Cassie Coburn Mysteries Books 1, 2 and 3 Boxed Set

A British Cozy Mystery Series

By: Samantha Silver

Narrated by: Patricia Santomasso

When Cassie Coburn moved to London, she never thought she'd be involved in a quadruple homicide.

After a car accident ended her medical career before it even started, Cassie moved to London on a whim, expecting to see the sights and live the typical tourist backpacker lifestyle.

Instead she finds herself accompanying a French private detective, Violet Despuis, as they attempt to find out who poisoned four people in the middle of London.

Cassie's life soon includes this crazy detective, an ancient landlady with a curious past, a mischievous orange cat who likes going for walks on a leash, and a super hot pathologist that Cassie is sure is out of her league.

And they haven't even found the murderer yet...

Follow Cassie through the streets of London in this boxed set containing the following novels by Samantha Silver: Poison in Paddington, Bombing in Belgravia and Whacked in Whitechapel.

Always recommend by me

I love this series and will recommend it to anyone who has audible it’s so different than other murder mysteries and I enjoyed so much 10/10 amazing reading and story

loved it !! nice easy read mystery

I tried this series / author randomly. I love murder mystery thrillers but reading them back to back like I tend to do can really do a number on your mind.
This "cozy mystery" is just what I wanted and needed. Great stories and a few fun LOL moments. Well worth the money/credit
The narration is just fantastic. Sometimes English accents in audible books drive me bonkers (being originally from the UK) but she did an amazing job.
Having only read the first book in this box set I already have the next box set purchased and will be buying the rest

Interesting and surprising!

I enjoyed this …a great performance!
The stories were interesting and very believable. Kept me listening to the end.

Fun Stories

Three great stories and a wonderful narrator! Loved these books and will definitely listen to the rest of the series.

Fun and Uniqur

I have listened to thw whole series and it is excellent, entertaining and different. Start at the beginning and listen to them all. They will make you smile and even laugh!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THESE BOOKS

So, I have discovered recently that I really enjoy cozies with a mixture of American and British accents. This series gets bonus points for adding a French accent, as well. Cassie is a very relatable character - smart but not always self assured. Violet is almost a characature of an arrogant French woman, very much like a female Hercule Poirot. She denies it, saying she is not Belgian, but I can almost hear Poirot speaking of his little gray cells when Violet speaks. Their adventures are fun. Their repertoire natural. Their relationship enjoyable. Oh, and, yes, there is a cute guy.

New story line

Fun to listen to. Not the same old thing. Cute realistic characters. New plots. Really enjoyable !

Entirely listenable

Samantha Silver obviously is an Agatha Christie fan, and her Violet Despuis is an obvious take on Christie’s Hercule Poirot. That said, Silver’s enchanting French detective is charming, with an ego the size of Texas, but earned through classic logic and keen observation.

Silver’s story is well-written with an occasional grammar glitch, like missing objective pronouns about every third prepositional phrase and getting subjunctive mood wrong—along with most moderns. But Silver’s imagination is entertaining and her crises believable, even if the relaxed association with the police is unlikely.

But we like Cassie and Violet, and their adventures enough to overlook those minor mistakes.

Patricia Santomasso does a good job, adept at a host of accents and male and female tones, without a flaw.

We’ll move on to the rest of the series. It’s a welcome Cozy find.

Great series’s!!

Very enjoyable, I highly recommend. Great for any age from teen to adult. I can’t wait to read more in the series.

Cute Sherlock-inspired cozy!

I read a few reviews that said this series was good, so I took the plunge and bought them (3 books for 1 credit is a good deal).
These 3 stories are really pretty great - obviously inspired by/ an homage to Sherlock Holmes, but fun and modern, using women as the protagonists. If you love Sherlock Holmes, and cozy mysteries- you'll love these!
