The Three Dahlias

About the book

Three rival actresses have joined forces to investigate a murder at the grand estate of the writer who catapulted them to fame, only to realize that the key to solving the mystery lies within the stories they've brought to life. This contemporary whodunit captures the essence of the Golden Age of detective fiction, making it a must-read for fans of Agatha Christie and Jessica Fellowes.

Among the guests are VIP fans residing at Aldermere, the fan club head turned event planner, the production team behind the latest film adaptation of Davenport's novels, the Davenport family, and the trio of actresses renowned for portraying Lettice's 1930s sleuth, Dahlia Lively.

There's the beloved national figure Rosalind King, star of the original films, the television's Dahlia for thirteen seasons Caro Hooper, and the former child sensation Posy Starling, fresh off a stint in the limelight (and rehab) to take on the role of Dahlia in the new movie.

While each actress brings their unique take on the character, they must set aside their differences during this summer weekend in England as the peaceful ambiance of Aldermere vanishes in the wake of a series of crimes.

As make-believe deaths transform into real-life casualties, can the trio of Dahlias unravel the truth behind the murders amidst the fans, film crew, family - or perhaps even within Lettice's books themselves?
