The Leafy Hollow Mysteries, Book 6

De: Rickie Blair

Narrado por: Petrea Burchard

A shocking revelation. A long-buried secret. An old mystery reappears....

Verity Hawkes' new life as Leafy Hollow's resident landscaper and part-time sleuth is just about perfect. She has a new love interest, a new home - even a new pet. The last thing she needs is a reminder of her troubled past.

So, when her estranged father shows up with a plea for help, her first instinct is to throw the cad out. Until he reveals scandalous new details that threaten to tarnish the memory of her deceased, and beloved, mother.

To solve the decades-old cold case, Verity must confront a surly detective, a bungling helper, and a lethal paper shredder. But when the trail leads to murder, she soon becomes the prime suspect. To clear her name, Verity must solve the most baffling mystery she’s ever faced - one from her own life.

The Grave Truth is the sixth installment in a series of charmingly funny cozy mysteries. If you like picturesque Canadian villages, endearingly weird characters, and high-stakes whodunnits, then you'll love Rickie Blair’s Leafy Hollow series.

A TRULY ENJOYABLE READ

I DISCOVERED THIS SERIES LESS THAN 2 WEEKS AGO, I AM SAD TO SAY I AM NOW CAUGHT UP. EACH BOOK REVEALED A BIT MORE ABOUT THE CHARACTERS AND ADDED A NEW MYSTERY. I FOUND MYSELF LAUGHING OUT LOUD, AT TIMES, PUZZLING THROUGH CLUES, AT OTHERS, FEELING A TOUCH OF SADNESS OR ANXIETY WITH VERITY. I DO HOPE BOOK 7 IS ON ITS WAY.

Great!

As good as the others in the series! This is the first one I have listened to as an audiobook but have read others by this author. I enjoyed it as much as I did the ebook format. Very good mystery series. The narrator was great and nailed the voices well. The characters are well rounded and relatable for the most part. The world is built wonderfully and the author is able to spin a great tale which keeps you on the edge of your seat.

Great story

I didn't expect Verity's father to show up. All in all I really enjoyed this story and the characters. The author did a really great job keeping me interested in the book and the narrator brought the book to life for me.

4 and a half stars

The Grave Truth is action packed with several twists and turns and interesting mystery. The characters are engaging and has just enough humor without making the story silly. I took away half a star because it was frustrating for me when characters evaded answering a question directly. The mystery involves both the past and the present and gives information about Verity's parents. This is an entertaining book and was well written. I look forward to the next book.

This book was given to me for free in exchange for an unbiased review.

A Great Listen

Verity is patiently waiting for spring and just enjoying her life, when her deadbeat father walks back into her life. Her father stirs up all kinds of memories and feelings that Verity thought were long gone and a whole bunch of questions about her mother. Verity has a 20 year old missing person mystery to solve that seems to rotate around her mother and she attracts the wrong type of attention. A very enjoyable series, the characters are unique adding to the suspense filled plot in this action filled, humourous tale. I will be checking out more books in this series.
