About this listen

 Since she bought her rambling fixer-upper of a house, Jacobia Tiptree has gotten used to finding things broken. But her latest problem isn't so easily repaired. Along with the rotting floor joists and sagging support beams, there's the little matter of the dead man in Jake's storeroom, an ice pick planted firmly in his cranium. Jake's unknown guest turns out to be local boy turned billionaire Threnody McIlwaine. When Jake's best friend, quiet and dependable Ellie White, confesses to the murder, cops and journalists swarm into the snowbound Eastport. Jake smells a cover-up, and begins poking into past history between McIlwaine and Ellie's family. But someone doesn't like nosy neighbors...and Jake's rustic refuge may become her final resting place.©1997 Sarah Graves (P)2009 BBC Audio Mystery Suspense Thriller & Suspense Traditional Detectives Women Sleuths Women's Fiction Fiction Detective Cozy Crime Home Repair Mystery

Kept me guessing! Well written, lots of action and twists. Interesting background information re: location, old house renovation, finance, etc. The narrator did a great job too, brought the characters to life. All in all, a good listen. I look forward to hearing the next book.

Really Good!
