À propos de cet audio

Welcome to Daisy Thorne's Ooh La La hair salon in the charming village of Edgemead in Surrey, England, where you'll find the latest styles, the juiciest gossip - and the most tantalizing murder clues....

No one would ever accuse famous opera star Dame Serena Levante of lacking a flare for the dramatic. Unfortunately, it's curtains down on the dysfunctional diva when she's found dead at the bottom of a staircase in her elegant home. Solving an opera singer's murder may not be the typical hairdresser's aria of expertise. But Dame Serena was the mother of Daisy's best friend Floria, so Daisy must do-or-dye her best to get to the roots of the case.

When a priceless Modigliani painting in the house is reported missing, the mystery gets even more tangled. Even though the gruff but handsome Detective Inspector Paul McGuinness tells the stylist to stay out of his hair, Daisy is determined to make sure the killer faces a stern makeover - behind bars.

I thought for sure I’d figured out who the big “surprise killer” was very early on, but I was definitely happy to be wrong! The story was well written and engaging with a main character I immediately was drawn to - so I’m thrilled that there’s a series with her I can follow this up with.
My only criticism was with the narrator attempting to do a variety of accents for different characters. The accents would change or be dropped entirely at times and the French, Indian, Spanish, and especially the Italian accents would often end up sounding like a Dracula impersonation. I also can’t imitate an accent to save my life, so this isn’t coming from a hateful place, I would have just preferred there to be no accents if it wasn’t the narrators strong suit as I tended to hyper-focus on it once I picked up on it.
Very much worth a listen though. I look forward to more from this author as this was my first time listening to her.
