Produktbeschreibung

Amateur sleuths and wannabe influencers Kerry and Annie are back on the case when a social media festival inspires some killer contentand several on-camera influencer deathsin this page-turning and sidesplitting sequel to Murder on a School Night from author and comedian Kate Weston.

After catching the menstrual murderer red-handed, Annie and Kerry are now the Tampon Two, Barbourough's most famouswell, onlydetective duo. So Annie (and decidedly not Kerry) is enjoying her five minutes of fame.

Except life in the spotlight seems to be a magnet for death these days. After a famous prankster is found dead with a condom stretched over his entire head, the Tampon Two are on the scene at their small village's Festival of Fame to catch another killer.

Honestly, Kerry doesn't know how she ended up here again, but this might be her one chance to prove to the folks at the local paper that she has what it takes to be a reporterand to prove to herself that she doesn't need her boyfriend, Scott, to save the day. Or even Annie, who definitely has stars and hearts in her eyes investigating all these influencers.

With Annie distracted, Kerry has to work quickly, before one more live stream can be cut off by yet another grisly death. And this time, the murderer might be following herand not just on social mediain their quest to create some truly killer content.

Rezensionen

Praise for MURDER ON A SCHOOL NIGHT

"This inclusive feminist tale is thrilling, twisty and hilarious... I'll never look at menstrual products the same way again!
Fiercely funny, feminist and FUN! I bloody loved it" - M.A. KUZNIAR

'The snappy dialogue shines and the detective duo's friendship is well observed and rings true' - Fiona Noble, The Observer

'Kate Weston's hilarious YA murder mystery is a must'- Irish Independent

"Mean Girls meets Midsomer Murders with a dash of Louise Rennison in this genre-blending story... Hysterically funny dialogue and a lighthearted tone. However, what really elevates the goofy capers and over-the-top scheming is how well Kerry and Annie know both themselves and each other. Secrets add depth and complexity to this insightful parody of teenage life. A nuanced, hilarious page-turning romantic mystery" - Kirkus Reviews

"Channeling the 1980s cult classic Heathers right down to the croquet set, Weston flaunts cozy English charm and puerile slapstick comedy in this propulsive mystery . . . The girls' chemistry as best friends and partners-in-crime-solving is energizing. Refreshing attention to sex positivity and period politics combined with Weston's timing-both comedic and plot driven-ensure a laugh-out-loud romp" - Publishers Weekly

'Laugh out loud funny, delightfully gruesome and packed with twists, turns and feminism. I loved every minute of it!' - Amy McCaw, author of Mina and the Undead
