Murder at Lowry House

Hazel Martin Mysteries, Book 1

By: Leighann Dobbs

Narrated by: Alison Larkin

When mystery novelist Hazel Martin receives a secretive letter from an old friend who suspects her relatives have murderous intentions, she packs her bags and heads to the country.

Tampered medications, symptoms of poisoning, and suspicious accidents all add up to attempted murder, and it's up to Hazel and her Siamese cat, Dickens, to sniff out the clues. But with a house full of relatives who all have motives, will Hazel be able to unmask the culprit before things turn deadly?

USA Today best-selling author Leighann Dobbs brings back the spirit of the golden age of mysteries in this classic whodunit set in the 1920s.

I loved it

I've listened to several books my Leigh Ann Dobbs. This is one of my favorites.

Hazel is invited to Lowry House for a birthday party. Unfortunately someone is trying to kill the birthday lady. Hazel is on the case with her bossy car dickens. lol Will she find the killer in time?

Enjoyable cozy mystery.

I would recommend this for someone looking for a cozy mystery in a historic setting with appealing characters. The narration was quite good as well. The mystery is less of a focus; more appealing for the Jazz age country house setting.

Boring

I don’t know if it was the story or the narrator.
It just couldn’t hold my attention.
I think the basic plot was good, but the story was boring.

even better narrated

I read the book and found it just ok, then I purchased the audible version, don't ask why, and I enjoyed it 100 times more. glad I gave it a second chance.

Great start to a new series

This was a great start to a new series. The characters are well developed and likable. I highly recommend this to cozy mystery fans.
