Good news, Murder Most Unladylike fans! I sent the first draft of Murder Most Unladylike 5 to my editor a few weeks ago, and she’s just let me know that 1) she likes it and 2) she didn’t guess the murderer! I’m very relieved, and looking forward to working on edits over the next month or so.
We’ve set a firm date for its publication, too: it will be out in the UK and Ireland on 20th October 2016. Although we’re still finalising title and cover, I know that it will be red, because this is Hazel and Daisy’s first Christmas adventure!
From the Amazon description:
Daisy Wells and Hazel Wong are spending the Christmas hols in snowy Cambridge. Hazel has high hopes of its beautiful spires, cosy libraries and inviting tea-rooms – but there is danger lurking in the dark stairwells of ancient Maudlin College.
Three nights before Christmas, there is a terrible accident. At least, it appears to be an accident – until the Detective Society look a little closer, and realise a murder has taken place. Faced with several irritating grown-ups and fierce competition from a rival agency, they must use all their cunning and courage to find the killer (in time for Christmas Day, of course).
And although we don’t yet have a title (stay tuned for that reveal soon!), you can pre-order the book NOW!
This is a book that I’ve loved writing, and one that I can’t wait to share with you all. It may seem like a long way away now, but the time will fly. It’ll be October before you know it!
