Death by Chocolate Raspberry Scone

A Death by Chocolate Mystery, Book 7

De: Sarah Graves

Narrado por: Suzie Althens

With the August heat strong enough to melt solid chocolate into syrup, Jake and Ellie crave a break from the bakery ovens, despite tourist season promising a sweet payday. But they never envisioned spending the last weeks of summer drifting around Passamaquoddy Bay searching for pirate’s treasure—and a dead body.

Sally Coates believes her husband was murdered off the coast, and begs Ellie, a trusted childhood friend, to locate his remains. It’s unusual that a skilled fisherman would vanish along with the gold doubloon he inherited from his grandfather. And Sally isn’t the only one coveting the valuable heirloom for her own.

As Jake and Ellie’s island-hop for answers, they find themselves caught between hungry sharks and hungrier suspects. Can the duo tempt fate and dodge danger before there’s blood in the water—or are they destined to fall into the jaws of a killer’s trap?

Fun Mystery!!!

I liked the humor, and the characters plus the plot was great!! It held my attention from beginning to end!!

The Best Yet!!!

This audiobook was a roller coaster ride and I loved every minute of it!!
The new narrator was great!
Can’t wait for the next one!

Voice Actor Changes Disappointing

Voice Actor Changes Disappointing I love every piece written by this author. I've listened to every audible piece she's had available, the fact they changed the voice actors to people without a New England accent was highly disappointing!

Complex

Took me a bit to get used to the narrator’s voice. I’ve listened to other Sarah graves books and loved those narrators

More great storylines -

I love Sarah Graves books.
This one had us questioning cons or mischief or missing dead people or . . . . and when I still had over an hour of listening time go I wondered what more could there be other than the ‘tying up all the varying storylines - which was done well.
Then another burst of unforeseen action ensued

The narrator did very well - I wasn’t sure I would like this change in narrators at this time, but was pleasantly pleased.

The only repetitive phrase I eventually tired of was ‘and did I mention . . . . but it did get the info out there. And is Jake having more struggles being brave and is her strength wavering - as Ellie seems to remain strong - because she’s aging or settling in to a comfy life with family and friends that she’s losing some of that ‘go get ‘em’ strength she has had?
Just some thoughts as I continue to enjoy these stories.
Love this continuing series and looking forward to more books!!
And thanks for the recipe in the end - love all the baking hints and helps hinted at throughout.

Excellent story

Had a hard time getting into the new narrated voice. But eventually ok by nearly the end.

Another great book!

I really enjoyed this book. it was just as good as the others. I wish tho they had used the other narrator from the other books. But this one did do a good job.

bad production

you can hear every inhaled breath the narrator takes. very annoying, the company that produced this isnt very good. story is ok. narrator actual voice is ok.

Graves - lost her edge

I couldn’t get used to the new narrator. Story made no sense, sharks? An addition on the house ? Missing toddler and they take a champagne picnic? Jake is more focused on sleuthing than on finding her grandkid. I’ll keep buying Grave’s novels but it just feel like this was written by a ghost writer.

I miss the old narrator

I usually love this series, but for some reason I didn't enjoy this one as much. also, the narrator's voice was too unexciting.
