Death Unscripted

By: M.K. Graff

Narrated by: Lucinda Gainey

Trudy Genova has the best job any nurse could want, working on set as a medical consultant for a movie studio. No more uniforms, bedpans, or emergencies, until the actor whose overtures she's refused dies suddenly while taping a hospital scene - but not before pointing his finger accusingly at Trudy. When detectives view Trudy as a suspect, she sets out on an investigation to clear her name. Then a second death occurs, and Trudy realizes she's put herself in jeopardy.

A new mystery from the award-winning author of The Nora Tierney English Mysteries, based on the author's real-life nursing position as a medical consultant for a NY movie studio. This is the book her mentor and friend, P D James, insisted she write, and it is dedicated to James.

Critic reviews

"Graff gets behind the scenes of soaps just right, as well she should - she was there!" (Marilyn Chris, Obie and Drama Desk Award-winning actress who played Wanda Wolek on One Life to Live)

"Soap opera drama is as intents on set as it is on the screen. Sometimes Trudy Genova, consulting nurse, feels like the only sane person in the room. Join her as she copes with huge egos, daily melodrama, an attractive detective, and life in New York - plus murder. The city and the studio provide intriguing backgrounds for this entertaining mystery." (Triss Stein, author of the Erica Donato Mysteries)

"Your blood pressure will soar during Graff's new Manhattan Mystery series, as nurse Trudy Genova take the pulse of a killer during a soap opera filming in Death Unscripted. You won't even think of changing the channel during this smart, suspenseful mystery." (Edith Maxwell, Agatha-nominated best-selling author of the Local Foods Mysteries)

Murder At The Opera

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This book was a fun listen. Nice amateur sleuth, hunky detective, and good supporting cast.

What did you like best about this story?

The best part of the book was learning what really happens on the set of a soap opera. Thinking about the small details that make a soap scene realistic gave me a new appreciation of the crews who work behind the curtain.

What aspect of Lucinda Gainey’s performance would you have changed?

The accents that she used for the two detectives did not sound realistic. The voices of the other characters were great.

WHAT A PERFECT TITLE "DEATH UNSCRIPTED"!

A wonderful book that could make a great movie if done right. I was entertained from start to finish by the constant twist and turns of not one murder but two! Kept me guessing until the end and even then I would never have guessed. This book has it all! A murder mystery with great characters and just the right amount of romance. I definitely recommend this book.
