The postmistress is dead

This was a fun cozy mystery that kept you guessing until the end. This is book two in the series and I have listened to book three also, so it is safe to say you don't need to have listened to the books in order to enjoy them (because I haven't) and it is not a complicated plot where you feel you have missed some big connections in the previous books. It was easy to listen to and the plot unfolded nicely with a few twists thrown in. I liked the characters, especially the feisty mum Angela, oh and the pet's. At the end of the book the author included a number of the cocktails recipes mentioned in the book, which sounded fun. All in all a nice story with a little bit of humour added in.
Something strange is going on with the post in the village, letters are arriving late, going missing or turning up in other people's boxes. This is how Daisy and Rose uncover a blackmail plot, they end up with the money intended for the blackmailer. It doesn't take them long to work out who In the village is being blackmailed and they being to suspect there might be other victims out there. It is only after the postmistress is killed that they really start to investigate and In doing so become targets for malice pranks. Has blackmail turned a person into a killer? Or is more than one person involved? When there house gets broken into, the sister's fear the mistakes at the post office means a killer thinks they have what they want. Is it money? Or the signed baseball card that the killer wants? With a storm on the way the sisters will have to battern down he hatches if they want to survive.
The narrator was okay and did use a variety of voices for the characters but some of them just made me laugh, they were so high pitched.
