I Only Read Murder

Más información sobre el libro

A once-beloved television sleuth finds herself far from Hollywood and witnesses a murder during a small-town theatre production, convinced it’s up to her to solve the case. Miranda Abbott, known for her crime-solving role as a karate-chopping church pastor, faces ruin after being turned down for a cable reality show. A mysterious postcard summons her to Happy Rock, a small Pacific Northwest town, but nothing is as expected. In dire straits, she joins an amateur production at the Happy Rock Little Theatre, vying for the lead against the local real estate agent. On opening night, one actor is murdered live in front of the audience, yet no one saw what happened. Everyone becomes a suspect, including the sardonic town doctor, a high-school drama teacher, an oil-stained mechanic, an elderly gentleman with possible CIA ties, and Miranda herself. To unravel the mystery, Miranda must tap into her skills as television’s Pastor Fran and enlist the help of her new sidekick, Susan, a shy bookstore clerk who seems to know everyone’s secrets. With the show must go on, the duo embarks on a comedic journey to uncover the truth.
