About this listen
Recently engaged and with a new diner to run, Nora Newberry has plenty to do in her hometown of Milburn, Wyoming. But when you're given the chance to spend a weekend in Hawaii with friends...you take it!
And, while it was tough to leave her fiancé and business behind, that's just what she did!
Of course, she'll miss both. But she can't wait to soak up the sun, fun and...murder?
When an employee at the local zoo is found dead, the victim of an apparent snake bite, at first it seems like an accident. But something doesn't feel right to Nora, who'd previously met both the dead man and the snake. So, before long, the ladies' relaxing weekend away on a tropical island is plagued by a murder mystery.
A murder mystery that Nora insists on solving.

I was not impressed with the readers who preformed in the book, it too a along time to really get into the book, but as the plot thickens it gets more interesting and the ending of the book was much better than the beginning. and it was an overall gretboris@gmail.com read and listening on audio is a great experience with a book like this one, and I love Nancy McGovern books so I can't wait to start the next one.Thank you Nancy
