Authors, Susan Rogers and John Roosen’s, debut installment in the Yoga Mat Mysteries series is a baffling mystery with a memorable lead and exotic setting. Elaina Williams is content teaching yoga at her newly-opened yoga school. But when one of her students, Mario Vincente, dies suddenly during the class, Elaina is plagued with guilt. The reason: Mario urgently wanted to talk to Elaina before his death. She unites with her another student Ric and begins to look into Mario’s personal life. They soon discover Mario was neck deep in some shady business. As they continue their investigation, the pair realize they are in for more than they bargained for. The gradually budding romance between Elaina and Ric is artfully handled, and the authors keep the core mystery breezing along, sprinkling it with surprising revelations and fully realized characters. Narrator Rupert Degas gives listeners a remarkable performance. He projects a range of emotions, varying his pace and pitch to portray the personalities of the diverse cast who range from a sharp detective to an eccentric academic. The mean streets of Sydney are authentically portrayed, and the authors deliver a satisfying resolution to the puzzle they construct. Endearing, well-developed lead, intriguing storyline, and a smoothly paced narrative that pulses with mystery and intrigue make this an enthralling tale full of surprises. A must-listen.
