When The Party Died: More murder, more mystery - A.G. Barnett

A museum-launch murder mystery in the British village crime tradition, complete with whispers of lost treasure and a gallery of suspects who all had reasons to attend. Character-driven detection with warmth, wit and personal stakes for both leads. Museums Preserve the Past. This One Made History. The grand launch of a new exhibit at Bexford Museum takes a dark turn when Detective Sergeant Guy Poole and Detective Inspector Sam Brock discover a body amongst the displays. With whispers of a lost treasure and no shortage of suspects, they'll need to stay sharp to find the killer. Away from the case, Poole faces the daunting task of revealing a painful truth to his mother, knowing it could cost him a second parent. Brock, meanwhile, stands at a crossroads, weighing decisions that could change his future in Bexford for good. And somewhere between the relics and the rumours, a killer is counting on the past staying lost. When the Party Died is the third book in the Brock & Poole Mystery series, for readers who love museum mysteries, village crime and detective partnerships with heart. Perfect for fans of T.E. Kinsey, M.C. Beaton and Faith Martin. Praise for the Brock & Poole Mystery Series: This is a truly enjoyable book, perfect for anyone who loves a good whodunnit with humour, love, and a hint of romance. Enjoyed the plot, the style of writing, the portrayal of the characters and the fluency of the writing. Characters are likeable, you are interested in what happens to them. This series of books is brilliant, just how I like them with an insight into the officers' lives as well as the cases they are following. Fabulous characters, engaging, humorous and believable. A very human partnership. they don't have all the answers and are not cardboard cutouts. Brock and Poole are great characters. written with flaws and all.
