Summary

Giants and fairies and murder, oh, my!

Life on the Enchanted Coast just got a whole lot more interesting. With expansions to the resort that include a wing for larger species—giants, to be exact—and a forest complete with fairy pools and cottages to attract woodland species, witch Destiny Maganti is facing a whole new influx of paranormal guests.

When a mysterious woman is murdered during the official grand opening and a fairy loved by all is accused, she has her hands full. For the first time ever, the resort is divided, and it's all she can do to hold it together.

On top of solving a murder, she's also tasked with finding a replacement manager for the tiki. From stuffy professor types to lackadaisical surfers, her applicant pool is as frustrating as it entertaining, but something's gotta give. After all, she's a witch, not a superhero.

Join Destiny, Tempest, Colin, and the rest of the Enchanted Coast crew on yet another magical, fast-paced adventure full of humor, fruity drinks, and homicide.

A nice fantasy murder mystery

Not my usual genre and I took a while imagining the characters but once I started I found myself in suspense wondering whodunit.
A nice simple story full of fun characters perfect for young adults and fantasy lovers alike

A fun cozy tale dappled with magic

Engaging characters and a plot with enough turns to keep me guessing.
The setting had a holiday feel and the magical cast were believable.
The narrator was very clear and easy to understand. Her accent added to the story although it took me a little while to get used to it - the voice in my head is very British and this is my first audio cozy!
I would recommend this to any cozy mystery lovers who like their mystery sprinkled with magic.

High tide you got this book

This is the first book by this author that I have listened or read but it won't be my last. How I missed the first three books in the series I don't know but I will be putting that to right very soon. The characters are what intrigued me and made it so entertaining. An enchanted coastal resort is the perfect location for this series, giving the author plenty of scope to introduce a wide range of quirky and colourful characters to get the imagination going. I especially liked Tempest the feisty witch's familiar, who had me chuckling. The mystery was interesting and while there wasn't a lot of suspects it certainly kept you guessing on a number of things, like who was the victim, how she was killed and even the motive. Just a fun cozy paranormal mystery to sink your teeth into, unless your a vampire of course.
Destiny is busy helping to get ready for the unveiling of the resorts latest attractions catering to both fairies and gaints, as well as her normal job of running the tiki bar without a manager. So the last thing she needs is to be told that one of the guests has been murdered and her best friends boyfriend might be the prime suspect. Can Density and friends find the real killer? Especially as the dead woman isn't who they thought and they don't even know how she died.
I liked the narrator. She put in a magical performance to bring the characters to life and make it an enjoyable listen.
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.

Delightful!

The Enchanted Coast is a classy resort that caters to supernatural beings of all sorts. The most recent addition is the wing for giants and this is the first time to register for their vacation. Destiny is in charge of activities and is looking for a new manager, but the pickings have been slim. She's surrounded by paranormals who had me chuckling at their quirks and their words. Bob the Bigfoot Bartender, Tempest the Fox Familiar, Stan the cupid whose work clothes consister of a bow, quiver and loincloth and Collin her boyfriend are just some of the motley crew that make up the core of the story. There's a tongue-in-cheek murder mystery that is actually quite surprising, and it's a very well-written story with some of the most unique and interesting characters to grace the page. As always, the narration by Meghan Kelly is spot on with her dynamic voice and delivery of the characters' uniqueness and personality.

Truly Delightful!

Bartender Destiny Maganti’s search for a new manager for the Enchanted Coast Resort’s Tiki Bar isn’t going well at all! And NOW the body of a resort guest has been found on the beach! The Expansion Committee is going to lose their minds if Destiny doesn’t get to the bottom of THIS debacle fast! “High Tide Homicide” is a delightfully charming, throughly enjoyable cozy mystery! Stuffed to the brim with delightfully entertaining characters and featuring a smooth flowing mysterious and engaging plot, my interest was held and my puzzle solving skill challenged! I loved every ingeniously original character! THIS is a group I would love to be a part of. I absolutely had a favorite though, my heart was completely stolen by a sassy Fox named Tempest! No spoilers, listen and see if you agree! I also have to say that I was INSTANTLY drawn into this intriguing plot! Easy to understand, easy to follow, and throughly entertaining! Both the characters and the scene setting were brought to life by beautiful, clear and vibrant narration making this production a five star listen across the board. I loved it!

Fun cozy!

As Destiny is getting ready for an opening of the resort, she is told of a murder. Just what she needs! Now finding out who the victim is, the motive and list of suspects takes precedence and she is on it! From finding out the victim may not be who they think to the main suspect being her best friend's boyfriend has Destiny working hard. Will she solve the mystery before the opening? And how will it all turn out? Tegan Maher has a fantastic venue for a cast of quirky, magical characters. I love Destiny and Tempest. Tempest added to the fun, with witty banter and lots of help. Love the potions and interesting way Maher wraps all the characters, from Giants to fairies together. It's a fun, engaging mystery and I know I will be coming back to the Enchanted Coast.

Meghan Kelly has such a talent for voicing a story. The cozy mysteries in particular always have a vast array of characters, and she picks the perfect sound for each one. Interpreting each personality, giving it a voice and making it come alive is her true calling, and I enjoyed her reading of this book.

I loved this story!

I found this story to be interesting, funny with a lot of snark which makes it a fantastic cozy mystery. The author does a great job with the story. If you want to laugh out loud this story will do it for you.
The narrator is one of my favorite narrators. She always does a fantastic job with the characters and the voices of each of the characters to make it easy to distinguish between them.

Enjoyed

I always look forward to listening to anything that Meghan narrates. Tegan was a new author. I enjoyed this change of pace from what I typically read. The story flowed nicely, and I could easily visualize it like a movie. I will go back and listen to more in the series. I loved the setting it was a perfect cozy mystery. Meghan is one of my top-tier narrators because you can easily see that she loves her job.

Paranormal Murder Mystery

I enjoyed this paranormal murder mystery based on a vacation resort catered to Fae, giants and other creatures. The narrator did a great job on lending her voices to the zany characters in this audiobook.

High Tide Homicide

What a cool job working on a vacation island with super naturals. Except when your job is doing more than your paid to do, and their is a murder on the loose. The only good news is that the murder had a good reason for killing the thief or did they? All leads start off looking that way. But they keep turning up nothing.
This is my first book in this series and it was fun to listen to. Interesting cast of characters. I would definitely listen to more from the series! The narration is lovely and really fit the lead.

Very fun cozy!

High Tide Homicide is #4 in the Enchanted Coast Magical Mystery series by Tegan Maher. The Enchanted Coast Resort was recently renovated to be inclusive to giants, fairies, and others. Now all sorts of supernatural and magical beings can relax and unwind in comfort together. Unfortunately, a guest gets murdered and the manager, Destiny Maganti and her friends, are trying to solve the crime before bad press shutters the resort. The story is very well written and imaginative, and I can definitely see the characters playing at the beach. The narration by Megan Kelly is great. She creates unique voices, accents and vocal characteristics that correspond to each different supernatural creature. Her performance brings the characters and story to life and makes it a more enjoyable experience.

Fun book!

It’s such a fun and easy read/listen. I liked listening about different creatures cohabiting together, and there was a twist about the murder.
I can’t say enough things about the narrator. Meghan did an amazing job bringing this book to life & giving each creature a voice of their own.
