"Grief can change us... rewire our brains and shift the way we look at the world..." A dead chef. A ruined gala. And the ghosts didn't see a thing. As Oxford's new Head of Ceremonies, Natalie Payne's first task is to organize St Margaret's autumn gala. However, her plans are dashed when she finds their famed chef dead in the kitchen. And then a centuries-old cat informs Nat she has her own magical legacy...and responsibilities. A murder in the halls is a sure sign that something has gone wrong with Oxford's magical protections. Now Nat has to solve the murder, find a new chef for the gala, and figure out why Oxford’s magical defenses are down. With the help of Oxford's magical Eternals and some new friends, Nat has a chance. But can she do it before St Margaret loses its connection to the magic of Oxford? If you like cozy mysteries where ghosts walk the halls, paintings come to life, creatures play, and magic seems within reach, the Oxford Key Mysteries are sure to delight.

 Originally from Newcastle-Upon-Tyne in Northeast England, audiobook narrator Pearl Hewitt currently lives with her husband and two children in Houston, Texas. Over the years she has worked as a customer service rep, a teaching assistant, and a teacher, but deep down there was always a performer wanting to get out. In 2007 her twelve-year-old son told her that he believed she was so good at reading stories out loud that she should do that as a job. That was her defining, eureka moment, and she's never looked back. Pearl immersed herself in training and pursued a career in general voice acting but in 2012 she decided to focus her attention to narrating audiobooks in a wide range of genres. It was then that her professional career blossomed. She regularly works directly with indie authors but also narrates for a number of major publishers and has gained lots of recognition in the process including IAAIS awards, a Voice Arts Award nomination and Audiofile Magazine reviews. Pearl's is comfortable narrating both fiction and non-fiction titles and has been very successful reading British Regency romance, cozy murder mysteries, fantasy/science fiction, children's literature, the classics, history, biographies and more.

This was my first Lynn Morrison's book, and won't be my last. This is the first book in the Oxford Key mysteries Series. This is an excellent paranormal cozy mystery, filled with magic, and twists and turns. Natalie, the main character, is smart, determined, and capable. The supporting characters are intriguing. I liked Natalie's friends Kate and Mathilde. The plot is well crafted, and captivating. The storyline is original, and interesting. In addition to the excellent writing, Pearl Hewitt did a fantastic job with the narration. Her range of voices is impressive. This is a great team author/narrator. I enjoyed it, and I am looking forward to listening to Burglary at Barnard, the next book in the series. If you like paranormal cozy mysteries, this series is for you.
