De: Jennie Marts

Narrado por: Cris Dukehart

As a successful mystery author, Bailey Briggs writes about murder, but nothing prepares her for actually discovering the dead body of the founder of her hometown of Humble Hills, Colorado. Bailey grew up at Honeybuzz Mountain Ranch and was raised by her beekeeping grandmother, Blossom Briggs, aka Granny Bee, and her two eccentric sisters, Aster and Marigold—which is why she drops everything to come home and help Granny Bee after a bad fall.

A broken foot doesn’t stop her grandmother from ruling The Hive, her granny’s book club, or continuing to prepare and package her bee-inspired products. But when Bailey's grandmother’s infamous Honey I'm Home hot spiced honey turns out to “bee” the murder weapon and her granny is now the prime suspect, Bailey has no choice but to use her fictional detective skills to help solve the murder and smoke-out the real culprit.

With the help of Bailey’s witty bestie, a pair of meddling aunts, the feisty members of The Hive, and her computer-savvy daughter, this amateur sleuth is determined to solve the case. A malicious attack and an ominous threat reveal that someone wants Bailey to butt out of the investigation, but there’s no way she’s backing down. She must use her skills to uncover the truth and catch the clever culprit before her grandmother ends up bee-hind bars.

Very fun listen!

This was my very first cozy mystery book I’ve ever decided to give a try and I’m very happy I did. It was a very enjoyable listen and I really fell in love with the narration and all of the characters especially the good boy Cooper! Looking forward towards digging into the second book! And of course I do hope that the author is eventually considering a third book added to this series in the near future!

Hope authorities write ..

Many more books with this cast of characters! So well written you feel you know each one. Story has twist and turns enough to pull you into the next chapter 👍👍👍👍

well written and entertaining

Take the Honey and Run is a well written and entertaining cozy mystery with engaging characters and an interesting plot. I look forward to the next book in this series.

Good cozy mystery

Great cozy mystery. Both the author and the narrator kept me invested from the first chapter. With a number of twists and turns and a result I didn’t see coming, I was hooked. Cannot wait to read and or listen to more from this author.
 

A nice diversion from a hectic life

I enjoyed getting to know these characters. Some of the scenes were a little unbelievable but it's a novel and it was fun. My overall reaction: I simply enjoyed this book.

If Murder She Wrote and I Love Lucy had a baby

This cozy mystery was too silly for me. In a small town where everyone knows everything, but the two close friends don’t know they are dating the same man? A mom lets her 12-year-old help investigate a murder?
But if you can get over the completely unbelievable, silly plot, the narration is enjoyable. It is good if you need to just mindlessly listen to something.
