Description from the publisher:

When amateur sleuth Sabrina Daley discovers that a local hypnotherapist is giving illegal mind-altering pills to his patients, she becomes desperate to uncover his true intentions. Unfortunately, before she has the chance to confront him, the hypnotherapist is found dead.

But who murdered him? Was it one of his patients? His bitter spouse?  His assistant?  Or is something more nefarious going on in Sabrina's once-idyllic small town of Treasure Cove?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

LEMON BARS with a SIDE of MURDER is the fourth book in the Daley Buzz Cozy Mysteries.  While each will probably stand on its own, it’s probably best to read each in the order of release.

I have come to the conclusion that this series is wonderful as a “my first cozy mysteries” for teens and tween.”  The series is fun, easy to listen to, and easy to follow.  The characters and the town are growing.

This is the series I turn to when I need a cozy, but don’t want to think too hard.  That isn’t a put down.  That is me, relaxing.  That is me, recognizing the advantage to a simpler plot line.  Too often real life is overwhelming and a simpler plot is just what I need to get through, or, as I said earlier, it becomes a great first cozy series for younger readers.

Narration:  Lisa Beacom does a nice job of narrating and has a pleasant voice.

Note:  While I received this book as a gifted audiobook copy, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
