Story
Most Sinful residents are unaware of Carter’s crisis and are going about their daily lives as they always have, including local prankster Gage Babin. Except this time, Gage’s attempt to elicit laughs leaves him on a slab in the medical examiner’s office. Everyone knows how unhealthy he was, but Fortune thinks there’s more to his death than a poorly timed prank that caused his bad heart to give out.

Story
Clare Cosi used to manage the historic Village Blend coffeehouse…until she opted for quieter pastures and a more suburban life. But after ten years and a little friendly cajoling from the owner (a fresh pot of Jamaican Blue Mountain was all it took), she's back to the grind. With a sprawling rent-free apartment directly above the Village Blend, her cat Java by her side, and plenty of coffeehouse redecorating ideas, Clare is thrilled to return to work. Until she discovers the assistant manager unconscious in the back of the store, coffee grounds strewn everywhere.

Publisher's Summary
It was a hell of a long shot....
CIA assassin Fortune Redding is about to undertake her most difficult mission ever - in Sinful, Louisiana. With a leak at the CIA and a price placed on her head by one of the world's largest arms dealers, Fortune has to go off-grid, but she never expected to be this far out of her element. Posing as a former beauty queen turned librarian in a small bayou town seems worse than death to Fortune, but she's determined to fly below the radar until her boss finds the leak and puts the arms dealer out of play.
Unfortunately, she hasn't even unpacked a suitcase before her newly inherited dog digs up a human bone in her backyard. Thrust into the middle of a bayou murder mystery, Fortune teams up with a couple of seemingly sweet old ladies whose looks completely belie their hold on the little town. To top things off, the handsome local deputy is asking her too many questions. If she's not careful, this investigation might blow her cover and get her killed. Armed with her considerable skills and a group of elderly ladies the locals dub the Geritol Mafia, Fortune has no choice but to solve the murder before it's too late.

Hilarious Start to a Series!!
I was recommended this book by a family member. I don't think I have ever laughed out loud so very much from reading a book in my life! I'm taking the dog for a walk, listening to this story and suddenly start laughing, sometimes can't stop. People have a tendency to stare. But it's totally worth it!! I would highly recommend this entire series to read or listen to. Light and funny!

What an Adventure!
Book one in what is probably my favourite series ever. The characters are brilliant, the dialogue is sarcasm at it's best. Best of all is Cassandra Campbell's narration. She is the voice I hear in my head when I read these books in print.

A short and fun listen
This book is very good levity if one needs a break from heavier stories or demanding nonfiction topics. The writing is good and the humour just flows naturally. Enjoyable.

Louisiana Longshot
I was looking for a low stakes pass of my time and this seemed like a good pick. Overall it was a pleasant read and had familiar cliches you could see coming a mile out, and the secondary characters were entertaining. If you're okay with these, you'll enjoy the book.
******SPOILERS******
But if you're like me and can't "switch your brain off" for certain tropes, here are the ones this book made me cringe:
- The MC thinks having long hair, being a librarian, liking makeup is apparently anti-feminist and "sets the movement back 10 years".
- Despite working for an intelligence agency, despite being in a kind of "off the books" witness protection, the MC does not effectively lay low, blend in, or try to be forgettable in personality. I get wanting to be yourself and not taking bullshit. But if you're trying to lay low, antagonising people, especially the local law enforcement, is usually a bad idea.
- MC frequently reaches for her gun for obviously innocuous phenomena. A weak senior dog that another character already mentioned was around. Her usually short-haired reflection with long extensions. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- MC almost murders a FROG on her first night because she can't sleep through the croaking, in Lousiana. She also litters into the bayou more than once.
These really annoyed me, but the story was entertaining and short enough that I got through to the end. The secondary characters were so much more interesting than the MC and the MC's narration and they were what kept me going. They're a pair of much older women who are clever, quick with wry jokes, they're self sufficient and extremely good at Taking Care of Business. I want to know their history. I genuinely would've enjoyed a whole book that starred them.
I'm not entirely sure I'll continue with this series, but on the light hearted entertainment front, this book certainly delivered.

Love the book, dislike the voice
This is one of my favourite book series, but honestly, the voice actor made this impossible to listen to. Awful accents. Couldn’t get past listening more than 30 mins. Unfortunate. But read the books!

Good story
I listened to this while walking the dog over several days. It was a great story and kept me entertained even though some of the plot ideas I could see in advance. It was a great lesson thoroughly enjoyed it.

Love Sinful!
I have read this series twice, and was so excited to find the audiobooks! The narrator definitely didn't disappoint. It really felt like I was sitting around the table with Fortune, Gertie, and Ida Bell. I can't wait to listen to the rest!

Really just a ton of fun :)
Oh man, talk about an unexpected treat! They mystery element was okay, pretty standard fare and nothing too complex, but the characters were a blast and I had a ton of fun with their interactions and development with the main character. Plus the narrator did a great job with all of them, which of course is always half the battle to make any audio book worth listening to. Absolutely going to be getting the next in the series!

Never saw the old ladies coming
I took a gamble on this one, unsure of what I’d get exactly. And it turned out to be right up my alley. I loved the humour, I love Fortune who just keeps having to ask “How did I end up in this scenario?” And I LOVE the Sinful Ladies. I fully encourage anyone that enjoys a light hearted mystery to give this a try, as the different layers keep you hooked in. Definitely going onto the next book
