Olivia Limoges is the subject of constant gossip. Ever since her mysterious return to the small coastal town of Oyster Bay, North Carolina, Olivia has kept to herself, her dog, and her unfinished novel. With a little cajoling from charming writer Camden Ford, she agrees to join the Bayside Book Writers to break her writer's block and even make a few friends. But when townspeople start turning up dead with haiku poems left by the bodies, anyone with a flair for language is suddenly suspect. And it's up to Olivia to catch the killer before she meets her own surprise ending.

I’m hooked! I can’t wait to read all of this series and follow these characters development.

Great characters.

Main character is remote and unsympathetic: completely unengageing and aloof. Story line had little, if no, feeling of believability. Don't bother with this one.

Unsatisfactory

First read....good storyline. It was a fun read but drug a bit in places. Not sure about a heroin who ignored the facts that it is listed that dogs are not allowed in places, but she takes her large dog in anyway, including restaurants and she parks where ever she pleases, regardless of posted restrictions.

Where does A Killer Plot rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Number 1

What did you like best about this story?

Elderly Adams is the most original writer in the Cozy Mystery genre I have come across. I am now on the last book in this series and not a single one disappointed me. Unfortunately most books in this genre are very similar, not this series.

What about Karen White’s performance did you like?

This series might not be as good without the outstanding performance of Karen White. Her voice and inflections match perfectly what I would expect the heroine in this story to sound like. She does a wonderful job.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes

Fantastic

I wasn't sure if I was going to like this series, but this book cemented Ellery Adams as one of my favorite authors. I simply love everything she writes. A definite read or listen.

Great start to an amazing series

The only way I could get through this was to speed up the narration to 1.25. At regular speed the not particularly inspiring prose was rendered worse by an overly slow narration, like there was drama in every cliché, which clearly there was not. That said, the mystery was relatively satisfying. But honestly, I presumed this was self-published and was surprised to find it actually got a regular publisher. Way too many standard tropes and descriptive phrases.

Iffy writing and mediocre narration

Was really hopeful that this series would be a great fit. First, the story was very good. Mature writing with good depth and quality in descriptions. Writing seemed to be improving as story unfolded. Just when most characters appeared to be moving toward cliche territory, the author snatched them from the brink with unexpected turns which none-the-less avoided "jumping the shark."
The narration was uneven however and quite annoying in the beginning. Odd stilted way of portraying the main character. Sometimes general narration was presented in that same odd manner. This did improve part way into the book but was present so strongly one was tempted to stop listening.
Some cliche portrayals of characters still seem present: Small town people are simple and ignorant, working men hate queers, wealthy people are selfish and grasping, etc. Hopefully the author will continue to open her own mind and eyes for character creations and continual growth in the next book and avoid the easy way so prevalent in many series. This will avoid the tedium which strikes when the characters become characatures of themselves.
Good series beginning.

Mixed, with good story, some interesting character

While I loved Olivia's devotion to her poodle Havilland, I didn't connect with the main character. The author showed talent and humor, so I would try another book by Ellery Adams.

Poodle Had Potential
