About this listen

After playing a TV sleuth for years, Rita Martin retires to the sleepy town of Frantham-on-Sea. Here on the Dorset coast, she runs her own immaculate guest house, and life is blissfully quiet.

But then a few doors down, harmless old Mrs. Freer is bludgeoned to death, and Rina can’t help but be drawn into the mystery. Mrs. Freer’s home was ransacked, but this was no ordinary burglary. Who knew the old lady kept a gun stashed under her pillow? And who wanted it badly enough to kill?

Detective Sebastian McGregor is called in to solve this baffling case. But with her neighbors’ safety at stake, Rina knows she needs to give him a helping hand.

This enchanting character-driven mystery was originally published as A Reason to Kill.

Really good all round

I really enjoyed this book. Storyline was engaging with a gripping plot that was well executed. I really liked all the characters and I will definitely be listening to the books as I’m intrigued to see how they develop. Narrative was excellent too, really captured the atmosphere and depicted the characters brilliantly.

An excellent cosy mystery!

I loved this book, the characters are idiosyncratic and well drawn, the murders are also well drawn. A great start to a promising series.

Good to listen to, definitely worth it.

A good plot and a very satisfactory ending.
The characters are plausible and the protagonist is not who you would expect.
