About this audiobook
Storyton Hall, Virginia, is a top travel destination for book lovers and the perfect spot for literary events. But as a children's book publisher hosts a gathering there, some folks aren't going to live-happier ever after or otherwise . . .
Jane Steward's resort is hopping-not only is Peppermint Press's conference in full swing, there are also lots of families staying on the premises, bringing their kids to events like a scavenger hunt through the Fairy Tale Forest.
Then a woman dressed like Little Red Riding Hood is found dead from a plot device straight out of a fairy tale-with a rare and valuable copy of Grimm's Fairy Tales in her basket. Not long after, a second victim is killed, with yet another treasure-a volume by Hans Christian Andersen worth thousands of dollars-nearby. It looks like a big bad wolf may be lurking among the guests, and Jane can't just wait for a handsome prince to come to the rescue . . .

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5As always, this adventure at Storyton Hall is filled with mystery, intriguing characters and a great story. I can't wait for the next book!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I really enjoyed this one! The last couple of books were enjoyable but a bit repetitive. I'm not aure what made this one different...Maybe the happiness and romance in the air or the motives for the murder. I was glad to read it over the holidays, it felt very cozy!
