About this listen

It's Christmas in Sinful and Fortune is set to participate in all the local hoopla. A Christmas gala, caroling, and a sleigh ride are on the agenda. Murder is not. But when someone bumps off Santa, Fortune is aware a killer is lurking among the holiday cheer. But with no client and no reason to interfere with a police investigation, it looks as if Fortune, Ida Belle, and Gertie will have to sit this one out.

Big and Little Hebert might be criminals, but they prefer no competition in their territory, especially someone brazen enough to kill a man at the Christmas gala. When they hire Fortune to investigate the man’s death, she gets her Christmas wish and Swamp Team 3 sets out to solve their final case of the year.

Help! I'm running out of Miss Fortune books!

This series has been an absolute joy to read and I'm already dreading that there's only 1 more book to go! So happy to see Big & Little Hibbert and Manby in this one too.

Great & very enjoyable

I've always enjoyed this series and this is a great addition. It's better than the last few as well. I wish I could listen to it again as though it were the first time!

Not my texts

Not to my taste. Didn't like the casual use of guns. But then I'm British

Festive chaos

I enjoyed this book. This story was a lot more complicated than some of the other books in the series but is still a lot of fun. The author manages to include some nice Christmas humour or should I say disasters in this book and there are some memorable moments, think a talking parrot in a Christmas pageant. I have enjoyed all the books in the series and own them all as audio books but since Gertie got a parrot, the author has taken it to a whole other level and it is very rare to not be laughing. However the case had a more series side to the story, yes I know there is always a murder for swamp team three to investigate but this one involved young children. The story takes a lot of twist and I think you cycle through every emotion along the way, I must admit I am not sure I wanted the killer caught. Off to start the next adventure.
When Gertie takes her very talkative parrot to take part in the Sinful Christmas pageant, Fortune was ready for trouble but not even Her CIA training could prepare her to find Santa dead. It is quickly discovered that the local man who plays santa is alive, just badly beaten up and no body knows who the dead man is. When they discover he was a shady private investigator with a very questionable past and him ending up dressed as santa, the Herbert's hire Fortune and the team to find who he was looking for. There is only one reason to dress as santa and that is to get close to children and if They sent one guy what's to stop them from sending someone else?
The narrator continues to delight and entertain her audience.

SO GOOD TO HAVE THE GIRLS BACK

Adopted children and a mother's love, are the themes of the book.
With Gertie's handbag on top form, Idabelle's upcoming nuptials, and Santa dropping dead, Fortune has a very busy holiday season ahead. All completed with carol singing, sleigh rides and the Heberts giving her a hand, it means that Sinful is as busy as ever.

Swamp Santa

After an imposter Santa turns up dead, the Swamp Team ladies set off to find out what he was doing and why. Which lead to more fun and games for the ladies to get up with. Read brilliantly again by Cassandra Campbell.

Another great story from Sinful

This book has a good story, plenty of high jinx as usual and a great cliffhanger. Highly.recommended.

Just terrible - lame story, idiotic characters

If the main character is representative of CIA competence, it's surprising they ever work anything out! Every breakthrough was because someone told her the next part of the story.

These American novels are all starting to meld into one - feisty lead worrying about keeping a private eye/sheriff boyfriend on the hook.

And the bonkers old women carrying explosives in their handbag and wanting to shoot people with their sniper rifles. Utter rubbish!
