About this listen

Betsy is still new enough to Excelsior, Minnesota, to not know a scandal when she causes one. So, when she hires Foster Johns to fix her roof, the resulting uproar has her needled.

The whole town has pinned a five-year-old unsolved double murder on him. Betsey believes Johns when he says he isn't guilty. But she'll have to use every stitch of her sleuthing skills to tie up all the loose ends that will prove his innocence once and for all.

Light, fun listening in spite of random inclusions - Rik Lightfoot, for eg - turfed in with absolutely no relevance to plot. But a sweet little gambol down Amateur Detective Lane. Manage your expectations and you'll enjoy this

I enjoy the characters in these books. The writing flows nicely, it’s well read and isn’t full of gore or sex

Easy listening

I really enjoy this series. It’s a light hearted mystery romp I can listen to whilst crafting! However I’m going to complain here because the next 5 books are missing from the Audible catalogue. Like many others I’ve invested in the characters and want to know what has happened to them not jump 5 years ahead. All the later books are available so why not numbers 8-12?

Enjoyable as always but what about the rest
