A rather pedestrian, sometimes boring, not very engaging - takes some time to get into, by which time you realise that it is never going to excite or enthral you. I think this book is written for little old ladies who don't mind plodding along. What do you think the narrator could have done better? She was OK, probably suited a low-key production.

Did Swamp Sniper inspire you to do anything? Well, the title did - but it gives you the wrong impression of what to expect! I love this series it has amazing characters and so much fun but with a thrilling adventure mystery and so much more the town of Sinful is unpredictable and exciting.
