About this listen

 Lights, camera, murder

In the Lake District, someone’s laying on a deadly welcome…

The cast and crew of a popular TV crime drama are shooting in the Lake District – but behind the scenes, relationships are as tense as on-screen. The director’s reputation proceeds him, the two lead stars are feuding and rumours swirl.

Meanwhile the locals are enjoying the filming – Amita Kahtri and her friends from Penrith Bingo Club are becoming social media stars with their behind the scenes pictures from filming – although her son-in-law, Jason is taking it all with a pinch of salt.

But when on-screen slaughter gets swapped for real-life murder at the concert hall where the TV drama is based, and the genuine police are as baffled as the TV detectives, it falls to the locals to search for the truth. It seems like a taste of fame can be deadly – but what happens when a killer’s plots are wilder than anything the writers can dream up?

Love, love, love this series, this is the best so far. All the regular characters are likeable and I’m always so sad to come to the end.
Please hurry and write the next book! 😊

A slightly different take on a cosy amateur sleuth mystery. Well read by the narrator, brilliant characters and story. Well worth a listen.

Brilliant

Another belter from JD Whitelaw - I really love this series of books, and again brilliantly narrated by Sid Sagar. The two main characters, Jason and Amita, just get better and better. As usual, they bicker their way through the book, sparking off each other to solve the mystery. Their new adventures see them chasing down the killer of a famous TV director, and needless to say, they get into lots of scrapes and adventures along the way. The other regular characters are all still there to give their opinions on matters, and, of course, they are the thorn in the side of DI Arendonk. It's a cracking plot with lots of red herrings and diversions, and a twisty ending. A real gem in the genre of cosy crime.

Great story and outstanding narration

What an awful book, I only read through to the end because I'd paid for it. I'm stunned that it's getting 5-star reviews, just can't imagine the lack of reading that would inspire an individual to rate this highly. It's my first and last book by this author.

Drab characters, dull dialogue, narrator did well.

The okay story is ruined by political correctness, an extreme refusal to portray the busyboywoman in any sort of negative light and too many predictable crime fiction clichés.

Politically correct, trite garbage
