About this listen

Welcome to Nocturne Falls, the town that celebrates Halloween 365 days a year.

Jayne Frost is a lot of things. Winter elf, Jack Frost's daughter, Santa Claus's niece, heir to the Winter Throne, and now private investigator. Sort of.

Needing someone he can trust, her father sends her undercover to Nocturne Falls to find out why employees at the Santa's Workshop toy store are going missing.

Doing that requires getting to know the town, which leads to interesting encounters with a sexy vampire, an old flame, and an elevator that's strictly off-limits. The more Jayne finds out, the more questions she has, but the answers lead her deeper into danger.

Will her magic save her? Or will she come up cold?

Kristen Painter manages to create an interesting world that is populated by strange but believable characters. This first in the series spin-off from the Nocturn Falls series is no exception.

Good performance by Hollis McCarthy.

Another good one

Kristen Painter is fast becoming a favourite author of mine and I can't wait to read more of her books; I love her writing style and find her books very easy to read.

I love all the characters that Ms Painter has created for her fictional town of Nocturne Falls and I love that this new series is set there too. I really enjoyed the mystery aspect of the plot in this book; its twists and turns, the many clues and red herrings that were revealed and although, I had guessed the big secret before it was revealed, I still found myself gripped with the story, keen to keep reading.

I downloaded the Audible version of this book and was impressed with Hollis McCarthy's performance; the pace of her narration was just right and I enjoyed her slight vocal variances for the dialogue of the different characters too.

There is absolutely no offensive content within these pages - language, violence or sex - and so I can recommend it to lovers of charming, paranormal mystery tales who enjoy a sprinkling of humour and a bit of romance with a happy ever after ending.

A Fab Start to this Cosy Paranormal Mystery Series

What did you like best about Miss Frost Solves a Cold Case? What did you like least?

The setting in Nocturne Falls was the best thing. The worst thing was that there was no real involvement at all from any of the characters that we've come to know and love. I know it's a new series but why set it in NF if you're not going to include anyone we know? (except as the most casual passing reference)

What three words best describe Hollis McCarthy’s voice?

The narrator was OK - her voice is pleasant but her dialect/accent switching quite patchy so that our heroine ended up with an Irish accent if she was speaking to Greyson and so on. Also a lot of the characters seemed .. for no particular reason sound like someone from NY or New Jersey - which is a bit strange as NF is in Georgia and the heroine is from the north pole? As a Brit I found it particularly confusing.

Could you see Miss Frost Solves a Cold Case being made into a movie or a TV series? Who would the stars be?

No I really can't

Any additional comments?

I wouldn't listen to any more of this series although I may read the next book before making a final decision. I REALLY want the next Nocturne Falls (with B.J narrating) to be available now!

OK but it's NOT Nocturne Falls
