Julia Bird loves the village pub quiz, but it seems one of her team wont make it to the next round alive On the first Tuesday of each month, Julia Bird and her Agatha Quizteam teammates take part in Berrywicks village pub quiz. They take it seriously whats the point of playing, after all, if you arent in it to win it? But it seems someone connected with the quiz night has taken the competition to a whole new level when Lilian, the local police constable and all-round general knowledge expert, is found fatally stabbed after the evenings final round. With local DI Hayley Gibson stuck home with a broken leg and an incompetent Superintendent brought in from the nearby town, its up to Julia to make sure the investigation stays focussed whether they like it or not! While the police are convinced that the murderer is linked to Lilians professional life, Julia turns her amateur sleuthing eye to suspects much closer to home. Perhaps Lilians personal life could have something to do with the dreadful crime? When another quiz team member is attacked, Julia is finally put on the right track. But what could possibly be important or dangerous enough for two attendees of the pub quiz night to meet such foul ends over? Could the culprit really be among them on that busy Tuesday night? As Julias race to identify the killer ramps up to desperate heights, she wonders, where will the murderous spree end? Perfect for fans of M.C. Beaton, Faith Martin and Betty Rowlands, Murder at the Inn is a brilliantly compelling English cosy mystery.
