About the book
It’s that time of year again in the Cotswolds… pantomime season! However, this year’s production is taking a dark turn as a murder occurs on stage. The winter has arrived in the Cotswolds, and Dotty Sayers and her friends are busy with their roles in the local amateur dramatics pantomime of Jack and the Beanstalk. There are costumes to be made, lines to be learned, and rehearsals to attend, all creating a flurry of excitement in the village.
But when the show opens, tragedy strikes as a cast member is found dead on stage. Rumors of foul play quickly spread through the audience, drawing Dotty and her friend Keya into a real-life mystery. With potential suspects hiding in the shadows and a web of alibis to untangle, they must tread cautiously to uncover the truth. Will they be able to crack the case before the final act, or will the killer steal the spotlight?
