By Nadishka Aloysius
When a Murder Mystery Party takes a tragic turn two friends must work against the clock to unearth a devious killer before they themselves become the next victims.
Three months after the initial events of Book 1, Kiyama Fernando, an English teacher from Colombo, has settled in to small-town life with her best friend Vinodhini Dias while attempting to escape a failed marriage. However, the peace and solitude among the paddy fields and lush scenery is about to change as the two amateur sleuths are faced with another puzzle.
Hoping to enjoy a short vacation, the two friends participate in a murder mystery party that turns out to be more than they bargained for…
What do you do when an event goes tragically wrong?
When the guests are due to depart in 48 hours?
When a killer is lurking in the background?
Embodying all the elements of a cozy mystery this tale will appeal to those who enjoy a light-hearted, fast-paced read with contemporary social issues, memorable characters and a unique setting.
Perfect for fans of Amanda Jayatissa, Harriet Steel, and Alexander McCall Smith
Praise for Book 1
“The story is as much about solving the mystery as it is about self actualisation and empowerment.”
” I liked the intimate feel of a small, conservative, Sri Lankan village with its quirky denizens.”
“This whodunnit story had me reading late into the night! I just couldn’t put it down! As each suspect was slowly eliminated, I was surprised to find an unexpected villain.”
