Summary
Susan Wiles is driving home from open house on a winding mountain road, late at night. Nearly falling asleep at the wheel, she is startled when she hears something hit her Prius from out of nowhere. It's a dead woman lying in the road! Susan panics. Did she hit this pedestrian?
After calling for help, she notices that the body lying dead on the road is her school's assistant principal, Melissa Chadwick. Her detective daughter arrives at the scene and sensing something isn't right, discourages her mother from admitting guilt. Is this an accident, or a murder? Was Melissa killed by a coworker, someone with a grudge against her husband's recently relocated business, or someone very close to her heart?
Feeling responsible, retired teacher Susan Wiles puts on her sleuthing cap, determined to find the answer. Will she find the truth, or will tragedy once again strike the cozy New York town of Westbrook?

Chartered is another word for good plot
I enjoyed this book. What I love about these books is the author packs so much into her stories that it never gets a chance to get boring. The story is very nicely balanced out with home life drama and investigation antics, that you just have to keep listening until the very end as you don't know what is going to happen next. The characters are just great and work together well as a family. The mystery was nicely worked, with lots of clues so by the end of the book I did know who the killer was, sort of, still a few twists up the authors sleeve. The mystery does get solved but sort of leaves it on a cliff hanger as it sets it up for the next book and oh boy are you going to want to get it.
A tired Susan is driving home from a school function late at night when There is a bump in the road. Worried she has hit an animal she gets out to discover a body. A body she recognises, it's the new assistant principal for the very school she is helping at. When her detective daughter arrives in the scene she whisk Susan to the hospital to get checked out. Could the early signs of diabetes be the reason she is so tired and the cause of the crash? Lynette is not so sure her mum is the reason for the dead body lying in the road and thinks the woman had help falling from the bridge. The vice principal is new to town and other than the staff at the school hardly knows anybody else, this puts Susan in the perfect position to ask questions and get to the bottom of the murder. Then tragedy strikes the family and a second body is found leaving Susan with even more questions. At the same time she starts to worry about her mother's safety, as her new husband is showing signs of being abusive. Can Susan help her mum and find the killer?
I liked the narrator. She used her voice well to not only bring the characters to life but also the story.

A lot of questions, not so many answers!
When Susan is driving home from her new volunteer teaching gig at the charter school she is shocked and surprised to hear something hit a roof and bang against the windshield and of course it was a dead body, but not just any dead body it was the vice principal of the charter school. Finding dead bodies isn’t new to Susan while, but possibly being the cause of the death is and it isn’t until the next morning when she finds out Mrs. court right the vice principal was strangled before being thrown off the railroad bridge that Susan can start to relax… Kind of she has it take care and find out whether or not she has diabetes and let’s not forget who murdered Melissa court right I love the narrator of the story and things she does such a great job. As far as the mystery goes I gave it five stars and as far as a narrator I also gave it five stars which makes it an all-around great audiobook a good listener and a great mystery. In this book there is talk of domestic abuse and there was even a little verbal abuse but nothing that’s a trigger anyone just thought I would mention it in case just the insinuation of abuse upset you, but true to die and whiners writing style there really isn’t anything offensive in this book… Well except for all the murders. I highly recommend this book it was awesome I love the stories!
