About this listen

Bianca Rossington is leading the life she’s always wanted—working a dream job in a vibrant city that suits her perfectly—until an anonymous stalker begins to ruin it all. When the situation escalates from flowers and phone calls to a veiled death threat, Bianca hires Roy Ballard and Mia Madison, who have worked together for years and recently opened a private investigation firm. They quickly identify several possible suspects, but they also learn that their client might not be giving them the full story. Can Roy and Mia sort fact from fiction as the situation turns deadly and somebody attempts to scare them off the case?

I listened to all 10 books back to back. Mr Peppers delivers a dynamic and enjoyable narration. The main characters were likeable and the cases had more twists and turns than a rollercoaster. I highly recommend any and all of the books in this series.

Excellent series. A must listen

I enjoyed this book and after the last book its nice to see Roy and Mia back in action. This was an unusual case, as what seemed like simply identifying a stalker quickly turned into a much more complicated case, where even there client became a suspect. I enjoyed the mystery with all the twists, it was like being on a roller coaster ride and never knowing where you are going to end up. It certainly kept me guessing as to who was involved and I liked how it played out. The story moved at a fast paced and with a lot going on it has me hooked until the end. I like the characters, Roy's skill for annoying people is just a blast and Mia's kind heart keeps the two of them on the right track and me eagerly awaiting the next book.

Having passed there private investigation exam Roy and Mia take on a case that was referred to them by one of Roy's earliest clients. I woman is being stalked and wants to know who is leaving here mysterious present in a secured building. The pair quickly turn there attention to her ex boyfriend and co worker but somebody takes a shot at the ex boyfriend and it turns out its not the first time the victim has had a stalker, things get a lot more complicated. Can they save there client or do they need to save someone from her?
I like the narrator. With all the one liners and banter from Roy the narrator has perfect timing and temperament to pull it off and make it a great listen.

Another great listen
