When a body turned up at her last catering gig it certainly put people off the hors d’oeuvres. With a reputation to salvage, Jodie’s determined that her next job for the village’s festival will go off without a hitch.

But when chaos breaks out, Jodie Parker somehow always finds herself caught up in the picture. The body of a writer from the festival is discovered at the bottom of a cliff, and the prime suspect turns out to be the guest of honour, the esteemed painter Duncan Stovall.

With her background in the Met police, Jodie has got solving cases down to a fine art so she knows things are rarely as they seem.

Can she find the killer before the village faces another brush with death?

This title was previously published as A Brush with Death.

Loved the story, the plot is smart. The characters are very likeable. I only wish that the main character's romantic tensions would give a little in her favor. :)

Very good!

I really enjoyed this. I found Fiona’s stories are very easy to identify only wish I knew who killed him.

Nice story

From the moment I began book 1 in this series, I was hooked! Fiona’s wit, humor, and gift for storytelling put her high on my list of favorite writers and with Agatha Christie at numerous uno, that’s saying a lot.
I am a reader with somewhere around 900 books on Audible alone. I am delighted to begin book #3 in this deliciously delightful series!

Pure Delight

Love the banter and growing friendships with Tony and Nathan (rooting for the DCI). Makes drive time fly by!

Fun cozy detective mystery

Plot was a degree less. I love Jodi, her mom, daughter and Nathan and Tony - Duncan, the “other” man felt straight out of central casting. I can’t believe someone as smart as Jodi would ever have been more than passingly interested in him.
Still, happy with the ending. Reasonably happy with the mystery. Worth the time but not the author’s most compelling.

Performance is perfect

This might be the best cozy series I’ve read this year! Love it so much already!

Loving this cozy series!

The protagonist is funny, relatable, and clever. I wonder why there’s only 3 audiobooks where there seven books so far in the series. I definitely would continue to buy the rest of the series.

A really fun series

This series by Fiona Leitch has amazing characters and tough to solve mysteries coupled with humor, a little romance, and a great narrator. Sadly, only three of the much long series is available on Audible. When can we expect the rest to be released?

Audible, where are the rest?

Slight spoiler alert - there is an extra marital relationship that takes place with a couple characters. This is the only part that isn’t my style. And all of her “romance” parts are well done as to appreciate what a woman of age feels and experiences within the early budding of a romance. It never crosses the physical lines of passionate kissing and embraces.

Beyond the extramarital stuff (which was necessary to the story line…hmmm, does it sound like I’m justifying why I continued to listen….

I did enjoy the first book in the series so much that I went for the second. AND I’m getting ready to download the third (hoping there won’t be any extramarital stuff but will deal with it if there should be).

I like the wittiness of these this author’s writing style and the plots are intriguing.

So both first and second books have had a nice combination of mystery, wit and a nice spice of romance.

Oh, I will add one other minor issue. In the second audio, I felt like the narrator lost some distinction in the voices between a few characters. It didn’t happen all the time, just on occasion but enough for me to rewind to make sure I understood who was talking. The narrator probably just needed a break either way a nice cup of tea and some sassafras (sp) biscuits.

I’m off to download the third in this series.

Witty, modern but still quaint

Incredibly impressed with my introduction to this author… apparently she’s written a TON more books (including even more in this series) but not on Audible? Harper Collins and One more Chapter need to get on this ASAP! Also GREAT choice w/ Zara Ramm as the narrator … one of the BEST for this type of character (strong, witty and relatable female lead)

Where has this Writer Been?!
