The Diva Poaches a Bad Egg

A Domestic Diva Mystery, Book 18

De: Krista Davis

Narrado por: Hillary Huber

Stylish brunches are all the rage this autumn in Old Town Alexandria, and everyone's posting their parties on social media. But while Domestic Diva Sophie Winston juggles her event-filled calendar, she's approached by local designer Mitzi Lawson—who is afraid someone is following her. The very next day Mitzi loses her best friend and business partner, Denise. The two were renovating a generations-old house where Denise died unexpectedly, and Mitzi fears that it wasn't a medical condition to blame, but murder.

It could just be the shock talking, but Sophie agrees to help Mitzi involve the police. Then she receives a panicked phone call from Mitzi, and when she rushes to the old house, Mitzi is nowhere to be found. Now Sophie's appetite for investigation is piqued even more than her appetite for eggs Benedict and mimosas.

Could Denise's death be connected to her viper's nest of in-laws or the house she was working on which her husband just inherited? What of the self-proclaimed etiquette expert with some improper secrets, or the scheming mistress? Or does the old house harbor secrets of its own? There's a generous buffet of suspects to keep the Diva scrambling for an answer....

Loved this book!

I pre-ordered this book on audio and finished it in 1 day. It is one of my favorites of the entire series. I also love the narration by Hillary Huber.

Great Diva Story!

Hilary Huber is the perfect narrator for these stories. This is a great story with a good balance of history and suspense. I hated to see it come to s close!! Also fun that Holly Miller dropped in!

Kept me guessing until the end

I really love this series. but I think that this one is a favorite. I went through 3 possible killers before I got to the right one. But what I loved the most about this one was the information about Mars' Aunt Faye. That was so thrilling. Another wonderful story with excellent narration.

Another amazing read!

I can never get enough of these stories, they are such a quick read! I love the characters and their relationships throughout each book, it's like I personally know them. The recipes throughout the story add so much warmth. Hilary Huber brings the story to life!

Consistent story telling

Krista Davis is one of my very favorites because she so consistently delivers entertaining content that is not too cheesy, spicy or boring. I really care about her characters and I’m really enjoying the old town Alexandria setting too.

Interesting plot twists!

I absolutely LOVE this group of friends!
Of all the books I listen to, this is the group of friends I’d love to live near & hang out with!!!
You’ll just never guess who committed these murders— although you’ll think you have it figured out. So enjoy the ride. The only thing I dislike about these books is that they end much too soon!

That all the diva’s played a special part including Officer Wong.

I disliked that Sofia hasn’t lost her weight and that Marshal and Sofie haven’t rekindle their marriage.

Really good book

Really good book. Can’t wait for the next one. Finished it in less than a day

Fun fun fun!

I’ve been waiting for the next book in this series and it didn’t disappoint! Narration was perfect again! Loved it.

Another fun listen from this duo!

Narrator brings great writing to life! If you’ve enjoyed earlier books in series you’ll enjoy this one!
