Very much enjoyed this story. I had trouble with the start - I suppose it was too many characters for an audiobook. Since I bought as a whispersync, I restarted following along with the ebook for about 1/3 of the book. Then the rest was good. Narrator excellent although I had to increase volume a little.

Very enjoyable. A series I look forward to diving into more. Light and cozy with just enough history and mystery.
