Summary
 * THE HUGELY ANTICIPATED SEQUEL TO THE SMASH-HIT BESTSELLER, THE APPEAL *

A New Play. Another Murder. Who Will Speak the Truth?

It's a new theatrical season in Lower Lockwood, and the amateur thespians of the Fairway Players are starting rehearsals for their production of Agatha Christie's The Hollow. Despite divisive new arrivals, countless petty jealousies and a near-fatal accident with the lighting rig, surely this will be their greatest show to date?

But someone isn't going to make it to opening night. Could it be producer Sarah-Jane's mysterious sister, lately arrived home after twenty years abroad? New member Lucas, whose shady business dealings may be his downfall? Or perhaps once-convicted murderer Issy Beck, recently acquitted but still up to her old tricks?

Lawyers Charlotte and Femi must sift through the emails, texts and police reports to identify the victim and find out why the person convicted of the murder refuses to speak out in their own defence... Will they uncover the truth in time? Will you?©2026 Janice Hallett (P)2026 Profile Books Limited Amateur Sleuths Cosy Crime Crime Thrillers Genre Fiction Murder Mystery Small Town & Rural Thriller & Suspense

I really enjoyed this. The different voices for the characters were really helpful in this correspondence type of book, and helped to distinguish them and form a better understanding of them. The story is clever, funny and really interesting- I love how it is set in an am dram cast which enables so many interesting characters and storylines entangle themselves together. Brilliant

Fantastic audio of a great story
