Murder in Calistoga

De: Dianne Harman

Narrado por: Kasey Logan

Just the thought of being locked in a sauna and dying....

When Nikki Evans is murdered in the sauna at the Serenity Hotel and Spa on opening day, Judy Rasmussen’s dream of owning a premiere hotel and spa in Calistoga, California turns into a nightmare.

Her friend, Liz Lucas, an amateur sleuth who’s come to the hotel and spa for the opening weekend, has to find the killer before the new hotel and spa’s chances for success are ruined by the bad publicity the murder will bring.

But who would want the reunion attendee dead? And what's the motive? Was it her college roommate, who’d never forgotten what Nikki had said about her years ago? Was it Nikki's husband, who resented he had to use her inherited money to pay back the company he’d embezzled from? Was it the winemaker who wanted Judy’s property, so he could grow more grapes? Or was it the owner of La Spa, who didn’t want any new competition in town?

Join Liz and her big boxer guard dog, Winston, as they try to catch the killer, but will they succeed?

This is the seventh book in the popular Liz Lucas Cozy Mystery series by a two-time USA Today best-selling author.

A Really Good Cozy Mystery!

This audiobook is excellent! I give it a five star rating. A boutique hotel, spa, wine, and good food are part of a unique storyline set in Calistoga, CA. Listeners can picture themselves being there, enjoying the delights of a relaxing and scenic vacation.

A group of friends travel to the opening of a small boutique hotel for a destination reunion. Unfortunately, a murder occurs, which certainly puts a damper on their stay. This is a well thought out cozy murder mystery. The characters seem very real.
Several suspects are unveiled, along with possible reasons for committing the murder.

Liz Lucas and her husband are at the hotel for a getaway weekend and help the police with the investigation. Their dog accompanies them and adds to the plot.

I would highly recommend this audiobook to others.

Excellent

MURDER AT CALISTOGA is the 7th in the Liz Lucas series, by Dianne Harman. All can be read separately. Again Dianne doesn't disappoint, those of us, who look forward to the next new book of hers. A spa and beautiful setting for Nikki, to unwind, and ponder what to do. Damon, husband, embellisher, having to move, she paid the money, so he wouldn't go to jail. Now, it seems like she is in jail, with the tension, arguments. We have Napa Valley, wine and gourmet foods, Roger and Liz, enjoying the day. A call from Judy, where they were going to stay later, asking them to come now, a murder. A great plot, as you try to figure out, and enjoying the process of who it was and why. Another delightful audio that captures you from the beginning. Kasey narration was good of bringing the story to life. Well done and enjoyed
