Synopsis
Jester Falls has always been an idyllic town. Perfect for a getaway. And what better place to stay than Magnolia House, the tourist trap's most popular bed and breakfast, run by the eccentric Channing family. Ruth Channing loves her family—at least what's left of it. She'd do anything to protect them. But it isn't until her brother picks up a mysterious woman on the side of Route 78 that Ruth realizes how many definitions the word anything can have. Everything about Ashley Parker rings false: her past, her profession, even her name. Most worryingly of all, her reluctance to leave. When guests start disappearing, it's clear there's more at stake than just the family business... a lot more.
My Review
The storyline for this book was rather interesting. Its quite a short mystery book. I listened to the audiobook and enjoyed the narrators voice. However, I did struggle when she was reading the males voices. As it didn't sound much different from her voice I lost track of who was talking and started get a little confused. This lead to me not being fully connected with the characters. I felt we need a bit more background or descriptions of the characters to feel a better connection. Im not entirely sure if I lost my attention due to the narrator or that the book just wasn't to my tastes. I just didn't feel the flow of the book at all. But please remember I am just one person if you are a mystery fan then give it a go, try a sample of it first. I just needed a little more attention to detail, atmosphere and tension to give the extra stars. Im still glad I read it as I did enjoy the storyline and I was intrigued enough to finish the book. Thanks to the author and publishers for creating this book and allowing me to read and review it for you all.
