Murder at the Village Fair

A Miss Underhay Mystery, Book 13

By: Helena Dixon

Narrated by: Karen Cass

Kitty Underhay is riding a carousel...with death.

Summer 1935. Enjoying a belated honeymoon visiting her new husband Matt’s family in the rolling Yorkshire hills, Kitty strolls through a village fair. But when Kitty persuades Matt to visit the fortune teller’s tent, the lovebirds are shocked to find the body of Madame Zaza slumped over her crystal ball, pearl necklace askew and a half-drunk cup of tea at her elbow.

After predicting so many of the villagers’ misfortunes, how did she not foresee her own murder? From a pompous old colonel to a reticent reverend and a dodgy village doctor, Kitty soon feels like half the village had a motive for murder. But with more suspects than tarot cards, she and Matt are no closer to finding the culprit.

Madame Zaza had been a part of community’s life for decades, and discovering a photograph album of the villagers through the years gives Kitty and Matt the breakthrough they’ve been searching for. Kitty is soon hot on the killer’s trail when her sleuthing puts her in terrible danger. Will her lucky stars align, or is her lifeline about to run out?

An utterly sensational and addictive Golden Age murder mystery. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, T.E. Kinsey, and Lee Strauss.

Great

You never know what Kitty and Matt will get up to! They cannot take a vacation without murder! Love this series!

Highly Suspenseful

This is beautiful. Very well thought out and very well written. For me, it wasn’t “who did it”, but rather “WHY”??? I enjoyed the surrounding stories as well. A whole host of new characters in another town made the story very good.

Great narration

Plot was great. I expected the hideous figurine to have a camera inside. I was wrong!

Great Story from Helena as Always

I love Kitty's and Matt's adventures, but I have to say, they are the most unromantic couple I've encountered in a novel. They are almost like friends or roommates. Nonetheless the story is great and stays interesting from beginning to end!

Another wonderful story!

I just love Kitty and Matt and their extraordinary adventures. It’s always kind of sad when the book is finished but the anticipation just begins again for the next wonderful tale!!
