A Party to Death
(2025)(The second book in the Shamrock Detective Agency series)
A novel by Julie Broussely
A masked costume party, a deadly game, and a cat among the magpies…
Toby Solano returns to The Hague to launch The Shamrock Detective Agency and to unearth the truth about the mysterious Arnold Exford – the dead and buried benefactor who apparently just tried to call his mobile…
A murder mystery-themed party invitation is hardly what Toby and his quick-witted sidekick Meredith envisaged for their new career as crime-fighters. But as evening falls and the guests gather, a deadly game begins and nothing is quite what it seems.
An elaborate investigation plays out against the delightful backdrop of narrow cobblestone streets, ornate Gothic churches, and wide well-surfaced cycle lanes. The Shamrock Detective Agency must risk reputation, personal safety, and spilt tea to prove it can hunt down a killer.
Will a neighbourhood of eccentric characters, poisonous fish, an opinionated cat, and dangerous coastal weather be a help or hindrance to the intrepid detectives?
Tea will be drunk, maps consulted, secret histories exhumed and at least one very long Dutch word mispronounced.
Genre: Mystery
