Story
For Alice and her partner Joe, moving to the sleepy village of Penton is a chance to embrace country life and prepare for the birth of their first child. He can take up woodwork; maybe she’ll learn to make jam? But the rural idyll they’d hoped for doesn’t quite pan out when a dead body is discovered at their local prenatal class, and they find themselves suspects in a murder investigation. With a cloud of suspicion hanging over the heads of the whole group, Alice and her new-found pregnant friends set out to solve the mystery and clear their names, with the help of her troublesome dog, Helen.

Everyone in my family has killed someone. Some of us, the high achievers, have killed more than once. I’m not trying to be dramatic, but it is the truth. Some of us are good, others are bad, and some just unfortunate. I’m Ernest Cunningham. Call me Ern or Ernie. I wish I’d killed whoever decided our family reunion should be at a ski resort, but it’s a little more complicated than that.

India Allwood grew up wanting to be an actor. Armed with a stack of index cards (for research/line memorization/make-shift confetti), she goes from awkward sixteen-year-old to Broadway ingenue to TV superhero. Her new movie is a prestige picture about adoption, but its spin is the same old tired story of tragedy. India is an adoptive mom in real life though. She wants everyone to know there’s more to her family than pain and regret. So she does something you should never do—she tells a journalist the truth: it’s a bad movie.

A weekly newspaper dedicated to the weird and the wonderful (but mostly the weird), The Stranger Times is the go-to publication for the unexplained and inexplicable. At least that's their pitch. The reality is rather less auspicious. Their editor is a drunken, foul-tempered and foul-mouthed husk of a man who thinks little of the publication he edits. His staff are a ragtag group of misfits. And as for the assistant editor...well, that job is a revolving door - and it has just revolved to reveal Hannah Willis, who's got problems of her own.

Publisher's summary
"Irresistible...Filled with surprise, poignancy, and excitement, this is a surefire winner." --Publishers Weekly (starred review)
A brilliant and witty drama about two brave female World War II veterans who survived the unthinkable without ever losing their killer instinct…or their joie de vivre.
Meet the Williamson sisters, Britain’s most treasured World War II veterans. Now in their late nineties, Josephine and Penny are in huge demand, popping up at commemorative events and history festivals all over the country. Despite their age, they’re still in great form—perfectly put together, sprightly and sparky, and always in search of their next “excitement.”
This time it’s a trip to Paris to receive the Légion d’honneur for their part in the liberation of France. And as always, they will be accompanied by their devoted great-nephew, Archie.
Keen historian Archie has always been given to understand that his great aunts had relatively minor roles in the Women’s Royal Navy and the First Aid Nursing Yeomanry, but that’s only half the story. Both sisters are hiding far more than the usual “official secrets”. There’s a reason sweet Auntie Penny can dispatch a would-be mugger with an umbrella.
This trip to Paris is not what it seems either. Scandal and crime have always quietly trailed the Williamson sisters, even in the decades after the war. Now armed with new information about an old adversary, these much decorated (but admittedly ancient) veterans variously intend to settle scores, avenge lost friends, and pull off one last, daring heist before the curtain finally comes down on their illustrious careers.

It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge.

Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

Story
It was 1970 in a defeated Rhode Island fishing town. Vietnam and Nixon dominated the national news. Both the near and distant future looked bleak. But they were five inseparable high school friends with something incredible in common: an unwavering resolve to look after each other no matter what hell life threw at them. And they were on a mission. The plan was simple: Go off the grid before they turned 18 to avoid the draft. They’d sell some grass, stack some cash, then head west and start a commune. What could possibly go wrong?

Fun Witty Entertaining
I am a sucker for stories about plucky senior citizens. “The Excitements” starts out very silly, with Aunty Penny and Josephine Williamson planning their trip to Paris with their dear great-nephew Archie. The great-aunties are in their 90’s, and enjoy a good cocktail and witty banter.
The two nonagenarians are to receive an award for their work in liberating France in WW II. Archie has no clue as to what his Aunties were involved in during the war. He thought they were minor bit players.
Aunty Penny has a secret side-hustle that funds her philanthropy. Author CJ Wray (pseudonym for Chrissie Manby) provides the back stories to these two enterprising sisters. Archie is in the dark about what his doting Aunties machinations were during the war, but the reader learns, as their past lives are told in shifting timelines.
If you enjoy witty dialogue with intrepid spunky senior characters, this is for you. I listened to the audio, narrated by Karen Cass. It’s over 11 hours long, and you will be chuckling during the entire book. While listening, I was transported into the story. Highly recommend for a substantive story that seems like it’s a fluffy read!

incredible all the way around!
I pre-ordered this book originally because I love Karen Cass' narrating, and have never been disappointed in any of the books she's narrated. it was an extra plus that one of my favorite genres is WWII historical fiction/ nonfiction novels, even more so about women who were an integral part of the war effort. So, when I read the summary, I had high hopes for this one. As soon as it arrived, I dug in and couldn't put it away! what an incredible story with wonderful characters, unexpected plot twists and, of course, top notch narration! I listened to this on a road trip with my 16 year old daughter and we were both thoroughly entertained and certain parts (i won't spoil it!) gave both of us chills! I can only hope that this book is optioned for a movie because it is, hands down, one of the best!
