Booker Brothers Detective Agency #1-3 was a great read by Maisie Dean.This box set consists of; State of the Art Heist, Stunt Double Trouble, and Ready on Set Drama. These books follow an aspiring actress, Kacey, working at a Detective Agency. Kacey works with the handsome brothers and their grandmother to investigate different cases. I can’t wait to read more by Maisie Dean.
STATE OF THE ART HEIST is the first book in the Booker Brothers Detective Agency series. This one definitely needs to be read first, as it is the introduction to all of the characters, though the cozy mystery is complete and stands alone.
I loved that the opening chapter was a conversation between Kacey and the reader. In stage vernacular, she was breaking the fourth wall. It was fun and made me love her immediately. She’s already set the stage (see what I did there?) to make me read/listen to the next couple of books just to find out which brother – Harrison, Lucky, or Owen – she eventually chooses as her mate… and with whom the other brothers will pair up.
I had a blast listening to this cozy mystery. The characters are fun and interesting. The story was laugh-out-loud enjoyment.

STUNT DOUBLE TROUBLE is the second book in the Booker Brothers Detective Agency series. Though each will stand on their own, it is best to read them all and in the order of release.
Maisie Dean puts the Cozy in Cozy Mysteries. I highly recommend this cozy, easy listening, detective agency series that includes a bit of romance, though we still don’t know who will win the fair hand of our lovely Kacey. All three of the handsome Booker brothers are worth their weight in gold and any of them would be a fine match for her. I have placed my bet; listen and make your prediction.
In STUNT DOUBLE TROUBLE, the mystery is as tightly woven, as it should be, with a great ending twist. The familiar characters are becoming even more developed and the characters for the current story are wonderfully unique and quirky. This was highly entertaining for such a relatively short read.

READY ON SET DRAMA is the third book in the Booker Brothers Detective Agency series. Though each will stand on their own, it is best to read them all and in the order of release
This is the perfect timing for this story in the series. Kacey is faced with her former life as an actress while investigating her newest assignment. She is established as a PI, but starting to feel a longing to return to return to the limelight. The push and pull can be strong.
How about this for a twist in a cozy mystery? There is no body. Nobody died! Instead, this is a straight up investigative job for Kacey on the studio set of a pilot episode of a new show. This story was more about the psychology of sabotage for their client and Kacey’s decision to stay with the firm or return to acting.
I love this series and I’m enjoying every episode. The first paragraph, it was hinted that Kacey will eventually be romantically connected with one of the Booker Brothers. Three books in and we don’t know which one yet. I love the anticipation!

Narration: The narrator is Marie Hoffman, so of course I thought it was a wonderful job done. She is one of my favorite narrators. I love listening to her conversational style of delivery. She consistently nails her part in bringing a book to life – entertaining with clear articulation, enunciation, and pronunciation. What more could you ask? Her voice is beautiful.

This is an enjoyable read with fun characters and a great plot. Shock! I am listening to a book that is not paranormal!!! It is still wonderful even without ghosts and the supernatural! Lol! A would-be actress gives up and decided to get a job that pays and she is giving up on acting. She finds a job in a investigation office. She thinks it will be boring but little did she know she would be in the middle of the case! Great fun with bits of humor sprinkled in!
The narration was very complementary to the story! Great job!!!

Book 3. Ready On Set Drama
Booker Brothers Detective Agency, Book 3
By: Maisie Dean
Narrated by: Marie Hoffman
This is an audible book I requested and the review is voluntary. These are short and clean books and sprinkled heavily with humor which makes them nice to relax with! This time Kacey really does some soul searching as she does her job. She gets a call to help investigate at a studio. Before she wanted to be an actress and had given up, mostly, to work for the detective agency. Now that she is back with the actors, the lights, etc. She isn’t sure she wants to quit looking now. In the middle of this, she has a job to do. I really liked this one. This mystery had me stumped. Great mystery. Wonderful characters that I have grown to love! The author makes them seem so realistic! A believable story and told in a very exciting way. Great book!
