About this listen
Wanderlust Tours guide Lana Hansen and her mother, Gillian, haven’t seen eye to eye in over a decade, ever since Lana was wrongly fired from her job as an investigative reporter. So when Lana’s boss invites Gillian to join her upcoming Mother’s Day tour to the Netherlands, Lana is less than pleased.
What could be worse than spending ten days with her estranged mother? Lana is about to find out…
The tour begins on a high note when the majority of guests bond during their visit to the Keukenhof Gardens and a cruise around the picturesque canals of Amsterdam.
Despite her initial reservations, Lana thinks this might be the best group she had ever led. Until she discovers one of her guests—a recent retiree named Priscilla—is the person who destroyed her career in journalism.
All Lana can see is red. But circumstances dictate that she figure out a way to lead the tour, make peace with her mother, and not murder her guest. She doesn’t know whether she can handle the pressure.
Lana needn’t worry. Shortly after their fight, Priscilla falls off the balcony of a historic windmill at Zaanse Schans. Was she pushed or simply careless? The investigating officers suspect murder—and topping their suspect list is Lana’s mom!
Can Lana save Gillian? Or will her mother end up spending the rest of her days in a Dutch prison? Pick up Death by Windmill: A Mother’s Day Murder in Amsterdam now to find out!

Fake, Mechanical Voice
The AI voice is not engaging to listen to. I got four chapters into this book and am giving up on it. The story is compelling to me as a traveler and Northwesterner. I enjoy a well read, well told story and this voice isn’t doing that. I am impressed with the programming that allows the voice to communicate as well as it does - question marks invite the voice to raise in pitch, for example. Most of the time, though, the words are just being read monotonously. I’ll check out the print version.
