This immersive holiday caper from the “modern Agatha Christie” (The Sunday Times, London) follows the hilarious Fairway Players theater group as they put on a Christmas play—and solve a murder that threatens their production.
The Christmas season has arrived in Lower Lockwood, and the Fairway Players are busy rehearsing their festive holiday production of Jack and the Beanstalk to raise money for a new church roof. But despite the season, goodwill is distinctly lacking among the amateur theater enthusiasts with petty rivalries, a possibly asbestos-filled beanstalk, and some perennially absent players behind the scenes.
Of course, there’s also the matter of the dead body onstage. Who could possibly have had the victim on their naughty list? Join lawyers Femi and Charlotte as they investigate Christmas letters, examine emails, and pore over police transcripts to identify both the victim and killer before the curtain closes on their holiday production—for good.

emails, phone calls to move the story forward. This is supposedly in the traditional 'epistolary style..' as if
a character is writing his/her thoughts in a letter. Let's be real: a letter is more informative than a
text message which is short and sweet, and reveals little about the sender or receiver.
This technique of putting together a mystery leaves the reader in the dark: what is going on here?
I had a difficult time paying attention because I did not give a fig for any of the characters or the situations.
There was little effort in fleshing out the characters, the setting or in the response to the crime.
The narrators were serviceable but on the whole, this was not my cup of tea.
Really hard to pay attention
