Summary

Even though running Crewel World keeps Betsy plenty busy, a little extra cash on the side doesn't hurt. So when the local senior complex, Watered Silk, asks her to teach a class on the tricky punch needle technique, Betsy jumps at the opportunity to win over some new customers.

Unfortunately, the business that Betsy drums up is not of the needlework variety. A young woman is found floating in Watered Silk's therapy pool, and Betsy's sleuthing skills are immediately called upon to figure out who drowned her. But the list of suspects is more twisted than any Betsy has encountered before. The young woman had three lovers - each with a motive for the murder. It's up to Betsy to sort out the snarl of romantic entanglements and find a killer.

Good and interesting story but in my opinion a very poor narration, much preferred the previous narrator.

Iffy

Ruined by yet another narrator who should keep away from accents. Really very poorly done

Another entertaining story

I have listened to all but the last two of the Betsy Devonshire books and enjoyed the stories and the regular narrator, Susan Boyce. However, this was read by someone else and it ruined the book. Godwin sounded like Donald Duck and Gill sounded like Minnie Mouse. Connor, who is Irish sounded like a robot and most definitely not an Irish accent. Trust me I’m British. Fortunately I see that Susan is back for the final 2 in the series.
The narrator is so important in audio books as they can make or break your enjoyment of the book.

Good story but awful narration

storyline amazing but prefer Susan Boyce narrating, she has a much wider ability to change her voice to suit the characters.......
