I listened to the audio book version read by Phoebe Judge on the podcast Phoebe Reads a Mystery.

I belive I first hear about this store from a mystery writer who described it as the best mystery ever written. Can't say that I agree with their enthusiastic statements, however I did really enjoy the story most of the time.

My one issue os the comments on "the nature of women" and such. However that is the only time I felt that the story had aged. Other than that it's super funny and charming.
