Synopsis

A sleuthing librarian and her friends embark on a fun-filled trip to a holiday camp—but death isn't taking a holiday . . .

June 1998: Elodie Marshall has committed a terrible crime. But when she's deemed unfit to plead, she is sentenced to living within the confines of a mental health facility . . .

Present day: Amateur detective Pru Pearce and her friends from the Winterbottom Women's Institute are about to embark on their annual getaway. The 1960s Butlins-style Harmony Hollows Resort has caught their attention for a few reasons, including the northern ballroom championships and the unsolved double murder from 1983.

But what the women thought was just a cold case soon steps into the present when a murderer, dubbed The Grim Sleeper, strikes. Soon, Pru and the other WI women are dragged deeper into the mysteries of both the past and present-day murders. But this is no evening entertainment—this is real life, and everyone is in danger . . .

Can Pru uncover the truth before another innocent camper is offed? Or are her friends destined to meet a grisly end?

This killer comedy is the latest in the series of "warm, cozy crime capers" by the author of the Constable Mavis Upton novels.

And there was so much to love with this one. Not one, not two, but six or so delightful lady "detectives" sticking their noses in a case they weren't supposed to be investigating. A handsome cop is trying to solve the case but is just a little behind his lovely, untrained wife and her friends. An un......more

Here we are with Book 4 of the Prunella Pierce Mysteries, and this was a perfect read to cosy up with a blanket, a hot drink, and some munchies.

Goodreads review by Maleen on March 24, 2025

Let's be honest...I just didn't care about this book or what happened in it. I picked it up on Libby because it was available, but it didn't mention that it was the fourth book in the series. That didn't matter really. There were allusions to the previous books, but the story was fine on its own. Ho......more
