About this listen

With the festive season fast approaching, amateur sleuth Juno Browne helps organise a Christmas Fair to raise funds for Ashburton’s local animal sanctuary. The event is a success, but whilst Santa is handing out presents in the fairy-lit grotto, a murder is being committed in a dark corner of the garden. Juno discovers the body of Bob the Blacksmith, found clutching a horseshoe decorated with a sprig of elder.

Suspicion falls on Bob’s longsuffering wife, Jackie, and on Don Drummond, with whom Bob violently quarrelled in the past. From this cloud of suspicion, Juno begins to make connections between Bob’s murder and previous ‘accidental’ deaths, but her course is obstructed by those who insist on links to ancient folklore. Determined to take the evidence with a generous pinch of salt, Juno navigates pagan ceremonies and astrological connections that turn up yet more bodies on a deadly path to the truth.

Brilliantl

Loves the story at great new book. I wish the series was made into a tv series. My only problem is the reader. She has a very old voice if the story was not so good I would have given up. The first narrator was much better

disappointing

I have enjoyed the previous books, read by Stephanie Austin they were very easy to listen to. Although the storyline is good I'm sorry to say that the problem lies with the narrator. Jilly Bond's voice is very irritating. She tends to get over excited in her readings and it is so annoying, So much so that i'm afraid I gave up listening to it. I shall not bother with the next Audible edition and go for rather the book or the Kindle version I can never understand why people find it necessary to change narrators during an on going series, for me this change has been a disaster. A huge disappointment.

A good story but narrator sounded too old for the character.

I really like this series and this is the first one I have listened to. The narrator has a lovely voice but she sounds older than the character of Juno and therefore it was off putting. I liked the storyline though. It was well written and enjoyable.
