'Utterly hilarious and thrillingly disgusting' Miriam Margoyles

'Perfectly ridiculous and very funny' Dawn French

An unsolved case. A plot to win the ratings. But will it end in murder?

Jayne enjoys her new job as a researcher on popular daytime TV programme Morning All!, but the usual fare of cookery and fashion items are a bit bland and ratings are plummeting.

So when Jayne comes up with the idea for a segments investigating cold case murders - where the viewers can help to solve the mystery - the show knows they've hit the jackpot.

The trouble is, these cutthroat execs will do anything to keep the newly boosted ratings. And when a fresh case is needed, and fast, it might just turn to murder...

After reading Julian’s previous book, I've been waiting very impatiently for this latest story. It has not disappointed. So funny. Great characters, great narrators. Love this type of humour with its insight into TV world. I've experienced it myself and this is so true to the characters and mad circumstances of that world. Thanks for great entertainment.
…..being a nosey body would love to know what caused the narrator change of Thelma or Selma(?!) around the 5hr 20 min mark……

Just Fantastic. Great fun listen.

If you have not yet read Curtain Call to Murder then please do so before reading this - equally entertaining, funny and captivating it tells the story of Jayne as she moves through her career to this promotion.
The twists and turns keep you guessing, we’ve nearly all met a boss like Jaynes so can relate, and I loved the little additional inputs by Julian with either explanations of what a word or phrase means and the ‘ads’.
A very clever writer and his wit seems to have no end. We definitely need more from Julian.

A storyline to keep you guessing

Absolutely brilliant. Julian's promos and the show presenters segment sign offs are gold. I really do hope Julian writes more books. Well done to everyone involved. 👏

Warning! Be careful listening with headphones in public - Likely to cause unpredictable outbursts of laughter!

Many laugh out loud bits, safer to listen or read it at home. No part of showbiz left alone ;)

Very funny
