It's been five years since Dahlia fan Scott Baker was arrested for a murder that had echoes of one of Lettice Davenport's books. But now a true crime podcast is convinced that the police got it wrong - and they want the three Dahlias to help them prove it. The murder of crime writer Victoria Denby created a sensation at the time as the public's imagination was hooked by the detail of a paper dahlia placed beside the body. The police quickly arrested Victoria's friend and fellow writer, Scott Baker, and when it emerged that he had also been accused of stalking Dahlia actress Caro Hooper, it seemed like an open and shut case. Five years on most people have forgotten the case. But this baking hot summer, a crime writing festival is being staged in the village where the muder was committed - and the guests of honour are the Three Dahlias themselves. At the same time, a true crime podcast wants to reopen the case, convinced that the police got the wrong man... and they're determined to enlist the help of Rosalind, Caro and Posy to help prove them right.

Autorenporträt
Katy Watson grew up in North Wales, as part of a family of folk singers, storytellers and murder mystery addicts. An avid reader and notebook collector, her dream was to combine the two hobbies by becoming an author and, after spending her teenage years reading paperback Christies on rainy Welsh caravan holidays, it seemed inevitable that one day she'd try writing her own crime novel. It took her eight years of writing professionally - and over forty-five non-murderous books for children, teens and adults - to write her first murder mystery, The Three Dahlias, and now she's started she never wants to stop!
