A YACHT FULL OF SUSPECTS, ON A SEA OF RED HERRINGS . . .
Rosalind King, Caro Hooper and Posy Starling may be famous for each playing fictional detective Dahlia Lively on screen, but their growing reputation for solving real murder cases has prompted an offer that they can’t refuse . . .
Property mogul and billionaire, Percy Pendleton, has invited them for a two-week trip on his mega yacht this summer to investigate a case of expected murder.
Percy doesn’t believe that his father’s recent death was natural, despite what the police say. In fact, he thinks he’s going to be murdered too – and soon.
Not being one to sit around waiting for things to happen, he’s gathered all the people he suspects of wanting him dead for a luxury cruise around the Mediterranean. He’s giving the three Dahlias the length of the voyage to investigate his father’s demise, figure out who wants him dead, and stop them.
It’s a challenge unlike any they’ve ever tackled before. But at least they get to enjoy the sun, sea and a Limoncello Spritz while they’re interviewing the suspects . . .
Whether you’ve read the whole series, or are discovering the Three Dahlias novels for the first time, this is the perfect murder mystery to escape into this summer if you love Agatha Christie, Janice Hallett and Kristen Perrin.
Praise for the Three Dahlias mysteries . . .

A fun, 1930s style murder-mystery, which makes for perfect holiday reading
A wonderful celebration of Golden Age crime . . . a read you can sink into, just like the perfect country house weekend. You will definitely love Dahlia in all her guises by the end
An absolute treat of a read with all the ingredients of a vintage murder mystery: a country house, mysterious dead bodies and three actresses all keen to catch the killer. Perfect weekend reading!
An unputdownable read
Once again Katy Watson delivers the perfect cosy: atmospheric, ingenious and fun!
Praise for the Three Dahlias mysteries:
Celebrates and gently satirises Golden Age crime novels in a hugely entertaining country house mystery
The best kind of book to curl up with on a cold night by a roaring fire
Dame Agatha would approve
