An Invitation to Murder
(2019)(The first book in the Mary Blake Mystery series)
A novel by A G Barnett
She used to solve murders on tv, now she does it for real
Once the star of a beloved TV crime drama, Mary Blake had it all – fame, fortune, and the adoration of millions. But turning fifty meant being replaced by a younger actress, and Mary believed her days in the spotlight were over.
That is, until an old friend’s murder mystery party propels her back into the public eye – as a prime suspect.
Now, the former TV detective must become a real-life sleuth to clear her name. With her endearing, puppy-like brother and her unexpectedly resourceful assistant, Dot, Mary embarks on a quest to uncover the truth.
An Invitation to Murder is the first book of the Mary Blake Mysteries, a clever, character-driven cozy mystery, with a fantastic heroine and a charming supporting duo, Dot and Pea.
