From multi-million-selling Faith Martin, one of Britain's best-loved mystery writers.
Meet Jenny Starling: travelling cook and reluctant amateur sleuth.
Jenny Starling is doing the catering for the village cricket match. But she's not expecting one of the players to come to a sticky end.
Everyone from the village has turned out to watch the match, which marks the club's centenary.
The next man up to bat, Tristan Jones, is nowhere to be found. He is discovered behind the pavilion, murdered by a blow to the back of the head with an old cricket bat.
The handsome twenty-something stockbroker had a reputation as a Lothario, with an appetite for married women. Did a scorned woman or a cuckolded husband kill him?
He's annoyed other people too. He took big risks with other people's money and lost their lifesavings.
Soon another body turns up and Jenny Starling is going to need all her cunning to crack this complex case.
This delightful cozy mystery series is perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, LJ Ross, Richard Osman, the Rev Richard Coles, Janice Hallett, Fiona Leitch and Veronica Heley.
Please note this book was first published as Just Not Cricket under Faith Martin's pen name JOYCE CATO.
