A Bidder End

Antiques & Collectibles Mysteries Series, Book 7

De: Ellery Adams, Parker Riggs

Narrado por: Andi Arndt

In the world of antiques and collectibles, it helps to have a sharp eye for quality, a good ear for gossip, and a nose for murder.

When a retired Hollywood A-lister decides to auction off part of his enviable collection of antiques, reporter Molly Appleby is thrilled to be covering the event for Collector's Weekly, and she's certain it will secure the reputation of the dealer handling it, a friend of hers. But soon after the final gavel comes down, the actor's secretary vanishes and the antiques dealer is found dead, apparently having taken his own life. Molly's not sold on the coroner's verdict of suicide, though, and she can't help but start digging for clues to what she suspects is foul play.

As she begins to delve into the private life of her friend and his connections with the actor's staff, Molly slowly discovers that the dealer was far more unscrupulous than she ever imagined and that nearly everyone who knew him had a motive for murder. And when another body turns up and the devious killer begins leaving mysterious clues to taunt Molly and the police, Molly finds herself facing a cunning culprit who wants to see her going, going, gone....

Excellent

Great story! I highly recommend this book! This story Keeps you guessing until the end.

5 Stars

I love this series and was so happy to see an audiobook version of this book available. Like in all of Ellery Adam's books, the mystery is well planned and there are lots of interesting characters.

A good one

Finally Molly is maturing, this was a good one, it was a quick, well paced listen as Molly investigates the alleged suicide of her friend.

Good mystery

I am on a quest to listen to every audiobook that Andi Arndt narrates and this book was another very enjoyable listen.

Enjoyable but…

I have listened to the prior 6 in this series. I enjoy the novels. They are a little formulaic but entertaining.

My one gripe with Book 7 in the series is the accent for Lombardi…stick to the original accent instead of going between that and the bad Northeastern accent

Good Story

I have enjoyed every book I have listened to in the series. I like the author’s style of storytelling. The narrator is on of my favorites and she makes it easy to follow the story.

Too short!

Couldn't believe I was at the end already. Good story, as usual. I always thought it would be cool to be the average person caught up in a mystery or spy story.

Movie Stars and Antique Firearms

I love this series and this installment is no exception. I enjoy hearing about Molly, her husband, Matt and little son, Tyler, as well. When Molly's friend, Brett is found dead and the police are calling it a suicide, Molly disagrees . . . and as usual, she goes about investigating the death to see what she can discover. A great cozy mystery and series that I will continue.
