An Estate Sale Leads To Much More Than Expected.

Another beautifully written and wonderfully narrated mystery full of odd, even eccentric, unexplained family behaviour. A strange and intriguing family history of the former occupants. The characters are all utterly believable with our central character, Audrey, and her team plus new husband and her aging father creating huge empathy. This is a very enjoyable listen, very hard to putdown.

Like Black Friday at Walmart's, but with antiques.

Having read, and very much enjoyed, the three earlier Palmyrton Estate Sale stories, when I was offered a complimentary copy of Treasure in Exile, via Goodreads, I accepted with alacrity. And I was not disappointed.

Audrey, now married to a police officer, has a new assistant to help her and Ty with the house sales and with two potentially lucrative clearances in prospect, things were beginning to look up financially. But, of course, things do not go as smoothly as she had hoped when the Tate mansion, former home of the very wealthy and reclusive widow, begins to give up secrets long hidden, and Ty's family's past returns to threaten them as well.

Whilst the mysteries within each story are exciting and suspenseful, the real joy of the Treasure books is in the characters involves. Each, even the minor protagonists, is so well drawn they become real people to like, or not, according to the reader's own subjective view. But every one is very human, with their own foibles, ambitions and prejudices. Even though the book always adhers closely to the plot line, the reader nevertheless cannot help but be drawn into a tentative relationship with the people as well as the mystery.

Enhancing the entire experience, narrator Janelle Tedesco returns again to become Audrey. Her pace and intonation beautifully capture her excitements, fears and general care for her agency and friends. The other protagonists are not ignored either, each being skillfully and separately voiced. Her performance turns an already excellent book into a delight.

Although this is the fourth book in the series, Treasure in Exile, like it's three predecessors, is entirely stand alone. Without graphic violence, sex scenes or swearing, but still packing a considerable punch in the thrills department, it is suitable for everyone. And highly recommended.

Hidden Secrets And Treasure.

I came into this series on book four. But found the story and characters quite easy to get into. I've never been interested in house clearances very much. This audio book soon changed my mind i felt part of Audrey and her team. Her love of mystery and and unravelling clues is very much like myself. The relationship between Audrey and her team is very heartwarming. I found this story to be a very emotional rollercoaster of a ride. The narrator tells this story brilliantly. I really enjoyed listening to this and have found myself becoming a fan of the series.

Treasure in Exile

I enjoyed this one,I wish we had estate sles like this! These are fun books. Audrey goes to extremes to finagle facts out of people.She and her team end up in the middle of some sticky situations. Janelle Tedesco was a fine narrator.I was given this book by the narrator,author or publisher free for an honest review.
