Big Girls Don't Die

Who Killed Marjie Cabbage?

Millie Culpepper is a big, beautiful woman with a voice to die for. But having been betrayed by her lover, she walked away from her band and come back to town nursing a broken heart. She spends her days working in Bernie's Bazaar, selling a weird selection of pre-loved items, and her evenings enjoying comfort food.

Then, Hawksley's resident busybody Marjorie Cribbage-Hobbes is found murdered and Millie's employer and friend is the prime suspect. Determined to clear Bernie's name, Millie begins her own investigation and discovers that Marjorie made a lot of enemies over the years - including members of her own family, local business owners, and even the pub landlady. But which of them hated her enough to want her dead?

When the killer attacks more victims, including Millie, she teams up with a hot and hunky private detective to get to the bottom of the mystery. She's also faced with questions of a more personal nature. Is she ready for romance to blossom? And is she ready to take to the stage and sing again?

Millie uncovers a web of secrets and deceit, and she finds there are people who will go to any lengths to avoid the truth being revealed. A vital witness goes missing and she must take the lead to save him and the man she is growing to love. As events reach their climax, can she prove that the show's not over 'til the fat lady sings?
