Never underestimate older women!!

These two sisters are as different as can be--and do get into squabbles on occasion. They took a road trip in Max's Studebaker to visit Lil's son and his family-along with Max's dog. While there a woman is found dead in an old house which was going to be used for a fund raiser. These two just could not let it go--they had to figure it out.-much to the distress of Lil's son and the police! They were quite good but did get in a bit of trouble which left Lil walking with a walker! I actually never read this as an e-book but it certainly kept my attention! The narrator did a really good job when reading-I was able to picture all that was happening.

Kept on the edge of my seat

Audio Review
I’m fairly new to Cozy Mysteries and audio books so both the author Karen Musser Northman and Kathleen Godwin are new to me but after listening to this entertaining book I will be checking out previous works by both.
Max and her sister Lil are very different but the one thing they can agree on is they need to investigate the murder they came across while visiting Lil’s sons family. The murder takes place in a haunted house that is being used as a fundraiser and this mystery brought the whole haunted house memories to life. This story kept me on the edge of my seat as I followed the clues to find the murderer, the story was entertaining, the narration was spot on and Ms Godwin did a great job bringing the book to life. If you love a good mystery with lots of secrets and suspense look no further than Foliage and Fatality (the Mystery Sisters Book 2).

Entertaining cozy mystery

Both the author Karen Musser Nortman and narrator Kathleen Godwin are new to me. This is a cozy mystery and one that I found entertaining. I was intrigued as I followed the clues trying to guess the murderer before Lil and her sister Max.

I had a hard time warming up to Max, she seemed rather judgemental. She and Lil are as different as chalk and cheese, however one thing they agree on is that they need to investigate the murder that takes place at the haunted house that Lil’s son is using as a fundraiser.

The narrator really brought this book to life for me and did a good job keeping me entertained. This was a a book filled with a lot of secrets and the intrigue and suspense kept me riveted as I listened to this story.

Fun mystery series!

Fun, cozy mystery! This series is so much fun! Great characters and so much fun along the way. Sisters Max and Lil are at it again! They are off on a new adventure, this time traveling through Pennsylvania. They want to enjoy the fall foliage and visit Lily’s son Terry and his family. But then somebody dies, and Max and Lily can’t stop themselves from doing a little investigating on their own.

Fun

What a fun and charming story. My first time listening to this author and loved it. Look forward to hearing more. Good mystery.
