The Paperwhite Narcissus (2005) - Plot & Excerpts

This is one of the few MP3 audio books my library has and so it was the inaugural read on my iPod. The series has an interesting premise (92-year old reporter) however, with the exception of the occasional reference to antiquated equipment like typewriters, age has almost nothing to do with the storyline and seems irrelevant. Perhaps the character's age is an homage to Miss Marple.This was a light, pleasant read and ideal for testing new technology. I would like to try another in the series so I can think more about the mystery than the way the technology works - if my library would get its act together and obtain them.

Victoria is a columnist for the local newspaper (The Island Enquirer) on Martha's Vineyard. She is also a deputy of West Tinsbury. When she gets fired from the newspaper, she goes to a friend (Botts) who has a one-page newsletter and, through her wiles, gets him to hire her as a reporter. Then there are three murders, obits sent to the very alive editor of The Island Enquirer, and deception among island residents that all add up to a mystery that Victoria sets out to solve.Very nicely written cozy mystery with a wonderful protagonist. Oh, did I say that she is 92 years old?
