About this listen

At a crossroads between a cringe-worthy past (Todd the Toad) and an uncertain future (she's not exactly homeless, but it's close), Lucy Swift travels to Oxford to visit her grandmother. With Gran's undying love to count on and Cardinal Woolsey's, Gran's knitting shop, to keep her busy, Lucy can catch her breath and figure out what she's going to do.

Except it turns out that Gran is the undying. Or at least, the undead. But there's a death certificate. And a will, leaving the knitting shop to Lucy. And a lot of people going in and out who never use the door - including Gran, who is just as loving as ever, and prone to knitting sweaters at warp speed, late at night. What exactly is going on?

When Lucy discovers that Gran did not die peacefully in her sleep, but was murdered, she has to bring the killer to justice without tipping off the law that there's no body in the grave. Between a hot 500-year-old vampire and a dishy detective inspector, both of whom always seem to be there for her, Lucy finds her life getting more complicated than a triple cable cardigan. The only one who seems to know what's going on is her cat...or is it...her familiar?

This is an edited review.

My first review was based on comparing this book to similar in the genre. I think that was unfair.

This is the first book in a fun, light hearted series. A cozy mystery with witches and vampires that knit.

I got hooked and am at 10.



Light fun series

I just loved this tale about Lucy who travels to Oxford to visit her Grandmother only to fine that she has passed away leaving her knitting shop, Cardinal Woolsey's to Lucy. Yet all is not what it seems and soon Lucy is finding out that there is more to Oxford than knitting needles. With fabulously crafted characters and a plot that is both well crafted and well paced this is an easy listening tale that will engross and entertain in equal measure.

Wonderful start to a series
