Nest Egg

Aloha Chicken Mysteries, Book 1

By: Josi Avari

Narrated by: Angie Hickman

A 2019 Whitney Awards finalist.

Hens and homicides in a cozy slice of paradise.

Saffron Skye has inherited a little piece of Hawaiian paradise. Only it's filled with the leftovers of her late uncle's life and overrun with his enormous flock of chickens. When her new friend, the oldest man in town, dies, no one else finds it suspicious. But as the town's newest poultry keeper, Saffron recognizes "fowl" play when she sees it.

Saffron is a tetrachromat and can see colors nobody else can see. If only she could do the same with killers.

To find the culprit - and the victim's hidden fortune - Saffron will have to look in some surprising places. Even her new flock will lend a wing.

With scrumptious island food galore and two handsome men vying for her attention, Saffron has to focus, crack a few eggs...and crack the case.

Nice narrator

What about words that really didn’t aid that much in the descriptions Dry slow moving. Very flowery

Good beginning to the series

The characters were likable without a lot of cliche. The characters are also very interesting with good stories all on their own.

Good one for several reasons.

Good one. Smooth and evocative. I didn’t expect to like a story about an egg farm so much!

5 stars

Nest Egg is my first book by Josi Avari but it won't be my last. The characters are well developed and the mystery is well plotted. There are several twists and turns and the mystery is intriguing. I really enjoyed this book and look forward to the next book.

Enjoyed it

I admit I love chickens but also love the plot. I will listen to the rest in the series.
