About this listen

Everyone knows the dead woman under the lighthouse, but no one seems to know why she died. What brought the folk-rock star back to Exham on Sea after so many years? Who wanted her dead? Does the key to her murder lie in the town, or far away across the Atlantic?

Libby Forest arrives in Exham to build a new life making cakes and chocolates, and discovers a talent for solving mysteries, helped by Bear, an enormous Carpathian sheepdog, and a cast of local characters. The green fields, rolling hills, and sandy beaches of England's West Country provide a perfect setting for crime, intrigue, and mystery.

Could not stand the voice

I might have enjoyed story more if her voice was not so painful. had no expression.. I could not handle it wanted to give her a tissue to blow her nose. Horrible glad it was a free one

Too short

I enjoyed the story but it was sadly too short. You couldn’t have guessed who did it until the end.
The narrator sounds like she has a cold, so it was a little off putting but not enough to stop listening.

A pleasant surprise…

Most enjoyable cozy mystery. A surprise really. I was just going through the free titles available for the month and stumbled across this gem. I Highly recommend the series. Now I’m off to read the next book…

A simple tale set in a small coastal village.

A rather dull story, with fairly bland narration. I would not recommend unless you were looking for a quick fill-in “read”’of about four hours.

Big Mystery

I enjoyed this story. The mystery keeps you guessing, I changed my mind over and over, I never guessed who the perpetrator was. Good story.

Not exceptional

The performance was quite good but the story was short and not substantial, found it disappointing.

Enjoyed it

The narrator nearly drove me mad....very dead-pan. I am going to read the series so I hope the publishers changed the narrator at some point as the author's work definitely deserves better.
