A jouster, a playwright, and a detective walk into a faire…but it’s no joke when one ends up dead.
Actress and part-time PI Ivy Meadows is thrilled when she learns that the famous playwright behind Hello Dolly Madison is in Arizona. Not so much when she realizes he’s a suspect in the murder of a Renaissance faire jouster.
As is her friend Riley. And about a thousand other people, all disguised in Renaissance costume during the fatal jousting match.
When Ivy is hired to investigate the killing, she goes undercover as a Cockney belly dancer at the faire and finagles her way into the playwright’s Kennedy-inspired version of Camelot—as Marilyn Monroe, no less.
Then, in the midst of her toughest case ever, Ivy has to solve another dilemma: Will she follow her lifelong dream of being an actor or settle down with the love of her life?
The murder investigation, the play, and real life come together in a twist that begs the question: Is there a happily-ever-after for anyone?
Praise for Killalot (An Ivy Meadows Mystery)
by Cindy Brown
Cindy Brown delivers an intriguing puzzle with a wide cast of characters while introducing us to the venue of the traveling Renaissance Faire circuit, a fascinating event.
~Mallory Heart’s Cozies
This book takes a serious turn in the final quarter of the book, and it is so beautiful for it. The character growth we get from several characters is good, but the growth we get in Ivy is outstanding.
