About this listen

Francesca Eve thought that she was prepared for anything, at the events that she caters for, in her pretty little Shropshire village.

Missing canapes? No problem. Burnt brownies? A piece of cake....But a dead body? Now that’s a recipe for disaster.

Francesca is nervous about catering her first-ever murder mystery party - but it’s clear from the clink of champagne flutes and piles of empty plates that the evening is a roaring success. The guests look spectacular in their disguises, whispering and giggling, as they try to identify who killed the beautiful, young Becky. But days later, the game takes a sinister turn, when Becky is found poisoned, and all the signs point to the culprit being a party guest.

From the woman having an affair, to the guest hiding her true identity, everyone had a secret - and it turns out that Becky knew them all. As Fran finds herself center-stage in a real-life murder mystery, the finger of suspicion points at each guest in turn. And Fran starts to wonder, were any of these secrets dangerous enough to kill for?

Then, the body of a second guest is found, and it becomes clear a deranged killer is going off-script. It seems anyone who was involved in the game that night is in their sights, even Fran. Can she unmask the murderer before the final curtain falls?

A cozy mystery packed with twists. If you love Clare Chase, M.C. Beaton, and The Thursday Murder Club, you’ll absolutely adore this whodunnit.

Decent journey, unsatisfying ending.

I can't say much without spoilers, but what was ramping up to be an good mystery deflated near the last fourth of the book.

not for me

I couldn't get into this story. The plot and characters do not seem realistic.
