A second witty fun 1970s-set whodunnit in the Lowe and Le Breton mysteries series featuring two ageing actors attempting to solve a murder after their famous co-star is found dead in a doorway outside the theatre in which they're performing. Nostalgic cosy crime that's perfect for fans of The Thursday Murder Club and Death & Croissants. It's 1971 and in between filming seasons of Floggit and Leggit ageing actors Edward Lowe and John Le Breton sign up for a short run of Shakespearean tragedies at the Bolton Playhouse. But once in Lancashire they discover they have been invited to join the theatre's repertory company for two reasons - because the company manager is keen to take advantage of the publicity surrounding their successful BBC comedy series and because Sir Nathaniel Thompson the much-lauded star of the show and knight of the realm has been sacked for drunkenness. John fears an awkward scene should Thompson - who he knew during the war - return to reclaim his job but when the great actor's body is found bludgeoned to death in a nearby alleyway the unlikely crime-solving duo find themselves investigating another fiendish mystery that takes them from the northwest of England to the Netherlands and which rather inconveniently seems to have John's ex-wife Sally at its heart. Death at the Playhouses is the second in The Lowe and Le Breton Mysteries series.
