A funny cozy mystery series full of bold women, a quirky and lovable town, and one seriously hopeless romance.

It's been one helluva morning....

And Hope hasn't even found the body.

At least not yet.

After a 12-year absence, investigative reporter Hope Walker is back home.

In Hopeless, Idaho.

And it's not going well.

It seems the town and its citizens haven't changed much.

Still weird. Still nosy. And a few of them?

Downright hateful.

And now Hope has a serious problem.

Because one of the hateful is dead.

And she's the prime suspect.

I enjoyed the story, setting (Idaho), and the characters. I liked that the narration was anamiated, however some of the characters voices were "screeching". This is the first book I have read by Daniel Carson and I am looking forard to book 2 in this series.

Enjoyable read.

I listen to audio books A LOT. This was excellent. I had read this when it came out and have enjoyed reading the series. Decided to try the audio version. It was like hearing the book for the first time! It just came to life! Looking forward to hearing the rest of the series!

A great escape from daily life, this immersive Daniel Carson story and fantastic narration transporter me to Hopeless through a surprisingly light and funny story of murder, heartbreak, job loss and coming home.

Thanks for taking me away!

Loved this book!

While a bit cheesy at times with respect to dialogue, the development of the characters as the story moved along was outstanding! Not only do we get to know the characters we get to know them in a manner that made me believe I’d known them a long time. Well done!
