About this listen

Things go awry for Katie Bonner when her former mother-in-law, Margo, throws a housewarming party at her lakeside rental and one of her guests ends up dead in the water. Maxwell Preston was a devoted husband—and a not-so-great dad. He was a beloved pharmacist who didn’t take care of his ramshackle property, which is destined to be a hot commodity on Victoria Square when his heir puts it up for sale. But most of all, Preston was a stranger to the others who attended the party.

Meanwhile, Nona Fiske takes charge of Victoria Square's big summer extravaganza—a disaster in the making, as what little power she’s seized has gone straight to her head. The Davenport sisters have their own agenda, and they’ve not only been poking around to find out more about the dead man but what other mischief has been going on around the Square.

So, who killed Maxwell Preston, and why? That’s what Katie wants to know—and she’s willing to risk everything to find out.

This was probably my favorite in the series. You’ll see why, as you listen! My least favorite character is the quilt shop owner. Why? She reminds me of a host of people I’ve known in my life, who love to make others as miserable as they are. But, everything is so well-written that you kinda’ get used to her. As for Katie, I hope she finds happiness because she deserves it. Enjoy!!

Katie is so wishy washy. I stopped reading this series. later came back because I forgot how cringe worthy she is. The mystery story is good but the heroine is obviously NOT a strong intelligent woman
