Poison in Paddington

Cassie Coburn Mysteries, Book 1

By: Samantha Silver

Narrated by: Patricia Santomasso

When Cassie Coburn moved to London, she never thought she'd be involved in a quadruple homicide.

After a car accident ended her medical career before it even started, Cassie moved to London on a whim, expecting to see the sights and live the typical tourist backpacker lifestyle. Instead she finds herself accompanying a French private detective, Violet Despuis, as they attempt to find out who poisoned four people in the middle of London.

Cassie's life soon includes this crazy detective, an ancient landlady with a curious past, a mischievous orange cat who likes going for walks on a leash, and a super-hot pathologist that Cassie is sure is out of her league. And they haven't even found the murderer yet....

The Cassie Coburn mysteries are a cozy mystery series featuring a Sherlock Holmes-style sleuth. If you want a light, fun, modern mystery featuring a San Francisco girl totally out of her element in London and a crazy French woman who happens to be very good at noticing things, then this is the series for you.

A real who-dun-it

Sassy and persistent, the dynamic duo solve the murder mystery.

The narrator kept the pace going.

I was given a free review copy of this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

What fun

What a wonderful series. It is really fun. I don’t normally buy both kindle and audio but this time I have.

What one irresponsible person can do in an instant!

I am really enjoying the premise of these stories. The characters are completely fleshed out, also all different and abnormal as people should be. Glad to have found
Ms Silver. Was getting bored by expected reactions.

Good Cozy Mystery!

I really enjoyed listening to this book. The storyline was original and held my interest. I would enjoy other books in the series.

Fresh and clever mystery Excellent narration

The main character plays off a "Monk" like logical character giving this fresh approach life and dimension. To me the very best part of the story are the characters, Violet, Cassie and Jake who , while relatable, have more depth than usually found in cozy mysteries. The characters have unusual stories but are not kooky or comical. It is not the mystery but how the characters deal with it that makes this story intriguing.
