About this listen

Menacing texts lead to murder in an English village, in this unmissable witty mystery by the Dagger Award–nominated author of A Most Unusual Demise.

May Morrigan is in her bookshop one morning when she—and everyone else in the shop—receives an anonymous text. It contains a reference to a Shakespeare quotation—and seems to be aimed at the vicar and his partner, Juan. The next morning, one of them is dead.
Meanwhile, May’s elderly mother Minty is staying with her, her old friend Fletcher, and her two dogs. To her dismay, Minty is quite preoccupied with death. She also keeps reminiscing about her past in ways that make May wonder what secrets she’s hiding.
As disturbing texts continue to arrive, the Blackheath residents are threatened with further revelations and titillations. Then Fletcher becomes the focus of the tormenting texter, and barely escapes an attempt on his life.

It’s time for May to send a strong message—and block this killer permanently...

Hilarious

I absolutely loved this book just as good as the first one. The characters are brilliantly drawn and there are some wonderful exchanges if you like quirky you will love it. I desperately hope another one comes along

A fun whodunnit with quirky characters set in a London village

London is a series of villages and I love how the author has captured Blackheath and ramped it up in this cosy crime drama. I aways love this narrator and he nailed the characters.

Wonderful

This is the second in a fabulous, blackly comedic series of murder mysteries. The cast of characters is wonderfully creative... including a transvestite romance author; handsome dwarf bookseller and an elderly motorcycle riding lady assassin. It's superbly read by Jonathan Keeble. Highly recommended.
