1960. Lady Fawcett is eager to vet her daughter Amy's current beau, aspiring film director Bartholomew Hackle who is shooting his first major project in Southwold. While Amy is unable to accompany her mother, Rosy Gilchrist is strong-armed into another visit.

On the set of The Suffolk Seagull nobody really knows what is going on - least of all Felix Smythe whose bit part is constantly changing thanks to Hackle, much to Felix's chagrin. But the unambiguous death by gun-shot of a female cast member brings a drama to proceedings lacking in the film itself, and Lady Fawcett, Rosy, Felix and even Cedric Dillworthy are once again at the centre of a murder mystery in which further victims may face the cut.

Reviews for Shot in Southwold (#4 Rosie Gilchrist)

With characters straight from Agatha Christie, if not from P G Wodehouse, and a setting like the wonderful Southwold, this superb thriller has everything thrown into the mix - humour, murder, tension, drama... if pushed, I'd say it was more reminiscent of Dorothy L Sayers's Lord Peter Wimsey, and that's a compliment, of course. A wonderful read. --Books Monthly The latest in a series featuring Rosy Gilchrist, this is as light-hearted as a murder mystery can be, with puns, farce, frothy characters and a not particularly challenging mystery. Period feel is supplied by dialogue and contemporary cultural references. An entertaining read for a wet day in Walberswick. -- (08/01/2017)
