It's all good

This was a truly enjoyable cozy mystery. The characters were interesting, the writing was good, and the narration was appropriate. I normally think of a "cozy" mystery as having more humor and lightness but that is not a criticism, just an observation. I think the narrator was particularly good - just the right tone and easy to listen to.

I looked for the second book because I wanted to buy and keep going with the series - too bad it isn't out yet.

I did receive this book for free but that did not influence my review (check out my other reviews and you can see that I will call it like I see it!).

I can't wait to see what happens next! she is an amazing character and strikes me as relatable to many. the story made me think, laugh and think grrr. the narration was fantastic and I would suggest it to anyone who likes a little murder mystery.

Cute short story

Would you listen to Girl in the Shadows again? Why?

Yes, because it has lots of content. I will listen to it again.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Girl in the Shadows?

When she is running in her spike heels on the grass. Every woman knows what that is like.

Have you listened to any of Tiffany Williams’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No this is the first time I have listened to Tiffany Willams but her performance was excellent here.

Any additional comments?

This is a great book; this is the first book in the Diamond Files Mystery series written by Angela Pepper and narrated by Tiffany Williams. Abby Silver is a temp secretary with a super memory. When she's assigned to work with an unusual detective, Abby discovers she likes investigative work. No, she loves it. Within a week, she's helping her boss (and his trusty beagle, Chewie) chase down a murder suspect. Literally. Hijinx ensue!

The narrator Tiffany Williams did a wonderful job with this book. She did a great job with the different voices of each character in this book. It was very easy to listen to and I didn’t want to stop listening until the end.

If you are looking for a great book with well-developed characters then you need to listen to this book. I am looking forward to listening to the next book by this author and narrator.
