Summary

The brand new hilarious instalment in the Pie & Mash Detective series, perfect for fans of Richard Thorogood, Janice Hallett and Richard Osman.

A murder mystery weekend is meant to be fiction. At Spencer Hall, it’s about to become very real . . .

When the actor playing the Butler disappears mid-performance - just days after his predecessor died in a freak accident - the cast start whispering about a curse on the role: The Butler’s Curse.

Luckily, The Pie & Mash Detective Agency are on the scene.

With suspicious actors, clues that don’t add up, and dark secrets emerging from backstage, Jane Pye and Simon Mash can’t ignore that the show is going off script.

Trapped in a crumbling country house, the detectives must work together to sneak behind the curtain and untangle fact from fantasy – without unravelling their partnership along the way.

Will they crack the case of the 'curse'? Finish the murder mystery they paid several hundred pounds to play? And possibly even . . . solve their first murder?

Critic reviews

Who knew that murder could be such a hoot? Hilarious and ingenious in equal measure, the Pie and Mash Mysteries are a real treat. You're going to love them
Treat yourself to a second slice of splendid, laugh-out-loud mayhem. Beneath the crisp, murderous crust you'll find a rich filling of character, bold comedy and warmth. It's a joy
A brilliant murder mystery that is as funny as it is tense. Pacy, gripping and wickedly funny. I was unable to stop turning the pages as much as I unable to stop laughing.
A fantastic murder mystery, all within a murder mystery. Brilliantly good fun and written with such craft and warmth, you'll be hooked from the very start
Not your average cosy crime novel. A mischievous delight
Clever, funny, and full of surprises
Absolutely delightful! Fast, funny, mysterious and genuinely intriguing
A clever cosy crime novel with a distinctive and elegant comic edge, full of wit and a lot of heart. The two main characters have both depth and charm, and I loved the development of their relationship as they solved this imaginative mystery. Really looking forward to the next in the series!
Twisty and hilarious, the perfect blend of mystery and mischief!
Wonderfully eccentric, chaotic murder-mystery fun! I have the sudden urge to book onto a murder mystery weekend! A delightful serving of Pye and Mash with a dramatic dollop of amateur theatricals - it's the perfect combination!
