Mistletoe and Murder – the Audiobook!

November 30, 2016

I’m hard at work on the second draft of The Guggenheim Mystery (more on that soon, I promise!), but yesterday I got to take a break for the most exciting reason.

Some of you have been asking about a Mistletoe and Murder audiobook, and I can now confirm that it is definitely happening. It’ll be released on the 14th of December (in time for Christmas!), and this week it’s being recorded in a special studio in Puffin Towers – and I got to go along to listen in!

The book is being read by an actor who I absolutely love, Katie Leung (Potter fans will recognise her as Cho Chang!). Katie read Jolly Foul Play beautifully, so I’m delighted to have her back for Mistletoe and Murder. When I went in yesterday she was reading the moment the murderer is revealed, and it was just as exciting as I’d imagined when I was writing it. Needless to say, Katie is a wonderful person as well as an excellent actor, and I’m so pleased to have her reading Hazel’s words.

Below is a picture of me and Katie in the (super glam) editing studio. As you can see, I was very happy to be there!
