Historia
Recently widowed Jillian Hart is rebuilding a life for herself and her three beloved cats - Chablis, Syrah, and Merlot - as a quilter in a small South Carolina town. The quilts she makes are for cats as smart, special, and sweet as her own, and business is thriving. But when she returns from an overnight quilting show, she discovers Chablis sneezing - and since Chablis is allergic to humans, that can only mean one thing: Someone has broken into her house. When she realizes her Abyssinian, Syrah, is missing, Jillian suspects catnapping. Spurred by Chablis and Merlot’s mournful meowing, she investigates - and discovers more missing cats and a murder.

Historia
The remains of five women lie within, each one buried with a bridal veil...and without her ring finger. Once an award-winning journalist, Carson knows her career is now hanging by a thread. This story has pulled her out of a pit of alcohol and self-loathing, and with justice and redemption in mind she begins to investigate. Days later two more bodies appear, begging the question... Is a copycat murderer terrorizing Biloxi, or has a serial killer awoken from a 25-year slumber?

Historia
Ellery Hathaway knows a thing or two about serial killers, but not through her police training. She's an officer in sleepy Woodbury, Massachusetts, where a bicycle theft still makes the newspapers. No one there knows she was once victim number 17 in the grisly story of serial killer Francis Michael Coben. The only victim who lived. When three people disappear from her town in three years, all around her birthday - the day she was kidnapped so long ago - Ellery fears someone knows her secret. Someone very dangerous.

When Mattie Winston catches her husband, Dr. David Winston, receiving some very special loving care from RN Karen Owenby, she quits her job and moves out. Mattie's best friend, Izzy, offers her a place to stay and suggests she'd be a natural as deputy coroner. Now, instead of taking patients' pulses, Mattie's weighing their hearts and livers. But Mattie's first homicide call turns out to be for none other than Nurse Karen, and even though she saw her ex in a heated argument with the newly deceased the night before, she refuses to believe David could be a killer.

Historia
Alan Gregory is a clinical psychologist with a thriving practice in Boulder, Colorado. His life begins to unravel when one of his female patients is found in an apparent suicide and the local paper begins printing accusations from an unnamed source of sexual impropriety between the woman and Dr. Gregory. He launches a psychological and personal quest for the truth that rapidly intensifies when more of his patients die untimely deaths, and Gregory suspects not only that the deaths are related but that another one of his patients may be somehow involved. Lacking facts but roused by suspicion and troubled by seemingly random acts of terror around him, Gregory starts to fear for the safety of the people he loves. The question of the inviolability of confidential disclosures made to Gregory by his patients - privileged information - becomes crucial as the psychologist pursues an unsettling romance with Lauren Crowder, a lovely deputy district attorney investigating one of the deaths. Bound to silence, Gregory follows the psychological tracks of someone he fears may be a cunning and disturbed killer, while turning to his enigmatic but supportive partner, Diane Estevez, for counsel, and to his tart-tongued female urologist neighbor for support. The sinister, surprising drama unfolds against Boulder's Rocky Mountain backdrop, in the arresting natural beauty of Aspen, and in the midst of a baroque Halloween costume party in downtown Boulder. Finally, in a lonely mountain lodge enshrouded in menace, the story comes to its breathtaking climax.

Interesting, the story dragged for a bit MF the MC isn’t to likeable at times. But not a bad mystery about the search for your pad and deadly secrets unearthed along the way.

Interesting adoption investigation
In Pick Your Poison by Leann Sweeney, Abby lives with her twin sister Kate in the wealthy home left to them by their recently deceased father. The morning of the book’s opening, the gardener, Ben, tells Abby that he needs to talk to her and Kate once Kate gets home from her time at school, where she is finishing up her PhD. But before Kate returns home, Abby’s lazy dog starts barking like crazy, leading her to the greenhouse, where she finds Ben lying dead of a horrific form of acid and cyanide poisoning.
Learning that Ben has been living under an assumed name after having been suspected of the murder of his first wife, Abby feels drawn to find the truth about Ben’s life, to the opposition of those in her own life. She soon learns that though the sheriff of Ben’s town suspects him of having killed his first wife, Cloris, with cyanide, he has never found any evidence of Ben’s guilt or even charged him with a crime. Ben’s second wife tells Abby that Ben has been on a mission to find the truth about Cloris, leading Abby to wonder if the two murders could be related, but also curious why Ben has been living at her home as the gardener.
The case takes a turn into dealing with issues of adoption, in particular buying and selling babies. This becomes especially personal to Abby, as she and her twin sister Kate were adopted at six weeks of age when their biological parents were killed in a plane crash, leading to personal challenges as well as investigative ones.
The book has clever details in its writing style. I really enjoyed the creative similes and other sayings in the text. Here is just one such quip: “I felt like a parakeet that got caught in a badminton game.”
I liked the choice to have Abby narrate the book, as she comes across as immature in some ways and proficient not just with computers but with certain details of her research. We see her grow in her abilities and in her connection to others in her lives. This especially comes true when she learns to relate to her ex-husband without falling back into the same traps that he used to suck her in during their awful marriage. I did feel that most of the other characters did not have the depth that we see in Abby. However, I did not like the way that Abby is so certain that she and she alone can solve this murder and goes out numerous times to confront suspects, even against the orders of the police detective in charge of her case. She cannot seem to believe that the detective actually knows anything about the case. I don’t like such arrogance.
When I compare this book to the Cats in Trouble Mystery series, also written by Leann Sweeney, it contains plenty of sparkle and energy, but not as much depth as the cat books I’ve read. I also had a little trouble following how Abby was able to make certain crucial connections in solving the case.
I enjoyed the audio performance of Danielle Ferland. The narrator does a good job of portraying Abby and her depictions of the others in her world. I did have a couple minor issues with the audio. For one thing, Hans, Aunt Caroline’s boy toy, comes across unbelievably. He is described as being a contestant in a Schwarzenegger look alike contest and has a strange accent, though fortunately he has only a couple lines. The other thing I’d like to see changed is for the Audible version to change the format so that each chapter of the book is a separate chapter in the Audible edition instead of making each Audible chapter cover several book chapters. Otherwise, I had fun with the performance given by Ferland.
Pick Your Poison has a dramatic denouement that really kept me tied to the book. In the midst of a flash flood, Abby confronts the killer and has to fight for her life. Despite my reservations about the stock characters and Abby’s refusal to believe the police can do their job, I still really enjoyed listening to this book. I give it four stars.

Rich girl go home
I thought I found a new series. First, I don't like the narrator. Her voice is annoying. Second, Abbey is financially independent so instead of working she butts her nose into a murder mystery? Really? She watches her sister on the brink of getting a PhD and this is all she is interested in? It sounds like she is a bored rich girl. Third, I'm from Houston and I have never heard anyone say when the skies do open up, it will be like a cow peeing on a flat rock. And, there are many others. I won't be buying another book in this series. I did not find Abbey smart or funny, just annoying. She needs to find another hobby.
