Knitted and Knifed

A Knitty Kitties Mystery, Book 1

De: Tracey Drew

Narrado por: Sarah Mollo-Christensen

Wanted: Cat mum to manage a yarn store, corral two curious cats, all the while being tangled up in murderous mayhem and mystery.

A smart woman would dump her cheating ex, move from the city, and give herself a chance for a well-deserved do-over. A smarter woman - smarter than me, anyway - wouldn’t jump out of that same frying pan and return to Cape Discovery, a seaside village where her family is the nuttiest of all the nut-ball residents.

I’m a former high school counselor, middle-child peacemaker, and current curator of lots of squishy/fuzzy goodness at my granddad’s little yarn store; a temporary assistant until I decide what to do with the rest my life. There’s only one knotty problem to untangle first: the knife sticking out of the most unpopular man in town, and the police detective trying to pin the murder on the donkey - otherwise known as my younger brother.

With a pair mischievous cats determined to be underfoot and a craft group of serial knitters and happy hookers wanting the inside scoop, a girl could lose her mind. And if the killer has their way, maybe even my life....

Tessa Wakefield has her hands full juggling a cozy craft store, her crazy family, and two men who’d rather poke out their eyes than describe themselves as cute, which they totally are. Cute, charismatic, and occasionally on her mind when she’s not stumbling over dead bodies and using her newfound sleuthing skills to track down murderers. Lucky she’s an excellent multi-tasker...because digging beneath Cape Discovery’s surface can unearth secrets that kill.

Cute Story

Liked the story and the mystery with the mischievous cats but the accent of the narrator was difficult for me to understand. Would like to listen to more in the series but the narrator is stopping me from doing so at this time. Maybe I will check it out later to see if I can understand the accent better.

The outcome was great

Took me a little longer to find out whodunnit but I like the guessing part

cute kitty mystery

The storyline is well developed with believable and likeable characters. The cats add a nice touch. the storyline maintains your interest throughout. it is a great quick read. The narration is done in a way to keep your interest. I recommend this book.

Loved it going to buy the next one have to know how the kitties get along

I love this

I bought the paper book version last month ,but being busy I didn't have time to read it. I discovered my love for auto books now. I finished crocheting my market bag when I finished it.
The story kept me wondering what happened next and fantastic ending to the story. The man voices Sarah did make laugh quite a bit ,but I quickly got used to it. I love both of kitties cute personalities. Tessa is relatable with me being absolute goof at times as well. I'm looking forward to the rest of the books and maybe what seems to be two possible love interests for her in the future.

Narration is hard on the ears

I have no idea how well this story was written as I didn't get far. My ears were bleeding halfway through the first chapter, but I was forced to play the entire chapter before I could leave a review.

The narrators whispery voice pronounced almost every other word in an upward intonation. Quite monotone and made it hard for me to focus on the story. The synopsis sounded like a cute story, and I'm sad that I couldn't even force myself to continue listening.

In this case, the sample narration is probably not enough for you to really get a feel for the narrator.

Witty, funny knitting cozy mystery- from New Zealand

Wonderful narrator and Tessa (the main character) is like the best friend you’d live to have. Warm and quirky characters in a lovely setting.

And funny - dry tongue in cheek to out right broad humor - I loved every minute. Can’t wait for book two after the preview - keep ‘em coming! 10 stars!

Loved it!

What a great fun laugh out loud experience! If you love Janet Evanovich you are going to love this! Great story, great characters all put together with an amazing performance by Sarah Mollo-Christensen!

Different but familiar

vibes of Agatha Raisin in New Zealand; but unlike Beaton's Agatha, Tessa is actually likeable (and not narcissistic)

An interesting / entertaining Cozy

I was impressed with this new Cozy. The Story - Setting- and Characters are well written by Tracey Drew. Sarah Mollo-Christensen's narration is excellent. I will be purchasing more books in this series and hopefully enjoy them as much as I have this first book.

Keep up the great work.
