About this listen

Oxford, 1963. In a dimly lit backstreet club, the crowd dances the night away to their favourite band’s infectious rhythm. But behind the music, trouble is brewing. Bandmates clash, two possessive girlfriends plot their next move, and the club manager pockets profits on the sly. Then, a tragic accident claims the life of the lead singer.

But was it truly an accident? Coroner Clement Ryder is suspicious. WPC Trudy Loveday realises there’s only one way to uncover the truth – going undercover into the shadowy depths of Oxford’s nightlife.

Meanwhile, Clement’s own secret is becoming increasingly difficult to keep hidden. And when the truth about the singer’s death finally comes to light, it might not be the only shock in store for Trudy…

A gripping, twisty cosy crime novel, perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Richard Osman and M.C. Beaton.

‘A brilliant book! The pairing of Ryder and Loveday is a stroke of genius.’ Clare Chase, author of the Eve Mallow and Tara Thorpe mysteries©2022 Faith Martin (P)2022 HarperCollins Publishers Limited Amateur Sleuths Crime Crime Thrillers Fiction Mystery Thriller Thriller & Suspense Murder Detective Celebrity Tear-jerking Suspense

Having read / listened to the entire series, I have so enjoyed all of them. So many dead ends and rethinks. Not happy the series has ended!

Have loved the series. Have enjoyed that the characters have been so relatable. Am really sad to see the series end…I felt the ending left so much unfinished that I’m hoping there’s another book so I can see what happens next.

Good twists

I do so prefer the ordinary people in this world doing excellent jobs of work to solve crimes.

An excellent "who done it"

Such a good listen - who done it?
