Murder Offstage: A Cozy Historical Murder Mystery

Written by L.B. Hathaway

Narrated by Clare Wille

In the dangerous world of 1920s London, you've to act for your life...

Valentine's Day, 1921

When Posie Parker’s childhood friend is robbed of a priceless jewel and becomes a suspect in a cold-blooded murder case, budding detective Posie vows she will clear his name. Aided by her seriously gorgeous assistant Len, Posie soon realizes things are not quite as they seem, and the darkly-glamorous world of London’s theatre and glittering nightclubs prove far more dangerous than she ever could have imagined.

Just who exactly is the dangerous Lucky Lucy Gibson? And who is it she has killed in the lobby of the Ritz Hotel? And more importantly, what on earth has happened to Mr Minks, the much-loved office cat?

Like your mysteries cozy and set during the Golden Age of Crime? This is the first book in the Posie Parker mysteries, although this novel can be enjoyed as a stand-alone story in its own right. Set in London in 1921, 'Murder Offstage' is full of intrigue and red herrings.

Reviews for Murder Offstage

[Claudia Vasconcelos Varjotie · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Well written. It keeps the audience hooked on it all the way. Just a few not so engaging moments, but very entertaining. Will listen to the others of the series.

[Elizabeth Barnard · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Entertaining and light. Excellent narrator with a very nice variety of accents

[Elizabeth Rundle · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Such a nice old fashioned mystery with a twist at the end.

[Gloriana · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

After finishing the delightful “Lady Hardcastle” historical cozy series I was on the hunt for a similar read. This was a very pleasing discovery. Posie Parky (A nosy Parker) is a fun character. And the narrator does a great job reading the story. I am looking forward to the next book.

[Mari Melting · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Whilst a bit over the top for a cozy mystery it was still intriguing enough to make me want to read the next episode in the series.

[Sandy Allin · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

The story line was very good, twists and turns.
I would give this book 5 stars, except the author does not stick to the period she is writing about

[The Book Report · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Charming and light, this book is the coziest of the cozies. Enjoyable

[Jeannie · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

I didn’t like the protagonist. Her character didn’t match the time period of the book.

[Helen · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Excellent storyline, vividly brought to life by Clare Wille. Characters well-drawn in authentic period detail.
