Dead Stock cover

Full UK marketing campaign by the Sandstone Press in-house team.

Crime-fighting duo Ant and Bea investigate missing cats – but what does that have to do with the body on the bypass?

‘I’m scared of anyone with a knife and a grudge’

New Year dawns and something is rotten in Kingsleigh. With a body on the bypass and pet cats going missing, supermarket sleuths Ant and Bea have a new case. But juggling problems at work and home takes its toll – and as they near the truth, more than one secret is going to come out.

I thoroughly enjoyed spending my weekend with Ant and Bea and can’t wait to read about their next adventure which I believe will be out soon!

* The Portobello Book Blog *

I'm not sure I can recommend the Ant and Bea mysteries highly enough, Dead Stock is perfectly readable as a stand alone but I would suggest reading The Cost of Living first to really enjoy it to the fullest!

* Sarah Withers Blog *

The brilliant second installment of the Ant & Bea Mysteries is filled with cats, mystery and murder – what more could you need?I absolutely adore this series.

* Between the Pages blog *

‘Bea and Ant are a delightful crime-solving duo and I’ll very happily join them again for another clean-up in a Costsave aisle.’

* Crime Review *

‘Another brilliant Ant and Bea adventure. This series gets better and better.’

* Cass Green *

‘Starring the most unlikely but endearing detective pairing since Morse and Lewis, Dead Stock is a charming, heartwarming page-turner. Agatha Christie meets Car Share and Coronation Street.’

* Joanna Nadin *

‘I love spending time with Bea and Ant! A simply delightful crime-cracking duo.’

* Christi Daugher
