About the book
Amateur sleuths and wannabe influencers Kerry and Annie are back on the case when a social media festival inspires some killer content—and several on-camera influencer deaths—in 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 famous—well, only—detective 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 reporter—and 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 her—and not just on social media—in their quest to create some truly killer content.
- A Bizarre Locked-Room Mystery: The first victim is a famous prankster found with a condom stretched over his head. It’s a crime so ridiculous, only the Tampon Two can solve it.
- Amateur Sleuths Under Pressure: Kerry and Annie are back, but with Annie chasing fame and Kerry chasing a story, can their friendship survive another case?
- Influencers and Prank Wars: Welcome to the Festival of Fame, where the rivalries are vicious, the drama is livestreamed, and the content is literally killer.
- A Sidesplitting Sequel: Fans of Murder on a School Night will love this hilarious and sharp-witted follow-up from comedian Kate Weston.
