What to expect
'Brims with Hallett's signature wit. Her best book yet' - PETER SWANSON
'Devilishly additive. I loved every line' - LOUISE CANDLISH
'The modern Queen of Crime does it again' - IAN MOORE
The answer is murder.
The question is whodunnit?
A quiet country pub stands empty, its windows boarded up. And its kindly landlords,
Mal and Sue Eastwood, are missing.
What could have happened? A lot of strange events occurred in the days before the
Eastwoods disappeared. A murdered man pulled from the nearby river. An eccentric
couple on a houseboat who claimed to be led by a spirit guide. And a mysterious new
team who suddenly appeared and began winning every round at the weekly pub quiz -
much to the anger of the locals. They must have been cheating, but no one could figure
out how...
Can you crack the case of the missing landlords? Someone's not been playing fair, so
get the drinks in and see if you can get a perfect score.
'Another brilliant, twisty mystery from Janice Hallett' - ELLY GRIFFITHS
'So clever and entertaining' - JENNIE GODFREY
'You'll never look at pub quizzes the same way again' - VASEEN KHAN
