About this listen

 'Been reading this on m'olidays. It's perfectly ridiculous & also v funny...' DAWN FRENCH

'Curtain Call To Murder positively explodes with the double-entendres and vicious wit that has become his trademark.' DAILY EXPRESS

'Utterly hilarious & thrillingly disgusting' MIRIAM MARGOYLES

A murder on stage. A cast full of suspects. Can dresser to the stars and true crime obsessive Jayne unravel the mystery?

It is opening night at the London Palladium, and tensions are running high amongst the feuding cast of "Leopard Spots." Amongst them are an ageing lothario, a foul-mouthed national treasure, and a comedian-turned actor all vying for the spotlight.

When an on-stage accident forces an unexpected intermission, it is clear only to dresser to the stars Jayne that the backstage drama has turned deadly. Can she step out of the wings and identify the killer before it is too late? Or will murder make an encore...

Discover the year's most entertaining, devious and fabulous mystery from author, actor and comedian Julian Clary.©2024 Julian Clary (P)2024 Orion Publishing Group Limited Animals Cosy Crime Thrillers Dark Humour Literature & Fiction Mystery Thriller & Suspense Celebrity Witty Feel-Good Comedy Crime Murder

Really good plot which was woven expertly into the world of the theatre (and Julian Clary). Narration was excellent and I loved the additional asides.

I laughed out loud, occasionally. Something I'm not given to doing. Julians' contribution to lighthearted murder/mystery was a welcome escape.

I found it hard to follow initially as there were so many narrators but I chose to stick with it and I’m glad I did. Funny thoughtful I really enjoyed this book and glad I chose to carry on listening.

Stick with it !
