Mansion & Murder: Mrs. Pomolo Investigates

By: Donna Muse

Narrated by: Dean Ruple

Iris Reeve’s young niece, Nanette, invites Iris and Geneva Pomolo to a birthday party at a lavish estate belonging to Leandra Bosworth. Leandra is a society lady renowned in the community for her charitable work, and she is also Nanette’s boss. Iris and Geneva - both of them amateur sleuths - are expecting a relaxing weekend getaway in rural Indiana. But the Bosworth household proves to be anything but relaxing. There’s the aggressive ex-boyfriend who is still hanging around...the daughter who is secretive, anxious, and high-strung...and the teenage granddaughter who seems entirely too invested in boys...

Iris and Geneva hope to quietly slip away after the party, but things take a dark turn when Leandra is found strangled in her office. Everyone at the party has a reason for wanting her dead, and all of them are suspects. As the two women attempt to unpeel the layers of the crime, they uncover mystery after mystery. What exactly has the security guard been doing in the family guest house? What secret is the granddaughter hiding? Who has been blackmailing various members of the Bosworth family? As signs point more and more to Nanette’s role in the murder, Iris and Geneva must work overtime to exonerate her before she’s imprisoned for a crime she didn’t commit.

Fun mystery!

A fun, quick mystery. Enjoyed the story and the narrator's presentation of the quirky characters!

a very active story

First off, I must admit I felt no empathy for Leandra when the story began and most definitely by the end of it. She just wasn't a likable person especially to her family and all her affairs and husbands- WTH!!!?? There are so many secrets and connivers and subplots that my mind was reeling. I had no idea who done it. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job.

A Birthday Party with a surprise

A short cozy mystery that kept me guessing till the end. There were a fair number of suspects, but I’m not sure enough background was given to actually figure it out on our own. As the details were revealed, everything made perfect sense.

Donna Muse has created an interesting amateur sleuth in Geneva Pomolo. I’ll be checking out more of her cozy mysteries.

This was my first listen by Dean Ruple and I really enjoyed it. I’m sure I’ll be checking out more of his performances.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.
