The Sweet Tea Quilting Bee

By: Glenda Manus

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Sam and Valerie Owens, owners of the Banty Hen Antique Shop, find themselves entangled in a murder investigation after being the last ones to see the victim alive. Valerie’s new venture, the Sweet Tea Quilting Bee is comprised of an eclectic mix of women and their weekly meetings help keep Valerie’s mind off the murder, but it’s hard to keep concealed from the ladies that the victim was killed over, of all things, an antique quilt! The murder suspect has been described as tall and thin, a vague description, but Police Chief Jess Hamilton and his new detective, a self-described Columbo, are on the case, questioning every tall and thin person in town. Even Sister Margaret, a nun who has just begun her mission at St. Gabriel’s Catholic Church, doesn’t go unnoticed. But it’s hard not to notice a nun who dances and sings along with country music when she thinks no one’s watching.

I love this whole series!

Another amazing novel from the talented Glenda C. Manus! This one is a suspense/murder mystery so it's a little different than the others. Love getting to visit with the characters from the Southern Grace series!!!

Fake AI voice

Good storyline but the fake AI voice made it hard to listen. I enjoyed the quilting aspect since I am a quilter.

The mystery

The only thing I found that needed improvement was the narration. Totally lacking in expressions.
I will probably not buy another book narrated by the same person.

The "reader" of this book.

The reader, whilst it sounded real, was not. There was no emotion in the reading, no subtle voice changes, nothing like that. Mispronounced words (Ms. became mmms). I kept listening because I was interested in the story, but it wasn't enjoyable to listen.

I would have rather had a person read the book. The book had a good story line.
