Editor

This lively Tudor mystery – and first in a new series – featuring gossip, treachery and tragedy at the court of Henry VIII is a page-turning delight! Court jester Will Somers brings a unique energy to the scandal and upset at court through his sharp eyes and wit, and this irresistible new super sleuth also knows a trick or two when it comes to catching a killer…

Invitation to a Killer

Vic Britton
Senior Commissioning Editor

Crime writer turned amateur sleuth Augusta Hawke is back and once again finds herself embroiled in another mystery. Malliet does not disappoint with her second Augusta Hawke mystery – the wit and dry sense of humour of her female protagonist is a joy to read as she navigates the colourful array of dinner guests – and potential murderers! – while trying to avoid becoming a victim herself. I can’t wait for readers to get stuck into this cosy mystery.
