I enjoy this book. This is a new to me author but it won't be the last time I pick up one of her books, as I enjoyed her humour. The story mostly focus on the mystery but does give you a little bit of home life drama, which the author uses to paint a vivid picture of the characters making them easy to imagine and like. I especially liked the antics and dressing up while under cover. The story has a real family vibe to it and I liked how everybody got involved in solving the mystery, even the dog. They are very down to earth but give the impression there newly acquired wealth has them playing a role, that they are not totally comfortable with. The story was well thought out giving the main character plenty of chances and unique opportunity to question her suspects. The mystery had plenty of suspects to keep you guessing and enjoying the ride. Looking forward to the next book and also checking out her other series.
When Frank's invention takes off, it sees the money rolling. Frank and his wife Carole, decide it's time to move to a place more fitting to there station in life. They try applying for a luxury co-op in a prestige building by offering double the asking price, only for it to be turned down by the owner.

Carole can't let her husband go to jail, so decides along with her mother in law the prestige building needs a new cleaner and while She is there it will give her plenty of opportunities to find the real killer. Can Carole clean up the mess her husband finds himself in or will she need to learn how to bake a cake with a file in?
I liked the narrator. Her accents helped to paint a clear picture of the characters and also provide a few laughs. I would listen to her again.
