While the police hunt for clues as to who the killer is, Sam also worries for her own life. Will the murderer be revealed before Sam becomes the next victim?

Thyme and Trouble by Carly Winter was another fantastic addition to this series that I’m really loving! I had the chance to listen to the audiobook, and overall, the narration was enjoyable. While the male voices could have been a bit stronger, it didn’t detract from my experience, especially with the narrator’s perfect take on Annabelle’s voice.In this book, it was wonderful to continue uncovering more of Sam’s past as a former actress, which added depth to her character. This cozy mystery was a delightful weekend listen and another win in the Heywood Herbalist series!.
This is the 5th book in the “Heywood Herbalist Cozy Mysteries Series”.

Now another murder has been committed and this time it is Sam’s neighbor Mrs. Mason’s husband. Sam and Jordan finds themselves once again caught up in a murder investigation.
How will Sam get to the solve the murder, who did it and why? For answers pick up your copy.

Take the trouble to make some "thyme" for this one. Winter has written another cute cozy. The Heywood Herbalist series began with a clever premise. Aging Soap opera star Samantha Rathbone has left Hollywood in disgrace. She started over in smalltown Heywood with a new name and a new career. No one knew her secret except her best friend Annabelle who recognised her because she was such a devoted fan to the show. The longer she went without telling anyone else, the more difficult it became. Sam's secret has been revealed, and her boyfriend Deputy Jordan Branson feels betrayed that she didn't trust him with the truth and is keeping his distance. When the owner of Knit Wit finds her husband murdered in the store, Sam becomes close to the older woman and jumps in to help solve the murder. Readers will enjoy the development in the overall story arc of the series and have fun solving another murder mystery along with Sam and her friends. I am a big fan of the author, which is why I was happy to get a downloadable review copy. All opinions are my own and I can honestly recommend both the Heywood Herbalist series and it's spinoff the Heywood Hounds.
The town, and her past know who she is. And someone is threatening her neighbor's and her life… They succeed in getting her neighbor's husband's life. The race is on… who will win? Another successful clean Cozy mystery murder you will not want to miss. So much fun.I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
