The latest instalment in the award-winning, New York Times bestselling Castle Knoll Murder Mystery series, in which Annie Adams and her Great Aunt Frances team up across decades to solve two interlocking murders
***************************************
LAURA NEVER MEANT TO LIE. BUT OLD HABITS DIE HARD.
When Annie Adams heads to London to visit her mother, Laura, the last thing she expects to find is a dead body. Least of all for it to be Fliss, the budding artist Laura had just taken under her wing.
Annie is no stranger to murder - after all, she's solved a few cases already. And something about the way Fliss died feels familiar. She's seen a case like this before. Or read about it, rather, in the journals of her dead Great Aunt Frances, whose close friend was killed in the 1960s in the exact same way: with her heart surgically removed from her chest.
As threats pile up on Laura's doorstep, it soon becomes clear that she's next, and that she's hiding something . . . With her mother's life on the line, can Annie find the killer before it's too late?
From the gritty streets of 1960s Soho to the lofty galleries of present-day West London, follow Annie and Frances as they race to bring a killer to justice.

Recenzii
A modern master of the genre, Kristen Perrin breathes new life into cozy crime. You will be hooked from page one of How to Cheat Your Own Death, which weaves the vibrant art world of present-day London with the glamour of 1960s Soho into an intricate and enchanting dual mystery. Each Castle Knoll book is a slice of pure murder mystery joy
An elegant blend of history, family secrets, and suspense. Perrin masterfully weaves a dual-timeline mystery that's both clever and emotionally resonant. The story is rich with atmosphere, layered red herrings, and a slow-burn romantic tension between Annie and investigator Rowan Crane that kept me turning the pages. With evocative writing and a twisty plot that ties past and present together in surprising ways, this novel is a captivating exploration of legacy, love and the lengths we go to uncover the truth.
How to Cheat Your Own Death is gripping and beautifully written, a vivid descent into 1960s Soho and a present-day mystery with razor-sharp stakes. I was enthralled by the haunting secrets that echo across decades. A total pageturner!
Swinging London in the 1960s makes a stylish backdrop for this cleverly braided reunion of Frances and Annie, both solving crimes in the backstabbing world of art. Deft brushstrokes of romance, family drama and clashes with the old guard make this a perfect picture of modern murder
Slip into glittering London nights steeped in fame and fortune, art and artifice. Perrin threads two immersive timelines together with a ribbon of fate, creating one crackling mystery that ripples through generations. How To Cheat Your Own Death is the most riveting chapter yet of Annie and Frances' story
With dual timelines, clever twists and a delightful cast of characters to root for (and suspect), How to Cheat Your Own Death is pure cozy mystery fun!
A delicious mystery with a clever plot and real emotional depth
Kristen Perrin's How to Cheat Your Own Death is a delightfully twisty ride through London's art world, past and present, that bubbles with sparkling prose and sly humor. If this is your first Castle Knoll Murder Mystery, you'll be racing to savor the others!
