About this listen
THE CAST OF SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING THE APPEAL RETURN FOR A FESTIVE MURDER MYSTERY
One dead Santa. A town full of suspects. Will you discover the truth?
Christmas in Lower Lockwood, and the Fairway Players are busy rehearsing their festive pantomime, Jack and the Beanstalk, to raise money for the church roof appeal. But despite the season, goodwill is distinctly lacking amongst the amateur dramatics enthusiasts. Sarah-Jane is fending off threats to her new position as Chair, the fibreglass beanstalk might be full of asbestos, and a someone is intent on ruining the panto even before the curtain goes up.
Of course there's also the matter of the dead body. Who could possibly have had the victim on their naughty list? Join lawyers Femi and Charlotte as they read the round robins, examine the emails and pore over the police transcripts. Will the show go on?

Not for me
I really struggled to like this book. I didn’t like gossiping/ bitchy nature of the characters and so found it boring until the final quarter when some more substance was displayed by the characters and the story itself became more interesting as the crux of the tale was unraveled. Not for everyone.

Good follow up to the first book.
It’s great to catch up with the players again. This is a very short sorry but has the same format as the novel. Story has less characters and is less complex but still really good. BUT, unbelievably even tho they have the same great people reading the book they have changed who voices Sarah Jane McDonald!! Not replaced, the OG SJM narrator is still there but she’s reading other people. I can’t believe they did this, it really mucks everything up. SJM is such a key character. Despite this, give it a go you will get used to it.

A fun, cozy, Christmas mystery
Probably won’t stick around in my head for too long, but I did really enjoy this story. The Fairway Players always make me chuckle
