Murder at Cold Creek College

Cold Creek Mysteries, Book 1

By: Christa Nardi

Narrated by: Alyssa Baumann

A dead colleague isn't the best way to start a semester, or a romance.

Although Sheridan Hendley is not a sleuth, when her colleague is murdered, she assists the detective in gathering information. As Sheridan draws connections among the people in Adam’s life, she realizes many women have a strong motive for murder. As information leaks out on Adam’s exploits to college administration, she’s charged with creating sexual harassment training. Slashed tires are the first indication that her curiosity and involvement in the investigation is making someone nervous. The murderer is afraid of what she might have found. In the meantime, as she works closely with the handsome detective, she hopes for romance in her future. Meet Sheridan Hendley and her friends in the first of five cozy mysteries.

Entertaining cozy mystery

Both the author Christa Nardi and narrator Alyssa Baumann are new to me and I am surprised I have not come across this author, in particular before. I enjoy cozy mysteries and Murder At Cold Creek College was an entertaining story that ticked the boxes for me.

Alyssa Baumann did a great job bringing the cast of characters to life for me and certainly added to my listening pleasure. This was a book filled with a number of unexpected situations and although I guessed the guilty parties, it was an entertaining journey.

The characters were engaging, perhaps because Sheridan is a mature woman in her forties and I found her easy to relate to. There were twists, turns and surprises in Murder At Cold Creek College as Sheridan and Brett follow the clues.

I cannot wait to listen to more books from this author.

Great mystery

Great mystery with an ending that I definitely didn’t except. Narration was great. I received a free copy and left my honest review

The Start Of The Series

This was the first book in the "Cold Creek Mysteries" series, and I enjoyed it a lot. I liked that the author has written characters that seemed like they could be real people. The protagonist, Sheridan Hendley, was an intelligent and strong person who became active in a police investigation. It was great that the author featured a heroine who was in her 40's and I appreciated the old-fashioned values that were portrayed in this tale. Alyssa Baumann's narration was fine. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

Wonderful start to the series!

Murder at Cold Creek College is the first book of the Cold Creek mystery series by Christa Nardi. In this book Dr Sheridan Hendley makes her premiere. A fellow professor is killed the week before the semester starts. Sheridan is pushed into the investigation when she’s asked to escort the State Police Detective around by her department chair. That inevitably leads to trouble for Sheridan but they do solve the crime. I’ve read the Sheridan spin-off series and it was good to go back to the beginning. I enjoyed learning a lot about Sheridan’s background and her meeting Brett. Great fun cozy! The narration by Alyssa Baumann is wonderful. Her performance brings the story and characters to life. I received a free copy of the audiobook for my honest review.

Enjoyable listen

Good story and character development. Didn't figure out the killer ahead of time. Looking forward to book two.

So good

This story was so greatly planned out and a fantastic mystery. It was good to listen to how it all began with Sheridan and Brett!

Enjoyable

After a few other mysteries that were just awful, this one was enjoyable. I liked the writing and enjoyed the narrator. And I liked that the killer and the motive were unknown til almost the end

ANOTHER GREAT BOOK

Another great murder mystery series . Christa Nardi has away with writing murder mystery series and will be reading more of her books.. Can't wait till the next one in this series.

Great book

I really enjoyed this book and would definitely recommend. Just when I thought I knew who the killer was, there was a twist to make me rethink it.

Another great mystery

Another great mystery by Crista Nardi. I have listened to other books written by her and have enjoyed them all.

I was given this audibook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
