Sam Applewhite, Book 1

De: Heide Goody, Iain Grant

Narrado por: Matthew Lloyd Davies

Some bodies just won’t stay buried.

When a client tells Sam Applewhite she’s seen ghosts in the nearby graveyard, Sam dismisses it as the ramblings of an old woman. She’s got bigger things to worry about. Keeping on top of her job at DefCon4 Security Services isn’t easy - particularly since her manager is a cactus, and no one will tell her what her job actually is.

But when the ghost-spotting client goes missing, and only Sam suspects foul play, she is compelled to dig deeper. Aided by her retired stage magician father and the owner of the most outlandish junk shop on the sea front, Sam dives into a mystery involving psychotic seals, unexploded air force munitions, DIY foot surgery, and a corpse that just won’t quit.

Loved it

As alway a great book by Heide Goody and Iain Grant. Fun characters funny as always and a great tale. Would recommend to anyone who likes a good mystery and a bit of fun.

Excellent!

Loved every minute of this book. It was very dark - but hilariously so! I found myself staying up till 2 in the morning, because I just didn't want it to end. The authors, and the narrator, are a match made in heaven. Buying the next one in the series RIGHT NOW (who needs sleep?).

I love this so much

I saw some negative reviews so I felt obligated to weigh in.

I LOVE these books. Everything written by this pair and read by this narrator. You’ll know if it’s for you. If it’s not then 🤷‍♀️ It’s definitely for a specific reader. If you like goofy British comedy… if you like Douglas Adams for instance… you’ll love this. But if you don’t like silly comedy you’ll hate it. I think if you give this a bad review you’re really revealing yourself as a careless selector. Pick stuff in your genre! Also if you love this look at their other books - the Odd Jobs series is pure gold.

A fun and far out romp

I loved the zaniness of this story! Calamity is woven into this story of greed and shady business dealings that leads to murder. It's outlandish happenings is the charm of the story. This tale has a Maxwell Smart meets I Love Lucy---esk feel to it that just draws you in.

Fun

I am on my second trip through this series. The stories are eccentric and suspenseful. The closest I can come to a comparison is the movie Fargo. If you liked that, you will love this series.
