SHAKESPEARE in the PARK with MURDER is IndieReader Approved

Shakespeare in the Park with Murder is IndieReader Approved

Nicole Dieker‘s third entry in the Larkin Day Mystery Series, Shakespeare in the Park with Murder, is IndieReader Approved with a 4.3/5 review.

“The third book in Nicole Dieker’s impressive Larkin Day series finds the title character as charming as ever in a plot that manages to blend Shakespearean subterfuge and murder with petty small town jealousies and problematic wi-fi.

Regular readers will enjoy catching up with Larkin and her coterie. Things have moved on a touch since the excellent previous novel “Like, Subscribe, And Murder.” New readers may do better to begin with that, or indeed the series debut “Ode To Murder”, to get fully up to speed with Larkin’s particular world view but wherever they start their journey with her they’ll be happy to have made her acquaintance.”

Shakespeare in the Park with Murder is out now in paperback and ebook.
