Someone has been collecting secrets...someone is going to pay.

Chloe Martin is finally feeling at home again in Jericho Falls, NV. No one is staring anymore or asking how she's handling being back in town after so many years away. But troubling information surfaces about Police Chief Garner that makes Chloe question everything. And when there's another suspicious death in town, Chloe finds that a collection of secrets might hold the information she needs to solve another mystery in the quaint turn-of-the-century town she now calls home.

A Collection of Secrets picks up where book one, A History of Murder, left off. If you love mysteries set in small towns, with cute sidekick pets and a bit of romance, the Jericho Falls Cozy Mysteries are for you.

Everything you want in a cozy

Brook creates fun and interesting characters with intriguing mystery all in a quant town. Also great narrator makes this a 5 star experience.

very enjoyable story

I really liked this story, the mystery and the characters.
I understand that I was lacking the context of some things, as I didn't read the first book in the series, but it dod not bother me too much, as it sometimes does.
The narrator was good and made the whole experience very enjoyable.
I received a free review copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Fun sequel in a cozy mystery series

Collection of Secrets is a cozy mystery that picks up a few months after the first book ends. There's enough background and character backstory that it could be read as standalone.

The title is a good one. It seemed like everyone has a secret or two that comes out as the plot unfolds, and Chloe's past collides with the present. The threads left hanging in the first story are tied up neatly in this book. I hope that doesn't mean we've seen the last of Chloe and her friends in Jericho Falls!

Chloe has all the best intentions, but she is apt to say or do the wrong thing, especially with the Chief. She learns from her mistakes (and he learns from his) and their slow burn romance progresses. In fact, they find the body while they're on a date. She investigates on her own when she doesn't agree with the Chief's assessment of the circumstances, causing some trouble for him again. Really, he should have learned his lesson the first time and paid attention to her theories! :)

A fun cast of characters, vivid descriptions, great dialogue, and timely clues make the story easy to listen to. The ending was another twist I didn't see coming, which I loved again.

Kristin Hamilton returns to perform the audio version, with different voices for each character. She is perfect for channeling Chloe and bringing the narrative to life.
