghost Inn mystery, Doom with a View.

Just the right amount of charming cheese.

I can't get enough of these books! I blew through the first one and immediately started this one. I really enjoyed the last one and thought this was a solid second entry in this series. Fleshing out our main ladies and their lives even more, it was delightful. Going to start the 3rd one as soon as I post this, then I guess I have to find another series to start on since Kingsbury only has the 3.

Didn't want to put it down

This book was captivating and very entertaining. Doom with a View is book 2 in the series and I started it immediately after finishing book 1. I have really grown attached to these characters and like them quite a bit, especially Melanie and Max (the dog). I enjoyed working through the clues and trying to figure out who dun it alongside the main characters.
The narrator was fantastic. I enjoyed listening to her spin on the characters.
I'm a little disappointed that there is only one more book in the series but I'm excited to start it asap. I hope something develops with Melanie and her love interest. I do enjoy a romantic aspect in my cozies.

Entertaining but predictable

Easy listening while keeping me engaged. Just enough romance. Appreciate the details the author includes to paint the picture of the scene.
