Strathfulton Castle is many things-ancient, imposing, and never dull for long-but when a troupe of temperamental London actors descends upon the estate, even Maeve Morgan isn't prepared for the drama that follows.
What begins as a harmless rehearsal for a touring production quickly spirals into real-life tragedy when a celebrated actress collapses in the castle's green room. At first, it looks like theatrical excess gone too far. But Maeve, former police officer turned reluctant countess, knows the difference between make-believe murder and the real thing, and this is most definitely the latter.
With the police frustratingly absent, Maeve finds herself navigating a castle full of oversized egos, secret grudges, and actors who all seem to be performing even when the curtain is down. As tensions rise and another death shocks the household, it becomes chillingly clear that someone is rewriting the script-and they're not done yet.
Surrounded by poison pens, prop daggers, and a company where everyone has a motive and no one is entirely trustworthy, Maeve must uncover the truth before the final act claims yet another victim.
Witty, atmospheric, and delightfully twisty, Death in a Green Room is a classic British cozy mystery packed with sharp dialogue, theatrical intrigue, and a heroine who proves that murder is far harder to conceal than bad acting.
Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, golden-age mysteries, and British TV dramas where secrets lurk behind every polite smile-and the deadliest performances happen offstage.
