Summary

A Murder Scene Where Nothing Is as It Seems

Brandy witnesses a murder at a drive thru joint with the unlikely name of Cluck It: Chicken by the Bucket. And then it turns out nothing at the scene’s what it seems, or at any rate nobody’s who they seem. Seems Cluck It is not just a place to clog your arteries but also a transgender hangout. And with that discovery, you know you're in New Orleans.

The Local New Orleans Color Never Stops

Brandy’s complex Irish Channel family develops the kind of problem that is a lot more fun on the page than in real life. What to do when your sister gets pregnant with one of the next-door twins, but she doesn't know which twin? (Be glad it's Brandy’s problem, not yours.)

She also finds a mysterious box of valuable jewelry under her closet floor, becomes the unofficial caretaker of the Tarot reader across the street who knows the future but can never predict when she’s going to get so drunk she’s going to fall into her own bushes, and develops a strong suspicion about one of her other neighbors, all the while juggling the two Romeos.

Luckily, Brandy Is Better at Solving Mysteries Than She Is at Wrangling Her Boyfriends

The listener can rest assured she’s eventually, and in fine style, going to weave together the myriad mysterious strands that confound the police (who happen to count Boy Friend #1 among their ranks) and present them the solution with all the panache of an old-style detective like Hercule Poirot, yet none of the pretension. You can almost hear her wondering, “Did I do that?”

Fans of cozy mysteries and chick lit heroines will delight in Brandy’s flat-out lovability and Mooney’s almost offhand yet spot-on (and often hilarious) observations of everyday New Orleans life.

If you like contemporary stylish heroines like those popularized by Janet Evanovich, Elaine Viets, Stephanie Bond, and Gemma Holliday, and humorous mysteries like those by Donna Andrews, Dorothy Cannell, and Lisa Lutz, you're going to get a girl crush on Brandy Alexander.

Filling in the blanks

What a powerful story! So many twists and turns in this one...left me in tears at times. Brandy gets answers to questions she's had about both the men in her life and things take a dangerous turn on the home front. Great narration, as always, by Alyson Krawchuk.

Murder New Orleans style

I enjoyed this book. The whole series has turned out to be a fun and colourful mystery and this book is no exception. I just loved it. Each book is a stand alone book and the author does tell you a lot about what has already happened, so you can listen to them in any order but to keep the magic going I think it is better to listen to them in the correct order. What I like is the characters and I often find my self chuckling over the situations they find themselves getting into. The author describes the goings on really well, so it easy to picture it happening and kind of reminds me of the earlier Stephanie Plum books. The mystery was good also and kept you guessing as to what was going on. Can't wait to start the next book.
Tried from a busy day of work Brandy stops at a drive thru called Cluck it but instead of getting chicken she ends up with bullets. She arrives just in time to see one drag queen get killed and another kidnapped. Just want she needs, to get involved in another homicide investigation with her ex boyfriend as the lead detective. Her home life isn't much better. She has just moved into a new home and has to rescue her next door neighbour from her bush, which turns out to be a daily event, she finds jewellry hidden in the bottom of her cupboard but no sign of the owner so she can return it, the local bar is seedy and not a place you want to spend any time at and is the same place they are betting how many times the fortune teller will get helped out of the bush by Brandy. Her younger goody two shoes sister is pregnant and going to get married before her and to top it all off her ex boyfriends partner (the one who hated her on sight) is being nice to her. What is going on?
I liked the narrator and think she adds a little sparkle to the telling of this colourful cozy mystery.
