Praise for MURDER ON A SCHOOL NIGHT: "Mean Girls meets Midsomer Murders with a dash of Louise Rennison in this genre-blending story that centers girls' friendships and two ambitious best friends and hysterically funny dialogue and a lighthearted tone. Kerry's crush on newcomer Scott offers sweet diversions. However, what really elevates the goofy capers and over-the-top scheming is how well Kerry and Annie know both themselves and each other. Secrets add depth and complexity to this insightful parody of teenage life. A nuanced, hilarious page-turning romantic mystery." -- Kirkus Reviews "Channeling the 1980s cult classic Heathers right down to the croquet set, Weston (Diary of a Confused Feminist) flaunts cozy English charm and puerile slapstick comedy in this propulsive mystery . . . The girls' chemistry as best friends and partners-in-crime-solving is energizing. Refreshing attention to sex positivity and period politics combined with Weston's timing--both comedic and plot driven--ensure a laugh-out-loud romp." -- Publishers Weekly "Kerry narrates the investigation with the relatable energy of someone who would much rather be at home reading the story she's telling. The bestie protagonists are reliably charming, admirably supportive, and refreshingly transparent about their horny, frustrating, unfair experiences as young women in this Agatha Christie-esque mystery for the Pretty Little Liars set." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "A little bit Heathers, a little bit Booksmart, this British import is a campy, never-too-serious skewering of faux feminism that embraces the ups and downs of friendship." -- Booklist

Synopsis
Amateur sleuths and wannabe influencers Kerry and Annie are back on the case when a social media festival inspires some killer content--and several on-camera influencer deaths--in this page-turning and sidesplitting sequel to Murder on a School Night from author and comedian Kate Weston. After catching the menstrual murderer red-handed, Annie and Kerry are now the Tampon Two, Barbourough's most famous--well, only--detective duo. So Annie (and decidedly not Kerry) is enjoying her five minutes of fame. Except life in the spotlight seems to be a magnet for death these days. After a famous prankster is found dead with a condom stretched over his entire head, the Tampon Two are on the scene at their small village's Festival of Fame to catch another killer. Honestly, Kerry doesn't know how she ended up here again, but this might be her one chance to prove to the folks at the local paper that she has what it takes to be a reporter--and to prove to herself that she doesn't need her boyfriend, Scott, to save the day. Or even Annie, who definitely has stars and hearts in her eyes investigating all these influencers. With Annie distracted, Kerry has to work quickly, before one more live stream can be cut off by yet another grisly death. And this time, the murderer might be following her--and not just on social media--in their quest to create some truly killer content.
