About this listen

Cabot Cove's crime-solving novelist Jessica Fletcher goes to New York just prior to Christmas, where a sidewalk Santa leads her into another mystery in this installment of the USA Today best-selling series.

Promoting her latest books brings best-selling mystery writer Jessica Fletcher to New York for Christmas. Her schedule includes book signings, chat-show appearances, department store shopping...and murder. But it all begins with a sidewalk Santa staring at Jessica with fear and recognition.

I always enjoyed the Murder She Wrote episodes on TV and so tried this audiobook. These are not great literature by any stretch of the imagination or even great crime writing but it is entertaining if you like Jessica Fletcher and the narration is o.k. It has nostalgia value for me and so I will be listening to more of them.

Entertaining story

well paced and narrated
great to see some familiar characters and in line with the TV show

Another great Jessica Fletcher story

Narrator was awful with the accents. I don’t know why sheriff Metzger has a Maine accent when he’s from New York.

Meh

So much better than the other 'free' Jessica Fletcher book! This was an interesting idea, had better defined characters, a faster pace, and a believable storyline (well, in Mrs Fletcher's world!).
One of Jessica's journeys should have been edited out or précised to a single paragraph its contents served no purpose.
The female narrator voices Seth & Morton convincingly. The whole story made me feel very Christmassy...but glad I'm in an English Cabot Cove rather than vast a metropolis.

MUCH better than Margaritas & Murder (in Mexico)

Found this hard to listen to as the narration was really bad. I won't be listening to anymore with this narrator. Story itself was fine.

awful narration

The narration started badly and I thought of giving up on this audiobook but it does get better. After a few minutes, I got absorbed in the story. It is enjoyable and the sound quality is good.

Quite enjoyable

Not a great story, very messy. I was disappointed that the narrator chose a ridiculous Maine accent for Sheriff Metzger, considering in the show he’s actually from New York. It was surprisingly off putting.

Average

Story was ok, the narrative was just so awful
Why did the Beth Porter try to sound like Jessica Fletcher??
Won't listen to narratives by Beth Porter again
Was very difficult to listen to the end

Great story

Which the narrator isn't quite as annoying as the previous one (Margaritas and Murder) still poor, giving the impression they'd not read the script before - constantly providing an unnecessary roller coaster of delivery and being surprised by the punctuation. And I seriesly doudt the author has even watched Murder, She Wrote as the characters are wrong, to the extet Mort (en ex NYPD cop) is renamed Moron and described as finding New York somewhere he wouldn't feel comfortable in. Also the mystery is pretty non existent.

Pretty woeful
