About this listen

Simmy Brown has a lot on her mind. Not just keeping her florist business afloat, her father’s failing health and the challenge of developing a long-term relationship with Christopher but also the approach of Mother’s Day, a busy and painful day for her. But in taking an order for a retirement party in Staveley, she is pulled into her most challenging investigation.

When a daughter starts accusing her own mother of murder, Simmy, Ben and Bonnie find themselves taking different sides of the investigation. With her relationships under strain, Simmy is tried on all fronts. However, she has to learn to leave her own concerns behind to discover just who the killer is.

I love the Lake District & found the first book in the series in a visit to Booths in Keswick in December 2018. I read the next few books avidly but then had a break of about a year. This book was listened to unlike the others I thin’ it probably does not focus much on the countryside like the others but most of all I think it was the voices used. Simmy had a rather pathetic voice which really spoilt this reading

I have loved this series but was disappointed with this book
