Amateur sleuths and wannabe influencers Kerry and Annie are back on the case when a social media festival inspires some killer content--and several on-camera influencer deaths--in this page-turning and sidesplitting sequel to Murder on a School Night from author and comedian Kate Weston.
After catching the menstrual murderer red-handed, Annie and Kerry are now the Tampon Two, Barbourough's most famous--well, only--detective duo. So Annie (and decidedly not Kerry) is enjoying her five minutes of fame.
Except life in the spotlight seems to be a magnet for death these days. After a famous prankster is found dead with a condom stretched over his entire head, the Tampon Two are on the scene at their small village's Festival of Fame to catch another killer.
Honestly, Kerry doesn't know how she ended up here again, but this might be her one chance to prove to the folks at the local paper that she has what it takes to be a reporter--and to prove to herself that she doesn't need her boyfriend, Scott, to save the day. Or even Annie, who definitely has stars and hearts in her eyes investigating all these influencers.
With Annie distracted, Kerry has to work quickly, before one more live stream can be cut off by yet another grisly death. And this time, the murderer might be following her--and not just on social media--in their quest to create some truly killer content.
- Amateur Sleuth Duo: Meet the Tampon Two: Kerry, an aspiring reporter, and Annie, a wannabe influencer. When a prankster turns up dead with a condom on his head, they're the only ones who can solve the case.
- Influencer Culture Satire: A hilarious send-up of the world of social media, where killer content takes on a whole new meaning and everyone with a ring light is a suspect.
- A Killer Festival Setting: Welcome to the Festival of Fame, a weekend of livestreams, hashtags, and murder. With influencers dropping dead on camera, no one is safe.
- Page-Turning YA Mystery: Perfect for fans of Holly Jackson and Karen M. McManus who like their murder mysteries with a heavy dose of British humor and wit.
