I am delighted to kick off the blog tour for Supper for Six by the aptly named Fiona Sherlock.
The story pulls the reader in by taking the form of a podcast meaning that the story is revealed in tantalisingly controlled little bites!
I loved the setting of Lady Sybil Anderson’s Mayfair apartment – and I can imagine how exquisite this would be if it were made into theatre show or a one off TV drama. The opulence and apparel of the era came across well – as did the inconvenient powercut.
As the evening unfolds, so does the mystery and many an exploit is uncovered. This unique take on the murder mystery will delight and entertain in equal measure.
Overall, this surprisingly scintillating crime thriller/mystery has a charm all of its own and I thank Hodder Books and Fiona Sherlock for letting me be a part of this blog tour.
Blurb: When Lady Anderson invites five guests to her apartment in Bruton Square, Mayfair, none of the guests know why they have been summoned. And it isn’t long before dinner turns DEADLY.
From the author of Twelve Motives for Murder comes another brilliant immersive murder mystery.
Supper for Six . . . but murder is on the menu
London, 1977: Agapanthus and Francois Langford, Jeremy Crowley, Elizabeth Chalice and Chrissy Crowley have very little in common – except for the fact they have all been summoned at fairly short notice to attend a dinner party hosted by Lady Sybil Anderson, in her rather charming and opulent apartment in Bruton Square, Mayfair.
Except each guests believes they are having a private dinner party with their host – so the other visitors are quite a surprise.
Once the awkward introductions are out of the way, a powercut sends shockwaves through the group – and when the lights come back on, Jeremy is discovered dead.
Elizabeth Chalice – the only private investigator in the group – becomes detective, witness and suspect all at once . . . Is Jeremy’s death an accident – or is it the very reason they’ve all been called here at once?
A murderous Abigail’s Party – Fiona Sherlock’s Supper for Six is immersive and incredibly entertaining. Join Elizabeth Chalice on her quest to get to the bottom of this rather deadly dinner party . . .
