Photo Finished

A Snapshot of NYC Mystery, Book 1

By: Christin Brecher

Narrated by: Kimberly Austin

While some people escape into books or music, Liv Spyers escapes through her camera’s lens, which inspires her to jump into things she might otherwise have no business tackling—like moving to New York City. Hustling to make her dreams come true as a portrait photographer, she runs a pocket-sized studio below her grandparents’ West Village brownstone and key shop, where she also lives and works part-time. All of which still has her down to the end of her savings as the holidays approach. Everything changes in a flash, however, when elite events photographer Regina Montague invites Liv to shoot with her at New York City’s most exclusive socialite event of the year—the Holiday Debutante Ball!

Liv snaps up the opportunity, convinced that a job with Regina will launch her career. But when her fabulous new gig ends with the murder of billionaire Charlie Archibald and Regina framed for the crime, her dream job may never develop. Once Liv begins to focus on her photos from the ball, she’s convinced they reveal Charlie Archibald’s real killer. Now between cracking the world of high society and the attentions of a handsome stranger, she must hustle once again to expose the killer before she gets cropped from the picture!

Fun and Entertaining

Photo Finished is an entertaining and fun cozy mystery with engaging characters and a well written plot. Liv's involvement at the finale was far from believable but it didn't ruin the book. I look forward to the next book.

Great mystery!

Good action and details. Is there a next book. I hope so. For author, character, and narrator.

Engaging Original Story with Likable Characters

What a gem! This was one of my favorite cozy listens ever. The NYC setting and Liv’s career as a photographer offered a refreshing twist on the usual cozy mystery formula. The story moved quickly and kept me engaged throughout. I especially appreciated that Liv was city-smart and resourceful, and the romantic subplot added a fun touch without overshadowing the mystery. The narrator was excellent.
