A Fresh Kill

A Stoneybrook Mystery, Book 2

De: Eryn Scott

Narrado por: Jennifer Jill Araya

There's nothing like the Stoneybrook farmers market in summer. Fresh flowers, organic veggies, delicious jams...and a dead body. When an outsider turns up murdered, all of the evidence points to his rival, Stoneybrook's beloved florist.

Unable to believe a pillar of their community could be guilty of such a heinous crime, Hadley dives head-first into the investigation. Sure, she's busy looking for a new house, running her business, and dealing with her ex - who's back in town - but Hadley is determined to find the truth before the wrong man goes to jail.

Another Solid Cozy!

Can be read as a standalone but we already have some background of Stoneybrook and a good idea of who all the main characters are from book one. I enjoyed A Crafty Crime, but I think I liked this one better. The mystery in this one was a little bit more intriguing and I really wasn't expecting the culprit to be who it turned out to be. Less predictable than the first book, but is another well written solid cozy mystery that is a great addition to this adorable series. Loved that we get to know the characters better as well as their pasts.

The narration was just as fabulous in this book as it was in book 1. The narrator is consistent for the series thus far and has represented Hadley, the town, and the story well. Great narration made this another quick afternoon listen and I can't wait to hear more in the future.

Very fun

This is the second book in the series and like the first it is a fun book. Loved listening to the narrator as she brought each charm to life.

A honey of a problem...

Once again I find myself myself back in the cozy little town of Stoneybrook nestled in the Pacific Cascades, and that setting is one of the reasons I fell in love with the series. There's a delightful farmers-market to boot! In this story, it's the market's season opening, but with a twist... this will be the first time a vendor from outside the area will be allowed to open a booth. True to form, the town gossips are all prepped and ready for the market's newest vendor, who unfortunately, seems to be a no-show... or is he? Hadley and her twin brother are ready to dive into the towns most recent sticky death...
Grab this audio book for yourself, and enjoy Jennifer Jill Araya's great performance as she narrates this tale. You may even find yourself salivating for the peach chutney, and luckily, the recipe is included!

A Fresh Kill

A fun cozy mystery with old friends from book 1.I enjoyed listening to it!Jennifer Jill Araya was a fine narrator. I was given this book by the narrator,author or publisher free for an honest review.

A Sticky Sequel

This sequel was better than the first book! I loved seeing the trio solve a new murder and thought the crime itself was pretty unique. I enjoyed learning more about Stoneybrook’s rival town and the people inside of it. Once again, I really enjoyed the addition of Marisa McClellan’s recipes at the end of the book!
Jennifer did another amazing performance. She had my attention throughout the whole story and brought every character to life!

Enjoying this series

I was given a bonus code to review this book. Thoroughly enjoyed story and narrator.

great crime mystery story

This was easy to listen to, interesting, great character development, and good narration. A little predictable, but still enjoyed it.

Light and Cozy Mystery

A Fresh Kill is an entertaining and light cozy mystery. The characters and mystery are well developed and engaging.

Even Better Than the First Story

I really enjoyed the first Stoneybook mystery so much that I immediately started listening to A Fresh Kill, which is the second mystery in the series.

I thought I had this mystery figured out from the very beginning. I was so close but did not have it. It was very well written. I thought the character building was great. It built well on the first book. Suze (Hadley's best friend) is secretly dating Hadley's twin brother. Luke and Hadley start to have more interactions. The real estate lady who seems more obsessed with playing matchmaker then selling houses is hilarious. Hadley gets her dream home. Everything about this story is so sweet, and I just loved that I literally thought I had the killer correct until the last few sentences. Scott throws in a very slight but great twist at the end. I really cannot wait to listen to the third book!

Jennifer Jill Araya is an amazing narrator. She pegs these characters so well with her voices and really brings them to life. I feel like I am smack dab in the middle of Stoneybrook.

More Mystery in Stoneybrook

A Fresh Kill is the second book in the Stoneybrook Mystery series. In this installment Haley seeks to sell her home, deals with her ex-husband's return to town, and tries to uncover a mystery her twin brother and best friend are hiding. Amidst this excitement, a florist from the neighboring rival town is murdered by bee sting at the local weekly outdoor market. Implicated are two of Haley's friends and a cast of other potential suspects. Once again, Haley and friends investigate the crime. In the mean time, Haley and Luke look at houses.

As with the first installment, this story provides an excellent cozy mystery with twists and turns, humor, friendship and small town drama.

Jennifer Jill Araya once again provided an excellent narration.

I will be loading up the next audiobook in this series!
