--Books and Movie Reviews (regarding Murder in the Manor)


A VILLA IN SICILY: OLIVE OIL AND MURDER is the debut novel in a charming new cozy mystery series by bestselling author Fiona Grace, author of Murder in the Manor, a #1 Bestseller with over 100 five-star reviews (and a free download)!


Audrey Smart, 34, is a brilliant vet—yet fed up by her demanding clients who think they know more than her and who don’t care about their animals. Burnt-out with the endless hours, she wonders if the time has come for a new direction. And when her 15th year high school reunion (and her hopes for re-sparking on old flame) end in disaster, Audrey knows the time has come to make a change.


When Audrey sees an ad for a $1 home in Sicily, it captivates her. The only catch is that the house requires renovation, something she knows little about. She wonders if it could be real—and if she may really be crazy enough to go for it. 


Can Audrey create a life and career—and the home of her dreams—in a beautiful Sicilian village? And perhaps even find love while she’s there?


Or will an unexpected death—one that only she can solve—put an end to all of her plans?


Are some dreams too good to be true?


A laugh-out-loud cozy packed with mystery, intrigue, renovation, animals, food, wine—and of course, love—A VILLA IN SICILY will capture your heart and keep you glued to the very last page.


Books #2 and #3 in the series—FIGS AND A CADAVER and VINO AND DEATH—are now also available!

A Villa In Sicily

I thoroughly enjoyed the flow of this book, shared the ups and downs of the issues the character in the book was experiencing. You could imagine yourself in her shoes. We all have "Days like that!"

I was relieved that there was a happy ending and I am ready to follow through with the writer's next adventure! 💕
