The brand-new murder mystery in the Sunday Times bestselling series. *** An impossible death. A seaside town on the brink. Stay tuned for murder…

Sidmouth is gearing up for summer – but murder is all year round…

When a doctor is found dead in the woods, shot through the heart with a crossbow, his wife is the prime suspect, despite an ironclad alibi. Desperate to clear her name, she appeals to radio presenter Edward Temmis for help.

But Edward has troubles of his own. With his beloved radio station in crisis and a mysterious motorbike crash on the seafront, the doctor’s death is the least of his worries.

Edward, Kim and Stevie must reunite on a treacherous path to uncover the truth. Can they solve the case before everything tumbles down?

Perfect for fans of Richard Osman, Anthony Horowitz and Agatha Christie-style murder mysteries.

Love the twists and turns. And I think changing the notator was a good idea. Well worth a listen.
