The Museum Murder by Katie Gayle
4.0
I was delighted when I was invited to the tour of the second Epiphany Bloom series. I loved the first one and this one is set in a museum of movie memorabilia and vintage costumes.
Pip is jobless again and her sister Flis is making a career out of her blog and is now an influencer! They go on a trip to a museum so that Flis can write about for her blog and whilst they are there, they see the iconic dress that Julia Roberts wore in Pretty Women to the opera. Pip is enthralled by it,being jobless and broke as usual Pip is very down heartened by life. Then she is offered a job helping to source original items for the collection, this is far from the detective job that she wants but she goes for it anyway and she is horrified when she find out the truth about the museum.
Will she stay and help Arabella who runs the museum ? She soon gets into slueth mode and tries to get to the bottom of the mystery of the dress and what else will she uncover ?
This is a lovely gentle and comical story, Pip is so unlucky everything she touches turns to disaster, she likes her flatmate Tim but he doesn’t seem to be interested. Pip is a really likeable character and I enjoyed going on another adventure with her.
Likeable, charming, the book has intrigue, llamas and kittens. A strange combination but it works.
4 stars ****
