'Til
Death Do Us Part
Baily Wiggins Mystery,
#4
By Kate White
Read by Kate Walsh
Bailey
continues to write true crime articles for Gloss magazine. Only
now she is her own source. Bailey has become an amateur sleuth,
and she is about to go to work once again. When fellow bridesmaid
Ashley Hanes calls Bailey, months after the wedding, Bailey figures
she wants a favor. She does. In a way. Ashley is calling about the
recent deaths of two women. It just so happens they were bridesmaids
with Ashley and Bailey at a spring wedding. Suddenly Bailey sees
this favor in a whole new light—a self-serving, life-saving
light.
Bailey
heads to Greenwich to investigate the deaths. She eventually ends
up with a third body and a couple of her own scary moments. The
local police think she’s screwy and the Greenwich population
is… well… different. Bailey is sooo ready to figure
this out and go home.
This
is the third Bailey Weggins mystery. Bailey’s character has
grown in wit and wisdom since the series debut, “If Looks
Could Kill.” This mystery is mildly complex, and the storyline,
as a whole, enjoyable. The characters in Bailey’s high society
world are still as exasperating as ever. And Baileyette’s
(series followers) will enjoy Bailey’s “will she, won’t
she” behavior with her latest love interest. Nothing more
entertaining than a single, working woman unable to make up her
mind and a man who “thinks” he can analyze the opposite
sex. It’s an amusing series for the light-hearted reader who
welcomes a good dose of dry humor in their mystery.
If
you haven‘t listened to this series on audio book then you
haven’t met Bailey. Actress Kate Walsh is Bailey. In Bailey’s
mocking style, Walsh’s additional intonations work. Those
sarcastic, witty moments are some of her best reading scenes. Expect
them to put a glimmer in your eye and a smile on your lips.
