    Having arrived in Turin, Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson first checked into their accommodation and then immediately set off to speak with Cardinal Fassati. It transpired that only three people possessed a key to the Shroud Chapel: the Cardinal himself and two of his closest confidants, the elderly Pastor Spina and a younger pastor named Milani.
    When Watson went out for an evening walk with his dog, he made a discovery in the park. 13 men had gathered around a table and were dining. One of them was wearing the Shroud of Turin. The case appeared to be solved, but additional duplicates of the missing shroud quickly surfaced. When a dead body was found in the chapel on Good Friday, the entire case took quite a different turn...

    A “Dead is the New Fabulous” Mystery (#2) 
    “Lindsay Maracotta has created in Lucy an exhilarating smart and sassy character. Her insider’s take crackles with fresh insight and laugh-out-loud one-liners.” —Janet Evanovich, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author 
    “Killingly amusing. Lindsay Maracotta wields the sharpest tongue since Nora Ephron banged out Heartburn. The book’s social observations are right on the money.” —The Chicago Tribune 
    Lucy Frampton just wants to make animated movies and to raise as functional a family as possible in the midst of Hollywood’s special brand of madness. Unfortunately, when her producer-husband Kit scores his first blockbuster movie, he is stricken with the dreaded "Mogus Virus"—(a common ailment!), which compels seemingly down-to-earth people to hire personal chefs and trainers and share enough air-kisses to inflate the Hindenburg. And adding to the crazy is the suspicious on-location death of his director, the much-despised whiz-kid Jeremy Lord. What’s a rational wife to do? 
    Suddenly Lucy's only hope of maintaining some semblance of domestic bliss is to dive alone into the Pacific Palisades shark pool of actors, agents, industry honchos, lavish spenders, spoiled brats, ex-wives and voluptuous nannies, and surface with the killer. Her only weapon in this ocean of sex, lies, and camera phones is her irreverence and smarts —and they may not be formidable enough to protect Lucy from the dangerous predator who's circling....

    It’s a perfect location for… murder 
    When sisters Jennifer and Lizzie Christie inherit their aunt’s dilapidated B&B, in the beautiful Lake District village of Lupton Water, the only thing they have in common is how much they hate their housemate, aDeclan Moss. 
    The two of them fell out thirty years before, and now they’re mid-life, mid-menopause, and about to be mid-disaster. And not just because Jennifer’s cat Clementine and Rose’s dog Gizmo have taken an instant dislike to each other. 
    But when Declan’s body is found in the bathtub, the sisters are top of the suspect list. Can they and their pets bury the hatchet long enough to find out who the killer is? Or will they become the next victims? 
    The first in the Christie Sisters Mysteries series, perfect for fans of MC Beaton and Faith Martin.Praise for Katie Marsh: 
    ‘Mystery and intrigue. This talented author has written a cannot put down whodunit.’ Reader review 
    ‘Clever and twisty, I loved how each of the main characters used their strengths to get closer to the killer, and it’s laugh out loud funny. I thought I’d worked out whodunnit and then was proved sort-of right and also wrong. The ending is a great mix of drama and hilarity, and I’m already looking forward to the next one.’ Reader review
