About this listen

When a body turned up at her last catering gig it certainly put people off the hors d’oeuvres. With a reputation to salvage, Jodie’s determined that her next job for the village’s festival will go off without a hitch.

But when chaos breaks out, Jodie Parker somehow always finds herself caught up in the picture. The body of a writer from the festival is discovered at the bottom of a cliff, and the prime suspect turns out to be the guest of honour, the esteemed painter Duncan Stovall.

With her background in the Met police, Jodie has got solving cases down to a fine art so she knows things are rarely as they seem.

Can she find the killer before the village faces another brush with death?

This title was previously published as A Brush with Death.

I really like this series. Easy to listen to and not too sappy. Full of fish & chips & fun crime-solving.
This one has not been edited properly; there are several places where the narrator has paused and re-done a line for it to be corrected in editing but that hasn't happened. For some of the longer ones it's a bit odd to hear it keep repeating. It doesn't really affect the story.

Excellent story, bad editing.

I like the characters especially Jodie. I also like the snippets of humour that are always popping up in the story, they made me chuckle.

I love this series of books. They are beautifully narrated too. I am just about to listen to Book 3. If you love your murder mystery books with a good dollop of humour, a touch of will they, won't they romance and a recipe at the end, you will love this!

Fabulous. :)
