Three Widows and a Corpse

Food Blogger Mystery Series 3

By: Debra Sennefelder

Narrated by: Callie Beaulieu

Food blogger Hope Early finds one item not on her scavenger hunt list - a dead husband...

Between developing her food blog, Hope at Home, and choosing low-cal recipes for a feature in Cooking Now! magazine, Hope has a full plate. Still, she's never too busy to compete in a Jefferson, Connecticut, tradition - the town's annual scavenger hunt.

But as she races with her team to check off the next item, Hope discovers a grisly surprise - the body of shady real estate developer Lionel Whitcomb, shot in a parking lot. His wife Elaine, who's also in the hunt, gasps and nearly faints. But two other women on the scene cry out that their husband is dead.

It turns out this louse of a spouse was more than a little lax in legally divorcing his former wives. Did one of them put a bullet in the bigamist? Number one suspect and number three wife Elaine begs Hope to investigate. Now Hope is on a new kind of hunt - for a cold-hearted killer and triple widow-maker...

Unlikeable protagonist

Anyone who can put together a well-written mystery with an interesting plot and characters has my admiration. when the narrator of an audible book adds to the story, it is even better. All of the above are true of this story. However I found the main character unsympathetic. I would not trust Hope Early, were I to actually meet this fictional character.
