De: Mary Feliz

Narrado por: Rebecca Mitchell

Professional organizer Maggie McDonald has a knack for cleaning up other people's messes. So when the fiancee of her latest client turns up dead, it's up to her to sort through the untidy list of suspects and identify the real killer.

Maggie McDonald is hoping to raise the profile of her new Orchard View organizing business via her first high-profile client. Professor Lincoln Sinclair may be up for a Nobel Prize, but he's hopeless when it comes to organizing anything other than his thoughts. For an academic, he's also amassed more than his share of enemies.

When Sinclair's fiancee is found dead on the floor of his home laboratory - electrocuted in a puddle of water - Maggie takes on the added task of finding the woman's murderer. To do so, she'll have to outmaneuver the suspicious, obnoxious police investigator she's nicknamed "Detective Awful" before a shadowy figure can check off the first item on their personal to-do list - Kill Maggie McDonald.

Four and a half stars

This is a pretty good mystery. There are a few twists and turns and Maggie manages to stop on top of mostly everything. The only complaint I have is that Maggie is sickenly sweet and capable. She never has a negative word for anyone which is unrealistic.

Good cozy mystery

Slow beginning, but got better as the story progressed. Narrator was very good. Not a bad cozy mystery.
