About this listen

I never thought my life would take a turn into the world of murder mysteries, but here I am, Ophelia Pane, vampire veterinarian extraordinaire, caught in the middle of a deadly game of cat and mouse... or should I say parrot and vampire? As I struggle to juggle my overflowing clinic of fur babies and mythical creatures, a simple house call to check in on a chatty parrot named Elvis turns into a nightmare when I stumble upon his owner’s lifeless body. I must be cursed with bad timing and paranormal shenanigans, because while I’m still frozen in shock, Detective Ryder Wolff shows up at the crime scene… and suddenly I’m a prime murder suspect. Deciding I better uncover the truth if I want to avoid ending up in an orange jumpsuit, I team up with a big-hearted pixie, a troll with a knack for numbers, and a chatty parrot who just doesn’t know when to shut up. Things take a dangerous turn, and it isn’t long before the killer is breathing down my neck. Yes, I know breathing down necks is kind of a vampire’s main gig… but let’s be real, it’s downright creepy.

As the bodies start piling up and the stakes get higher, I can’t help but wonder if I’ll be able to crack the case before it’s too late. This is a clean paranormal cozy mystery series with a side of humor, that features a vampire veterinarian who stumbles into trouble while trying to take care of her patients... those of the normal and the supernatural variety.

I want to say I really enjoyed this but I don't think it quite loved up to the expectations. The start had me really hooked and I thought I had a new favourite series but somewhere in the middle I started to lose interest. The story slowed down and I think I got fed up hearing how she sucked down another blood box. Yes I know it's better than biting necks but one minute she is staving, the next she has another box, which to be honest only served to remind the listener that the main character was a vampire and had nothing to do with the murder. I also wish the vet clinic or more important the animals especially the parrot had a bigger role, as this is where most of the humour came from. The mystery side of the story did throw a up a few surprises and I was only partly right with who the killer was. The author had a lot of fun with the names and there is a lot puns or play on words there. I would probably listen to the next book in the series just because I think the series has potential as the characters grow.
Owning your own vet practice that operates at night is perfect for vampire owner Ophelia and her super natural clients. What's not so great is when it's set in a human town that don't know about the high ratio of super naturals living amongst them, the burglaries that are hitting the small shops or being at every pet owner's beck and call. One of those clients is the owner of a talking parrot but when Ophelia phones the worried owner to give her the result her she can't get a hold of her. Worried Ophelia decided to make a personal visit, especially as the woman was so worried she had argued with the vet tec earlier and now not to answer seems strange. Ophelia stumbles over her dead body and clues her tec could be more involved than she would like. Rather than point the police in vet tec direction Ophelia decides to investigate herself. The more she does the more she learns that the lady and her loud parrot were not well liked and she will have to use her vampire skills to solve the murder.
The story had two narrators the female did most of the reading but when ever a man spoke the male half of the team would talk. This was unusual for an audio book but somehow they made it work and I enjoyed there performance.

Got so much time for this story! Not my usual level of spice and heat but the comedy and side characters made it for me! Suspense, murder, paranormal vets…. It’s brilliant!
The narrators are perfect for this story!
