The Ballad of Sean & Wilko: The Fourth Detective Inspector Christy Kennedy Mystery - Hardcover
Book 4 of 5: The Christy Kennedy Mysteries
Synopsis
Take two musicians: Sean Green, gifted Irish songwriter and talented musician, but with a voice that could curdle milk.
...And Wilko Robertson, a soulful Scottish singer.
They worked together in the '70s in a band called Circles, but the big time eluded them. Together again for a gig at Dingwalls Dancehall in Camden Town, it's meant to be the start of a successful come-back tour.
But during a break in the set, Wilko is found murdered in his locked dressing room. Then another body shows up - in another room that's locked from the inside.
Pretty soon Detective Inspector Christy Kennedy is faced with two locked room mysteries and more suspects that clues. And just when he's knee deep in bodies, Kennedy's partner, ann rea (always lower case), springs a few surprises of her own.

Reviews
Inspector Christy Kennedy, the music-loving police officer from London's Camden Town, returns in this fourth installment in the series. Circles, a rock band that's been around for a couple of decades, is on the verge of a major comeback when its lead singer, Wilko Robertson, is murdered. The list of suspects is long--it includes Wilko's partner, songwriter Sean Green, and a host of music-world colleagues--but its numbers are reduced by one when another man is murdered--killed, like Wilko, in a room locked from the inside. Once again, readers with an interest in the contemporary music industry will find much here to delight them, but even those whose musical knowledge begins and ends with Beethoven will enjoy this smart, charmingly written mystery. (Incidentally, fans who've been waiting for something unexpected to happen in the relationship between Kennedy and his lover, journalist ann rea, won't want to miss this one.) This series is far too little known in the U.S. It's time for that to change. David Pitt
