Summary
The third instalment in the Whitstable Pearl Mysteries, the May Day festivities bring murder to Whitstable.
It’s springtime, and Whitstable is emerging from hibernation.
While neither the restaurant nor detective agency is too busy, Pearl resolves to spend some time at the family allotment. But her best friend, Nathan, has persuaded one of his favourite actresses to open the May Day festivities at Whitstable Castle and involves Pearl in his plans.
Like Pearl, Faye Marlowe is a Whitstable native, but having left the town more than two decades ago, the star has been living in the South of France since her agent’s phone stopped ringing. Charming but ‘sensitive’, she arrives with a small entourage, and though her presence in the town causes a stir, Pearl’s mother, Dolly, remains unimpressed, choosing to remember Faye Marlow when she was plain old Frankie Murray, the daughter of a local whelk merchant.
Nathan soon realises he has made a mistake with this invitation, and his doubts are confirmed when Faye is nowhere to be found on the morning of May Day.
Critic reviews
"What Colin Dexter did for Oxford, Julie Wassmer is intent on doing for Whitstable." (Daily Mail)
"If you like the TV series Midsomer Murders, then May Day Murder should be right up your alley." (The Crime Warp)
