Don't Go Home

Death on Demand Mysteries

By: Carolyn Hart

Narrated by: Kate Reading

Annie Darling, owner of the Death on Demand mystery bookstore, is hosting a party to celebrate successful Southern literary icon—and former Broward’s Rock resident—Alex Griffith and his bestselling new novel, Don’t Go Home. But after the local paper announces that Griffith aims to reveal the real-life inspirations behind his characters, perhaps the author should take his own advice. Not everyone in town is ready to give him a glowing review.

As Annie attempts damage control, her friend Marian Kenyon gets in a heated argument with Griffith. It’s a fight Annie won’t soon forget—especially after the author turns up dead.

Despite an array of suspects to match Griffith’s cast of characters—and a promise to her husband, Max, to steer clear of sleuthing—Annie’s not about to let the police throw the book at her friend when the real killer remains at large…

Glad Annie Is Back!

Love this series and the narrator does a wonderful job! This was one of the best!

So so.

Not one of the better installments in the series. Missed the usual mix of the regular characters.

good, slow starting

I missed Max for most of the first half but it did get better the plot was great though.

Bad Guy Down

Well this is one is up and down and then a little side ways. Better than the last book.

Disappointing

Not enough of regulars or bookstore or m. Expected better and too long. Not enough of max Did not seem the same.
