Death in the Stars: A Kate Shackleton Mystery
Frances Brody
France Brody captures the atmosphere and language of 1920s England while delivering a captivating plot in the ninth book of this traditional cozy mystery series featuring private investigator Kate Shackleton. Yorkshire, 1927. Eclipse fever grips the nation, and when beloved theatre star Selina Fellini approaches trusted sleuth Kate Shackleton to accompany her to a viewing party on the grounds of Giggleswick School Chapel, Kate suspects an ulterior motive. During the eclipse, Selina's friend and co-star Billy Moffatt disappears and is later found dead in the chapel grounds. Kate can't help but dig deeper and soon learns that two other members of the theatre troupe died in similarly mysterious circumstances in the past year. With the help of Jim Sykes and Mrs Sugden, Kate sets about investigating the deaths -and whether there is a murderer in the company. When Selina's elusive husband Jarrod- who was injured in the war and is subject to violent mood swings--comes back on the scene, Kate begins to imagine something far deadlier at play, and wonders just who will be next to pay the ultimate price for fame.Binding Type: HardcoverAuthor: Frances BrodyPublisher: Minotaur BooksPublished: 02/13/2018ISBN: 9781250154798Pages: 400Weight: 0.90lbsSize: 8.40h x 5.80w x 1.40dReview Citations: Library Journal Prepub Alert 09/15/2017 pg. 53Publishers Weekly 11/20/2017Kirkus Reviews 12/15/2017
