Dining, Dancing, and Murder with Peter Bartram
We go back to 1960s Brighton for murderous adventures with journalist Colin Crampton.
In the introduction I mention that you can find the books of most of my guests at your public library. If you can't find them there, simply ask your librarian and it's likely they'll appreciate your suggestion and try to get the book in for you.
I also mention that It's a Mystery podcast now has a Patreon page. If you'd like to support the show, for as little as one fluffy coffee a month, you can do that at Patreon.com/itsamystery.
As a consumer of podcasts and other art, I really appreciate being able to make small, regular contributions to those artists I enjoy. I offer the option to you, my listeners, and include rewards for patronage like a private mystery readers' Facebook group, where we can chat about what we're reading and get recommendations from others around the globe. ;-)

Excerpt from The Tango School Mystery
In Antoine's Sussex Grill, Shirley slammed down her knife and fork.
She'd lost interest in her steak. The blood-stained remnants lay on her plate.
Another droplet of blood formed on the ceiling. It shone like a ruby.
I glanced up at it and sighed in a resigned sort of way. I knew I wasn't going to enjoy what I had to do next.
"I'm going upstairs," I said.
"How?" Shirley asked.
"There's a separate front door to the apartment in the street."
"I'm coming with you."
"No, it's best you wait here. If we both rush out Antoine will think we're doing a runner to avoid paying the bill."
Shirley grinned. "Would be great exercise, cobber."
