Mia Hutchinson-Shaw makes this audiobook mystery equal parts thrilling and comforting as she narrates in alternating sassy and hushed tones. In 1964, mystery-and-romance-novel-loving Billie McCadie is one of the last people in Eastport, Maine, to see Gertrude alive after a mysterious man in a fedora comes to town. Soon, Billie starts receiving odd phone calls. Listeners will find themselves immersed in the complicated mystery as Hutchinson-Shaw builds the suspense. The author adds to the experience as she eases listeners in and out of a bygone Maine by narrating her introduction and epilogue. Those looking for 1960s ambiance, diary-like familiarity, and grandparents who consider JELL-O a main food group need look no further.
