Murder Goes to Market

Claudia Simcoe Series, Book 1

By: Daisy Bateman

Narrated by: Callie Beaulieu

Claudia Simcoe has left the tech world of San Francisco to start a new, quiet life in the peaceful coastal town of San Elmo Bay. Now she owns a market specializing in artisanal, locally-made goods. But then Lori Roth, one of her market's vendors, is strangled to death with a wire. And all of a sudden San Elmo stops seeming so peaceful. Especially when suspicion for the murder falls upon Claudia.

Things don't get any simpler when a second victim turns up. The body count is rising, and Police Chief Lennox thinks Claudia's the killer. There's friction between her and her weirdo neighbor. Lori's past yields some worrisome questions. A massive pickle jar seems to have played a role in the murder. And as if things weren't complicated enough, Officer Derek Chambers, Chief Lennox's new hire, is pretty cute.

A confusing modern who done it

Well written enjoyable adventure about A small town, new residents mysteries murders and Berry.Picking nicely written good voices to listen to.

Decent listen

It was a good story as was the narrator.
I will for sure continue the series.

3 and a half maybe 4

Murder Goes to Market is okay but the pace is slow. I might get the next one.

The geese!

I like the setting since
I have enjoyed road trips north of Napa along the coast. The combination of characters is just right with focus on one central character.
