At a crossroads between a cringe-worthy past (Todd the Toad) and an uncertain future (she's not exactly homeless, but it's close), Lucy Swift travels to Oxford to visit her grandmother. With Gran's undying love to count on and Cardinal Woolsey's, Gran's knitting shop, to keep her busy, Lucy can catch her breath and figure out what she's going to do.
Except it turns out that Gran is the undying. Or at least, the undead. But there's a death certificate. And a will, leaving the knitting shop to Lucy. And a lot of people going in and out who never use the door-including Gran, who is just as loving as ever, and prone to knitting sweaters at warp speed, late at night. What exactly is going on?
When Lucy discovers that Gran did not die peacefully in her sleep, but was murdered, she has to bring the killer to justice without tipping off the law that there's no body in the grave. Between a hot 500-year-old vampire and a dishy detective inspector, both of whom always seem to be there for her, Lucy finds her life getting more complicated than a triple cable cardigan. The only one who seems to know what's going on is her cat . . . or is it . . . her familiar?

Zum Zwischendurch hören eignet es sich hervorragend! Es gibt einige Wiederholungen (so dass einem als Leser gefühlt unterstellt wird, ein Gedächtnis wie ein Sieb zu haben), aber für einen gemütlichen, unaufgeregten Hörgenuss reicht es mehr als aus

Mir hat das Buch soweit gut gefallen. Die Charaktere blieben etwas undurchsichtig aber es ist ja erst der erste Teil. Ich mochte den Schreibstil gerne und habe mehrere Male gemacht. Trotz Krimi und morden war das Buch nicht brutal oder blutig. Ich konnte auch gut mit raten wer der Killer ist. Fand die Enthüllung aber trotzdem spannend und zt überraschend. Ein netter mystery cosy crime. Ich werde den nächsten Teil auf jeden Fall hören.
