When Jesse Graham unlocks the door to the deserted house she inherited from her Aunt Helen, she doesn’t realize she’s unlocking secrets that had lain dormant for years. Reeling from a broken engagement to acclaimed musician Robert Cronmiller, Jesse wants to leave the city where her name is linked to his in all the society pages. Her best friend Maggie, aka Sister Angelina, convinces her to take a job at a private girls school in the pastoral Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. Anticipating a quiet, revitalizing life in her aunt’s deserted house, Jesse is instead thrown into a maze of danger. Questions about her aunt’s death lead Jesse to investigate events surrounding it and the people involved, but she uncovers a web of deceit that reaches far beyond the occurrences of over two decades earlier. Still dejected from her broken engagement, Jesse finds it difficult to trust anyone, even her self-absorbed mother. Joe Riley is irresistible, but secrets obstruct involvement with him until Jesse can solve the secrets of the Cavanaugh House. Someone doesn’t want those secrets unearthed and will stop at nothing, even murder, to keep them hidden.

Unlike her first novel, the sequel, Love’s Spirit took only seven months from inception to submission, and was published in April 2013.To coin a friend’s phrase, she didn’t retire, she “refired” and loves her second career as a writer.

Elizabeth’s mysteries are set in 1968 in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. An Amazon Bestseller, The Cavanaugh House, and its sequel, Buried Secrets, are available as audiobooks. She has also published poetry and freelance articles.

This is my first audio book and I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. I have to say that it is pretty cool!

The story itself is great. It has mystery, romance, paranormal and plenty of plot twists and turns to keep you interested. There were a few moments that shocked me and I felt like I wanted to read quicker. I really like the characters interaction and depth. I feel like Jesse is someone I would be friends with.

The narrator has a nice voice and does a wonderful job with the different characters. I never felt confused about which person she was reading. Her voice is clear and precise and she made the characters stand out.

While I’ll always prefer reading a book on my own, it was pretty neat to be read to. If you’re a fan of audio books, The Cavanaugh House By Elizabeth Meyette is one I recommend!
