Good mystery; 1st in series.

Three actresses who played or will play Lady Detective Dahlia Lively in film/tv adaptations of the Golden Age mystery series attend a fan convention at the manor house of the late author of the series. Murders happen, of course, and the actresses have to solve the mystery.

Two issues with this one: marketing said this was an homage to Golden Age mysteries, so I was expecting something like a Golden Age mystery. While that was there in the setting, this was actually a cozy )which is fine, but not my preference).

Secondly, the way Watson handles 3 points of view made this book feel choppy and disconnected to me, and really dampened my experience.

I really enjoyed this one. I thought the 3 MCs were well-written & well-rounded. Their developing friendship was nicely done & the plot itself was intricate without being overwhelmingly difficult. I would definitely read a sequel, in fact, I found myself wanting to read the fictional Dahlia Lively series itself if only it existed! 4🌟

My thanks to NetGalley & publishers, Little, Brown Book Group UK / Constable, for the opportunity to read an ARC.

A fun book themed mystery! I love a good book themed mystery -- and the author went above and beyond by crafting a whole fictional book series, author, movie and tv series, and convention for this book. Adding in the actresses who portray the same role added a new element than the usual bookstore, library, book collectors.

I can't wait for the next book!
