THE PREQUEL TO THE MUST-LISTEN MULTIMILLION BESTSELLING MYSTERY SERIES—NOW ON NETFLIX!

You’re invited to the murder mystery party of the year! Fans of A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder will love Pip’s final detective case in this mystery novella from #1 New York Times bestselling author Holly Jackson.

Six suspects. Three hours. One murder…

Pip is not in the mood for her friend’s murder mystery party. Especially one that involves 1920’s fancy dress and pretending that their town is an island called Joy. But when the game begins, Pip finds herself drawn into the make-believe world of intrigue, deception and murder.

But as Pip plays detective, teasing out the identity of the killer clue-by-clue, the murder of the fictional Reginald Remy isn’t the only case on her mind …

satisfying prequel

The audiobook contains satisfying twists. It may be short, but truly enjoyable. And I enjoy the prequel insights.

Well Done!!

This Novella was outstanding!! I rank it right up with the Novels she wrote full Novels in the series "Good Girls Guide to Murder". All the same characters and the same theme. She packed a lot into the two hours. I found it enjoyable and it kept my interest throughout.

Can’t get enough of Pip

I always love listening to Pip solve a mystery! This one fell a little flat for me because of where it falls one the AGGGTM timeline. If they story was more fresh in my mind it probably would have gotten more stars from me! Will always be a fan of Pip and Holly Jackson!

How it all came to pass.

Really liked the whole series. So sad that it’s over. Now I have to find another suspenseful series.

Vintage Pip

This right here is the character I’d wish we’d gotten more of in books two and three but Holly Jackson stripped away too much of Pip from book to book. I loved the charm, the curiosity, the life and the fun of this little novella. This short three hour novella is more compelling and engaging than all fifteen hours of book three.

Short and sweet

Although this book was short, I enjoyed the storyline. It was captivating and very well written. A good girls guide to murder was a good book as well which is why I got this one. It starts before book one, and it dips into the series as a whole and gives you a hint of what the book one would be about. this book was also very engaging and I enjoyed the different voices and characters. It introduces new characters that are introduced in the first book and on through the series, and it gives you a hint of who they are, and what part they play in the future books. I highly recommend this book to start off the series of a good girls guide to murder 10 out of 10 would recommend. I look forward to reading more by this author.
