{"product_id":"9781448317684","title":"Played to Death","description":"\u003cp\u003eIt's curtains down for one actor when preparations for a new murder mystery play at the local theatre take a chillingly real twist . . .    The Librarian Retirement was beckoning until local lawyer Adam Cunningham - aka the Hopewell Players' pantomime dame - requested my professional opinion on the script of their next play that he's been given.    The Lawyer The script is terrible! And it rips off a number of Golden Age mysteries. With Roly's knowledge of crime fiction, I might be able to get the whole thing cancelled.    The Producer I couldn't believe it when I learned that my late father had written a play of all things! And now the players will perform his work - until one of them is found dead. . .    The Inspector A body on the stage of the local playhouse doesn't happen often round here. Was it a pre-rehearsal accident, suicide . . . or is the spotlight about to fall on a murderer? Told from the point of view of four unreliable narrators, most of whom can't be trusted - The Librarian, The Lawyer, The Producer and The Inspector - this cunningly inventive novel is a refreshingly fun, subversive take on the crime fiction genre.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rye Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55732299366776,"sku":"9781448317684","price":21.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/1368\/0730\/files\/9781448317684.jpg?v=1794281560","url":"https:\/\/ryebooks.co.uk\/products\/9781448317684","provider":"Rye Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
