I listened to a couple of murder mystery books on CD recently.
The first was "A Necessary Evil," by Alex Kava.
A bunch of pedophile Catholic priests were being murdered. The main detective, a woman FBI profiler, was very adept at catching people.
It was an excellent book. I LOVED THE ENDING! Although I'm not a great solver of puzzles, I did solve this one early in the book, and even so, it was still GREAT!
The other was Joanne Fluke's, "The Apple Turnover Murder."
This one took, I figured out early in the book. It was kind of frustrating as well since the murder did not occur until about half way through the book.
The main character, Hanna Swenson, was the owner of a cookie shop. It is a fun combination of book Genre's. It is a mystery with lots of recipes, like a cookbook; lots of sexual tension, like a romance novel; animal stories.
It didn't appeal to me all that much, as I like the mystery part in mystery novels. I like a lot of that, and a little of the other stuff. This book is a good balance of all that and I think many people would enjoy it alot for its fun combination. I'm a bit more straight forward than that, however.
