Summary
Tucked next to a pristine lake, the part-Medieval Europe, part-Renaissance Faire hamlet of Whispering Pines, Wisconsin, is a utopia...except for the recent murders.
One month after arriving in the Northwoods, former detective Jayne O'Shea has settled comfortably into small-town life and is making good progress with her task of getting her grandparents' house ready for sale. Then, the shocking death of one of the carnies rocks the community, and the villagers look to Jayne for help, placing her in an impossible middle ground of not wanting to get involved and needing to ensure justice is served.
When a second carney turns up dead and the newly hired sheriff - more concerned with ticketing tourists than catching the killer - dismisses the death as an accident, Jayne has no choice but to step in. Can she uncover the truth before the murderer strikes again?

Captivating Listen!
What wonderful characters and imagery are in this book! Shawn McGuire has spun another fantastic tale. The bond between Jayne (main character) and Meeks (her dog) was so realistic! I was pulled into this book from the very beginning. I loved the unexpected twists and this interesting village. I loved the bed and breakfast too and want to learn more. Sandra Murphy did a great performance with this book. I had requested this review copy audiobook and have voluntarily written this review. I'm looking forward to listening to more books by this author and narrator.

Don't keep this secret to yourself
I enjoyed this book.Then again I started with book 6 and loved it so had to go back to the start of the series, so I knew it was my type of story- quirky, fun characters and a good mystery and this book doesn't disappoint in anyway. You don't need to listen to the books in order but it doesn't mean I know some of out comes of the sub plots, so I think I would probably recommend listening to them in order. As I said the characters are fun but it is the interaction between them that I like, the way on minute Jayne is questioning a suspect and then is accepting magical gifts the next this makes the story interesting because the characters are all so colourful and don't follow the norm. Off to start the next book.
Jayne is still trying to talk her parent's into letting her turn her grandmothers house into a bed and breakfast and while she waits for the answer she is keeping busy buy getting it ready to sell, just in case. On a rare night out she and Trip (her hopeful business partner) visit the carnival and watch some death defying acts and stunts In the big top. So Jayne is surprised to return in the morning for a forgotten jumper to find one of the carnies tangled up in her own silks. After having seen her show the previous night she is reluctant to believe the tragic death was an accident. With no body in change until the village appoints a new sheriff Jayne lets her cop instincts take over and she starts asking questions and looking for clues. She is less than impressed when the town council appoints someone. Especially when the green rookie jumps to conclusions and seems more happy with locking up tourist than looking into the death. Then another carnie is killed and Jayne is left wondering how the sheriff can rule it another accident. This time she has to take action and get to the bottom of these murders befire anyone else is killed.
I like the narrator and wouldn't change anything about the way she reads these stories.
