Orange cosy mysteries

This week was brought to you by orange cosy mysteries… or so it would seem?

With the release of The Impossible Fortune by Richard Osman and Fright on Stage Right by G. B. Ralph, it’s a bumper week for fans of cosy mysteries and the colour orange, that’s for sure!

This week was brought to you by orange cosy mysteries (apparently). Orange book cover images: Fright on Stage Right (The Milverton Mysteries 4) by G. B. Ralph and The Impossible Fortune (Thursday Murder Club 5) by Richard Osman.

Will you buy one or both? Treat yourself!

But considering I only wrote one of them, let me tell you about that book:

Fright on Stage Right (A Milverton Mystery) by G. B. Ralph. Cover image and description/blurb. It’s opening night at the theatre and Addison Harper has front-row seats with Sergeant Jake Murphy. This might just be his perfect date. The variety show promises spooky Halloween fun, ghoulish drag queens, frightening musical numbers, and the scariest thing of all: audience participation. Of course, the unlucky victim dragged from the safety of his seat is a mortified Addison. In a production full of twists and turns, he has no idea what’s coming next but nobody could have anticipated witnessing a sudden, absolutely unscripted, and very real death. A dreadful accident? Or was it foul play? As the curtain falls before a horror-struck audience, Addison Harper finds himself once again in the spotlight at centre stage.
