About this audiobook

Angie Turner hopes her new farm-to-table restaurant can be a fresh start in her old hometown in rural Idaho. But when a goat dairy farmer is murdered, Angie must turn the tables on a bleating black sheep . . .

With three weeks until opening night for their restaurant, the County Seat, Angie and her best friend and business partner Felicia are scrambling to line up local vendors-from the farmer's market to the goat dairy farm of Old Man Moss. Fortunately, the cantankerous Moss takes a shine to Angie, as does his kid goat Precious. So when Angie hears the bloodcurdling news of foul play at the dairy farm, she jumps in to mind the man's livestock and help solve the murder. One thing's for sure, there's no whey Angie's going to let some killer get her goat . . .

    I liked this book my I have been listening to her Brooke and this male love interest Ian in this volume was supposed to be from England. He has a Scottish accent. Vi can forgive this at least it is in the UK so in the rest of the books Ian loses his Scotish accent and sounds like one of the women ñarrators. You have ruined all of these for me audio wisem I am going to have to read them myself
    You took my fun away

    Angie and her friend are opening a new restaurant in Angie’s hometown. Her grandmother had recently passed away, and Angie inherited her home. Busy with securing everything and everyone needed for the restaurant, Angie really doesn’t have time to look into a murder. But that is just what happens when the goat farmer she just met dies suspiciously. Angie had wanted to secure his cheese for her restaurant and the two were just getting to know each other. The farmer had been friends with her grandmother, and Angie feels a need to find out what happened. The mystery is a good one, but it takes a backseat to the characters, both the human ones and the animals. Angie’s friend is a chef who really doesn’t like to cook but is very good at pastries. Ian is a vet and a farmer, and a possible love interest for Angie, but then, so is the new sous chef. However, the real stars of the show are Dom the dog and Precious the goat. I hope they get more “page time” is the next book!

    I received this book for free from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.This book is the first of the series and I am glad that I got in on the beginning! The setting of this cozy is very quaint with a wonderful small town feel to it. I especially love the foodie theme along with the farm to table emphasis in this book. Angie and Felicia need to solve the mystery of who murdered old man Moss and there are quite the list of suspects because he was lovable but cantankerous too! Angie has so much to deal with, her restaurant opens in three weeks and some vendors are refusing to do business with her and the murder mystery!! Well I was quite entertained with all of this drama plus trying to figure out who the murderer was. I had my suspicions all along ..... but nevertheless enjoyed all of the drama that unfolded at the ending of this book!

    I am ready for the next installment Lynn Cahoon.

    This is the first book in a new series by Lynn Cahoon. For a first in a series, it took some time to introduce the characters and the setting which is why I did not rate this book higher. Angie Turner moves to Idaho after her grandmother has died. She is living on her farm and along with her business partner, Felicia, they plan to open a restaurant. Because of the farm setting they want the County Seat to be a farm-to-fork restaurant. Unfortunately, things are not going according to plan. The manager of the local farmer's market does not want his market vendors to get involved with these city slickers. Angie meets with a local curmudgeon, Gerald Moss, who has a goat dairy and makes cheese. He agrees to sell his cheese to the restaurant once he realizes who she is. He was friends with her grandmother. The others finally come around as well. Angie is feeling good about the opening of her restaurant until, Gerald Moss is found dead and it is determined that he was murdered. As Angie was one of the last people to see him alive and she is new in town, she thinks she needs to help solve this crime so her restaurant opens normally and this man she met gets justice.

    I like the main characters of Angie, Felicia and Ian. There are some good secondary characters as well such as her neighbours and even the Sheriff. There are plenty of cute animals (Precious the goat, Dom the St. Bernard puppy and even a chicken) to round out the characters. The mystery moves at a nice steady pace. The Farm-to-Table theme doesn't overpower the mystery, but adds to the nice, cozy feel of the story. There were plenty of suspects and a couple twists to keep the suspense going. I am glad Angie is young because between her new restaurant and the sleuthing as well as taking care of her mini zoo, she is one busy person. There is a budding romance that I hope fleshes out in the next book. Anyone who has read any of Lynn Cahoon's other series knows that her writing moves the story along swiftly with a nice plot. I did figure out who the murderer was because he was the shadiest of characters but I did not know why he did it. I will read the next to see where this series goes. A good introduction to a new series for cozy mystery lovers. The publisher generously provided me with a copy of this book via Netgalley.

    Angie and Felicia lost their restaurant in San Francisco (rent issues) so they move back to Angie's home state of Idaho and start a new restaurant where are only using farm fresh ingredients. When their goat cheese supplier turns up dead, Angie feels she needs to solve this murder especially when she starts getting threats.The characters were fun, the setting humorous and the mystery well-crafted.

    This was a fun and breezy debut mystery. Angie and her friend Felicia are readying their new farm to fork restaurant, The County Seat, when a local goat cheese provider is killed. I never thought that much like the cow v. sheep debate of the Old West, there would be a dairy cow versus goat milk cheese feelings in modern day Idaho. The setting sounds beautiful and I like Angie's growing menagerie! I am looking forward to reading more in this series.

    Friends Angie Turner and Felicia Williams have decided to start their second joint venture in the sedate little town of River Vista where Angie grew up under her grandmother’s influence. Planning a farm-to-fork restaurant, the freshest commodity they discover is the murder of the local goat farm curmudgeon.Big kudos to Lynn Cahoon, author of a new Farm-to-Fork Mysteries series beginning with Who Moved My Goat Cheese? A clean book, and one in which I was pleased to not encounter any bad language. Although this is a rule of cozies, it is one that is increasingly broken.There were some good red herrings and twists and turns, with just the right amount of what the reader may also want... enough clues to feel the author’s villain makes sense, a hint of romance, and maybe even a possible love triangle to come in future books? Cahoon includes some special touches, one that I consider a “good” cozy requirement and some others that just brought a grin to my face. The “requirement”? The cozy sleuth needs to spend as much time at her business working as she does sleuthing. Check. One special touch? The mention of Nona’s junk drawer. The second special touch is the goat being tied up outside at one point. I imagine I am not the only one whose memory of John Thompson piano lessons immediately kicks into high gear and starts hearing in my head, “Bill Gordon’s Goat...”A fun cozy and a great start to a new series. I am grateful to NetGalley and the publisher for a complimentary copy. A positive review was not required. All opinions are solely my responsibility.

    Angie Turner has just moved back home to River Vista, Idaho, along with her best friend Felicia Williams. She and Felicia are getting ready to open their new restaurant the County Seat, a farm-to-fork establishment. In order to do so, she needs to find local vendors willing to sell her their products. After a chance meeting with farmer Gerald Moss, she strikes a deal to buy his goat cheese, and goes to visit him at his farm, meeting one of his baby goats on the way. Not long after she hears from the sheriff that Moss is dead, who has come to question her about when she saw him last. Accompanying him is Ian McNeal, the owner/manager of River Vista Farmers’ Market, the place she’s been trying to get vendors through. It seems Ian is related to the sheriff, and he thought it would be easier for her if someone she knew was with the sheriff.What she does tell the sheriff is that when she was visiting with Moss on Sunday she saw the local realtor, but for some reason the realtor told the sheriff it was Saturday instead, so now he has to figure out who's telling the truth and who's lying.But when Angie is out walking her St. Bernard puppy Dom, she comes across Moss's baby goat, Precious, and takes it home with her, not seeing the rest of the goats. Later she learns the mother is dead, and Ian asks her to keep the goat, telling her it will go a long way with the locals for her to get the help she needs from the farmers' market.So she keeps Precious, but decides to figure out who wanted to murder Moss, and why the realtor was lying. When she receives a threatening note on the door of her restaurant, she knows the killer knows she's onto something, and she has to act fast or her restaurant may not open at all...I must say first that I love Lynn Cahoon, and I was really looking forward to this new series. But while it was interesting, there were some scenes that didn't make any sense - the scene with Rob Harris, the wine vendor seemed superfluous, since he's not in the book ever again - and some questions aren't answered (such as why Reana said she was there on Saturday, not Sunday). I also felt that it was too easy to figure out the murderer. If you look at the clues, you can pick it out almost immediately. The title, I believe, refers to the mysterious cheese cave that no one seems to know where it is; and for some reason they think it holds a treasure. In the end, this was a nice start to a new series, but I believe that some polishing needs to be done (For example, Angie doesn't spend any time in her restaurant, but leaves all the work to Felicia, who hates to cook).Hopefully the next in the series will give us more on the background of the characters and the town of River Vista. Recommended.
