About this listen

A retired librarian turned detective. A sarcastic orange cat. A dead body in a locked bar in a charming seaside town full of secrets.

The champion of Oceanview Cove's first boat racing tournament barely has time to celebrate his victory before he's found dead inside the locked Salty Breeze. And like the killer who vanished without a trace, a hundred thousand dollars in prize money is nowhere to be found. For Jim Butterfield and his feline partner Ginger, this case defies all logic.

As they investigate the impossible crime, each clue only adds to their confusion. They learn the champion hid his prize money after the race, but in a case where everyone has an alibi and nothing makes sense, Jim and Ginger must look beyond the obvious to discover the truth hiding in plain sight.

Can our detective duo solve this locked-room mystery and recover the missing money before the killer finds it first?

The Body in the Bar is the sixth book in the Jim and Ginger cozy mystery series full of twists and fun. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie and Richard Osman.
