LITTLE BOOKSHOP OF MURDER Beach Reads, Book 1

Shakespearean scholar Summer Merriweather has returned to her childhood home on Brigid's Island in North Carolina upon the sudden death of her mother in this cozy mystery. Narrator Christa Lewis matches the pace of this audiobook--laid-back and slow much of the time but energetic as the pace builds. When Summer finds a death threat addressed to her mother that orders her to sell her bookshop, Beach Reads, Summer decides to track down the sender. Listeners will love Lewis's voice for Mr. Darcy, the African gray parrot. As the conclusion nears, Lewis builds the suspense with increased intensity, making listeners eager for the ending.
