About this listen

Now in the center ring... murder!

Newly minted private detective Charlotte Morgan, resident orphan of the Pineapple Port 55+ community, discovers she might not be an orphan after all. Stunned by the news, she distracts herself with a cat burglar who left a smear of make-upped whiskers on a sliding glass door and a path straight to "Clown Town," a community for retired circus performers. When a fortune-teller doesn't see her own death in the cards, Charlotte's burglary becomes a murder investigation!

Charlotte's neighborhood moms, Mariska and Darla, can't help with this one. They're busy infiltrating an underground golf cart racing ring, led by a shady operator and her toady sidekick....

When another circus performer falls victim to the Big Top Killer and Stephanie goes missing, Charlotte finds herself walking a highwire of danger.... This killer isn't clowning around!

Warning! Fans of the series will be particularly shocked by the breathless ending! (Though every book can be listened to as a stand-alone.)

I loved this book when I read it on my kindle but think I enjoyed it even more as an audio book. I would say it was more fun than a barrel of monkeys but you would soon get fed up with all the corny jokes this book brings to mind. In this book I really enjoyed the way the author has crossed over with her spin off series (The Shee McQueen Mystery series) and we learn a lot more about the characters in both books, although both series and books can be read as standalones but to be honest I don't see why would you want to miss out on all the fun. The author has a lot of fun with this book and it shows in her writing. The author isn't happy giving you just one story to entertain you and there is in fact two stories or situations going on, the main one focus on Charlotte investigating the circus murderers and there unusual residents and the side story (which is just as funny) is the troublesome twosome of Darla and Mariska in a golf cart drag race. How the author comes up with her plot ideas I have no idea but they work and keep me coming back for more.
When a cat burglar leaves behind a big clue to there identity Sheriff Frank calls in newly minted private detective Charlotte to help with the case. The clues lead Charlotte to a community where circus performers retire to and she arrives just in time to find a body. Who killed the fortune teller? And why didn't she predict her own death? After thinking Charlotte was an orphan for most of her life she is shooked when a surprise visit turns her world upside down. With Mariska and Darla up to something on there own, Charlotte turns to that unlikely source for help when another performer is found dead. Will Charlotte and her mother be able to find the killer before he strikes again? In a community where nobody is what they seem things are going to get hot and that's before Charlotte's nemesis Stephanie gets involved.
I love the narrator for this series. You have no problem telling the characters apart and in fact you feel like you get dragged into the story with them. So grab your popcorn and enjoy.
