About this listen

Could you commit murder to complete an antique set? Looks like someone did!

Marty's a recently divorced antique and art appraiser who moves from the Midwest to live with her sister in High Desert, California, just outside of Palm Springs. Since their early childhood days, her sister has always possessed unexplained psychic abilities that often enable her to predict future events.

An antique appraisal in the home of a recently murdered woman puts Marty at the center of a search for the killer. Who did it? The woman’s son? The well-known collector of antique Meissen china? A professional art and antique thief? The owner of Mai Tai Mama’s restaurant? And just what part did the collection of Meissen china Monkey Band figurines play in the murder?

Detective Jeff Combs is just as determined to develop a relationship with Marty and her dog, Duke, as he is to solve the crime. Will the psychic abilities of Marty’s sister help her find the killer?

This is the first book in the popular High Desert Cozy Mystery series by a two-time USA Today best-selling author.

Antique collecting can be murder but a great story

I enjoyed this new series by Dianne Harman. I loved this book especially the fact that it is slightly different and the main characters sister gets premonitions, it added a little something to this mystery without being weird and I think it worked well for the story. The mystery was interesting and again full of suspects for you to puzzle out who the killer is. I liked the characters, especially the small town feel of the place and the way Laura convinces everyone about her psychic powers by showing them. The only thing I would say is Marty despite owning a dog he hardly came into the story at all, which is very unusual for this author. It is still a great start to the series.
Marty after her recent divorce moves back to live with her sister and run her own business as an art appraiser. Her sister has always been gifted, so when Laura predicts that things won't go smoothly on Marty's next job, Marty convinces Laura to join her. Apon arrival at the rich woman's house they discover the house a treasure trove of priceless art but the dead women's most prized possession a set of rare monkey's has gone missing. Was the stolen monkey band the reason behind her murder? The police ask for her help in understanding the significance of the stolen statues and soon Marty and her sister are involved in more than just pricing art of a dead woman.
I like this narrator she did a good job with the characters in the story.
