"Everyone always says that your honeymoon should be a holiday to remember… 'This is a cosy series which is like a hug, I love the main protagonists and the locations’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'The characters are what draw me back to this series, and also the humour’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ *** Ex-Metropolitan Police sergeant Jodie Parker and her new husband, DCI Nathan Withers, are honeymooning at a luxurious eco-resort on a secluded Cornish island. But there's a twist: they're undercover, as the resort’s owner has hired them to investigate a series of sabotages, and Jodie's mum Shirley and daughter Daisy – and their dog, Germaine – have somehow managed to get themselves invited along too. The happy couple plan to make the most of the five star facilities, while discreetly questioning staff and guests. However, when a fierce storm traps everyone on the island, tragedy strikes – a guest is found dead in the wreckage of the boathouse, and it looks like murder… With a killer among them, it’s up to Jodie and Nathan to solve the mystery before another life is lost.

Absolutely fantastic.' Jonathan Whitelaw, author of The Bingo Hall Detectives 'Leitch’s writing had me snorting with laughter and whizzing through the pages!'

[German] - Der Tod verlangt Applaus - Nosey Parker ermittelt-Reihe, Band 3 (Ungekürzt)
"Wenn man Hals und Beinbruch zu wörtlich nimmt ... In Cornwall geht es mit der Cosy Crime-Reihe humorvoll weiter Die Aufregung im sonst so idyllischen Cornwall ist groß, als ein Film in Jodie 'Nosey' Parkers Heimatdorf gedreht werden soll. Beinahe alle Bewohner werden prompt als Statisten eingespannt und auch Jodie und ihre Familie sind mit von der Partie. Zumindest bis sich der Caterer am Set in einem seltsamen Unfall das Bein bricht. Natürlich springt Jodie gern ein, kann aber das Gefühl nicht abschütteln, dass irgendetwas nicht stimmt. Immer mehr kleine Missgeschicke und Unfälle geschehen, und als schließlich einer der Schauspieler ermordet wird, weiß Jodie, dass ihre feine Spürnase viel mehr gebraucht wird als ihre Kochkünste. Wer versucht den Film zu sabotieren und ist bereit dazu über Leichen zu gehen? Und viel wichtiger - hat der Täter schon sein nächstes Opfer im Visier? Alle Bände der Nosey Parker ermittelt-Reihe können unabhängig voneinander gehört werden. Spannend, lustig und very british - auch im dritten Band steckt diese gemütliche Cozy Crime Hörbuch Fortsetzung aus England voller skurriler Figuren, cleverer Plot Twists und einem Mordfall, der Jodies Spürsinn erneut auf eine harte Probe stellt.

The Cornish Christmas Pantomime Murder
"Pantomime season has arrived in the brand new hilarious cozy murder mystery from Fiona Leitch. 'Murder and mayhem are rarely this enjoyable. Another fantastic entry in this brilliant series that solidifies Leitch as one of the very best and funniest writers around’ Jonathan Whitelaw ‘A wonderful seasonal romp’ Ian Moore It’s Christmas in Penstowan, and local amateur dramatics group the Penstowan Players are putting on their annual pantomime. This year it’s ‘Aladdin’, and half the town have been drafted in to help, including Shirley Parker, who only has a small part in the chorus but will no doubt upstage everybody, and Tony Penhaligon, who’s treading the boards as the baddie, Abanazar. Ex-Metropolitan police officer turned caterer Jodie Parker has managed to get away with not appearing, but only if she agrees to cater the opening night party. But it’s not just terrible jokes, quick costume changes and backstage chaos that wait in the wings… When the Widow Twankey (otherwise known as Tim, the mayor’s husband) trips over a corpse lying next to Aladdin’s bloodstained magic lamp, it’s time for Jodie and her partner, DCI Nathan Withers, to find the killer. Was it the genie of the lamp or an overly harsh theatre critic? Or does someone in the Penstowan Players have a dark secret they will do anything to protect? ‘Funnier than panto, more warming than a glass of mulled wine and a mince pie and completely gripping.

Brilliant’ Jonathan Whitelaw, author of The Bingo Hall Detectives ‘A terrific summer read… a thumping good whodunnit; this is a murder mystery that wears a flower in its hair and invites us to kick off our shoes’ J.M.
