About this listen

The next instalment in the Village Detectives Cozy Mystery Series from Fiona Walker

We regret to announce the tragic death of Phoebe Fredericks…

When crime novelist Phoebe opens the post and receives an invitation to her own funeral, she’s horrified. Not least because the date of her death is marked as tomorrow.

Deciding it’s nothing more than a prank from an enemy from her past, she determines to put it to the back of her mind.

But the next morning, when her completely infuriating postman (who likes to think himself her no.1 literary critic) rings her doorbell, a parcel of poisoned pen-nibs explodes in his face. Forced to confront the fact her correspondence is more RIP than RSVP, Phoebe realises someone must want her dead.

Together with the newly-formed Village Detectives – Juno, Mil and Felix – Phoebe resolves to find out who is behind the poison pen letters before they strike again and her fate is signed, sealed and delivered!

An totally hilarious, modern cozy crime mystery, from million-copy bestselling author Fiona Walker, perfect for fans of Richard Osman, Janet Evanovich and Janice Hallett.

Excellent story, engaging characters and good narration. The recording is occasionally a bit dodgy - whoever produced this didn't double check the final version for errors and there were at least 2 times when the blooper was left in by accident. It didn't really impact my overall enjoyment of the book though.

Excellent story

Even the Liberal dotting of the (presumably demanded) wokey rubbish hasn't put me off my urge to buy number 3, such was the fun of the story. Enjoyed it alot.

A good follow-up to book 1.

Good twist

...whose voice was so downbeat and dreary it sucked all the life out of the story. I had to keep rewinding. Gutted because I love Fiona Walker's books and this series has great characters

Story spoiled for me by the reader...
