Killed by Clutter by Leslie Caine - 445 pages
nterior designer, Erin Gilbert can’t help but fall in love at first sight with her newest design job – a delightful little bungalow set on a quiet street.
Until she steps inside.
What looks neat and tidy as a postcard from the outside, looks like Hurricane Clutter on the inside! It seems the bungalow’s eccentric owner, widow Helen Walker, hasn’t thrown a thing out since 1942. Newspapers are piled high, almost reaching the ceiling, bric-a-brac covers every surface – there’s barely any space to walk from room to room!
What’s worse – two strange deaths in the area link back to Helen, convincing her that a serial killer is on the prowl – and every nosy friend or neighbor looks like a suspect!
This was o.k., a cozy mystery with a bit too many words.

A Killer Ball at Honeychurch Hall by Hannah Dennison - 415 pages
When antique dealer Kat Stanford stumbles upon the partially mummified body of a young woman in an abandoned wing at Honeychurch Hall, suspicion falls on those who had been living there many years ago. And it appears that the deceased had been murdered. Given her mother Iris’s checkered past, Kat is not surprised to learn that Iris knew the victim.
Meanwhile, the unexpected appearance of former lothario Bryan Laney sets female hearts aflutter. Despite the passing years, time has not dampened his ardor for Iris, but the feeling is not reciprocated.
interesting.

The Killer Next Door by Alex Marwood
The Killer Next Door
by Alex Marwood
387 pages
Everyone who lives at 23 Beulah Grove has a secret. If they didn't, they wouldn't be renting rooms in a dodgy old building for cash-no credit check, no lease. It's the kind of place you end up when you you've run out of other options. The six residents mostly keep to themselves, but one unbearably hot summer night, a terrible accident pushes them into an uneasy alliance. What they don't know is that one of them is a killer. He's already chosen his next victim, and he'll do anything to protect his secret.
This was an enjoyable audio to listen to and I really liked the reader, Imogen Church!
