Overview

Renowned murder mystery playwright Bertie Carroll returns, this time in London's West End, to solve the mystery of an impossible murder and the newspaper advert that preceded it.  An unexpected phone call from a rival playwright puts Bertie centre stage in another mystery. Can he help unravel the motive behind a mysterious newspaper advert that boldly declares a murder will take place during a show's third act? There's only one problem, there is no murder in the third act of the play!  When a victim is discovered and the police are brought in, Bertie and Inspector Hugh Chapman get thrown awkwardly back together as they both work to find the killer. The spotlight falls on each suspect in turn and, this time, even Bertie is not above suspicion. But can rivalries and differences be put aside to solve this devious murder?   Following on from the success of Death on the Pier, Jamie West - the West End's resident murder mystery author - brings you the second book in this golden-age-style whodunnit series, set in the exciting world of theatreland in 1930s London. ----------------------- “A wonderfully realised crime novel in the best tradition of the Golden Age” – William Hussey “So happy to be taken back once again to that poignant lost land of nineteen-thirties theatre. And at the heart of is this perfect, impossible murder!” – J.M. Hall “A book cosy crime fans and theatre buffs will enjoy from Act One all the way through to the final curtain!” – Fiona Leitch  “Elegantly crafted and expertly plotted” – Orlando Murrin “A brilliantly entertaining 1930s whodunnit ” – Greg Mosse “Another wonderfully clever and satisfying Golden Age-inspired mystery” – Tom Mead “A stylish, charming murder mystery” – Kitty Murphy
