Murder, You Say?

Emerson Chopra is back in her second cozy murder mystery.
Who says you can’t chase a killer while wearing flannel pyjamas and a feather boa?
For fans of cozy mysteries that make you laugh and keep you guessing.

When amateur sleuth and novelist Emerson Chopra answers a call from her sister Sydney, a firebrand environmental activist, she swaps the bustle of the city for a village so sleepy it barely stirs when people start turning up dead.

Sharp-eyed and sharper-witted, Emerson soon finds herself in a case that is part murder mystery, part existential farce. Eccentric locals, simmering grudges, and an anarchic streak of absurdity collide in ways no detective manual could possibly prepare her for.

Fortunately, a village cat and dog – each with their own cryptic “voice” – may be one step ahead of both sleuth and killer. But can their unlikely alliance, and Emerson’s determination, stop the murderer before more lives are lost?

Murder, You Say? is an absurdist cozy mystery with teeth: page-turning, anarchically funny, and brimming with topical bite. Fans of classic village whodunnits will feel right at home – until they don’t.
