The Killer Question

 
Author: Janice Hallett
Narrator: full cast
Publisher: Simon & Schuster Audio
Publication date: September 23, 2025


Such a clever story! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you Simon Audio for the #gifted audiobook The Killer Question by Janice Hallett. 


Sue and Mal Eastwood run an out of the way pub where the weekly trivia game is the big draw. Then a body is found in a nearby river. If that’s not bad enough, a new unbeatable trivia team arrives and disrupts the pub’s friendly competition. As Sue and Mal, try to figure out if the new team is cheating, they’re also working to keep their own secrets under wraps. 


Clever story telling and excellent plotting makes this book standout. The story unfolds through emails, text messages, witness statements, and dialogue from police body camera footage. I loved how Hallett put it all together so seamlessly. There a large cast of often quirky characters, a dual timeline, and surprising twists. This cozy mystery certainly kept me on my toes. 


I absolutely loved the full cast narration. I think it would have been difficult to keep track of who was who without a full cast. Instead I got a very immersive listening experience. They truly brought all the characters and the story to life. Hallett is a new to me author and I’ll definitely be dipping into her backlist. The Killer Question is out now.


Happy Wednesday #bookish friends! What was your last 5⭐️ read?
