About this Event

We are delighted for the opportunity to meet bestselling author Josie Lloyd and chat to her about her new book, Miss Beeton's M**der Agency.

Miss Beeton's M**der Agency is the first novel of a cosy crime series with a retro feel set in contemporary London. It stars the formidable Alice Beeton – descendant of the famous Mrs Beeton – and her mischievous dog, Agatha.

Following in the footsteps of her distant relative, Alice runs the Good Household Management Agency, providing discreet domestic staff to extravagant townhouses and sprawling country piles. So when Camille Messant calls in urgent need of a new housekeeper, Miss Beeton sends out new hire Enya. She’s rather forward, but she does come with impeccable references and is fluent en français.

But in the early hours of New Year’s Day, Alice is rudely awakened with the news that Enya has been found dead. As the police struggle to drum up an adequate investigation and the wealthy family and their party guests close rank, Miss Beeton takes it upon herself to solve the crime...
