Midsummer Mayhem
by Marty Wingate

Escape to a beautiful garden oasis with this page-turning cozy mystery. From a USA Today bestselling author!

Meet Prunella ‘Pru’ Parke, an American gardener who digs up murder and mystery wherever she goes.

It’s a real ‘pinch me’ moment for Pru. A troupe of famous actors in her tiny village. Staging an open-air performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Starring the legendary — and totally dreamy — Ambrose Grant!

To top it all, they want Pru to create the magical woodland set. She jumps at the chance: only to realize, the real drama is about to unfold backstage.

A philandering cast member turns up dead! One look at the body — slathered in honey and bee stings — and Pru realizes this death was no accident.

Now it’s up to Pru to weed out the killer from a starry list of suspects. On a set where everyone is playing a part, she’s got her work cut out. Pru soon finds herself on the trail of a ruthless murderer who won’t let anyone keep them from stopping the show . . . dead.

Can she catch them — or is this the final curtain for Pru?

If you love Rosie Sandler, Sarah Yarwood-Lovett, Agatha Christie, The Thursday Murder Club, Kate Carlisle, Simon Brett or Tonya Kappes, prepare to be hooked by this enchanting character-driven mystery!
