About this listen

As the stage is set for a local village play in a beautiful countryside manor, Melissa Craig plays the role of detective once again when one of the cast is mysteriously murdered....

Melissa is delighted when she’s asked to help put on a play at her favorite local Cotswolds hotel. There’s nothing she loves more than getting to know the cast, who are just as colorful behind the scenes as they are onstage.

Rehearsals are running smoothly until the perpetually grumpy supporting actor is found spread-eagle at the bottom of a steep flight of stairs leading to a cellar.

As Melissa tries in vain to save his life, she is sure she can hear voices nearby and suspects there is more to this accident than meets the eye. Why on earth was he trying to get down to the hotel’s private cellar? And why does the hotel manager seem so angry about it?

When the hotel floor plans deliver some unexpected revelations, Melissa is convinced that she’s dealing with a murder. But when all of your suspects are actors, how can you tell the good liars from the bad? Can Melissa find the killer before the final curtain falls?

If you’ve devoured books by Agatha Christie, Faith Martin, and P. D. James, you won’t be able to resist this pause-resisting murder mystery!

This book was previously published as Exhaustive Enquiries.

Whimsical Story

The performance was excellent! The characters were distinctive and comical. The story line was interesting yet not evocative. A nice relaxing read.

Great cozy series.

I am enjoying this series with Maggie because she is so refreshingly in control even when things go nasty. This is a great story with lots of twists and red herrings, just like the books Maggie writes.

Didn’t care for the narrator.

I understand that this series and the narrator are very highly rated. However, I am sorry but I did not care for the narrator. At times I had difficulty understanding her. She has a low voice and she often seems to have low energy which makes her difficult to comprehend.
