Another brilliant Cornish romp. I love how the author always manages to find entirely different scenarios and locations for each of her books, regularly updating the lives of the villagers in her stories.
The festival descriptions were brilliant, and I loved how she is with her teenage daughter.
Mum never ceases to amaze me, and the other characters stay true to their ongoing lives.

Festival Fatality..
The seventh outing for Jodie (Nosey) Parker and, with a festival in town, Jodie has agreed to run the food truck alongside the extremely reluctant Nathan. As the camping weekend progresses, revellers mingle, chaos ensues and fights break out amongst the band - but then a dead body makes an appearance. Another engaging instalment to this enjoyable and nicely written series of cosy crime with a cast of deftly drawn and eclectic characters, a well done plot and a well imagined backdrop.

4* Seventh in the Nosey Parker Mystery series set in Cornwall.

Jodie Parker, late of the Met, now a civilian, is once again involved in an unexplained death and living up to her nickname of Nosey Parker.

Jodie has agreed to run a pie stall at the local Wave Masters music festival, her fiancé, DCI Nathan Withers, is on leave and she persuades him to help her. On the first night a body is found on the beach, with cars parked nose to tail there’s no possibility of anyone leaving the festival until the last act finishes, allowing two days for Jodie and Nathan to discover the identity of the murderer.

The book is frequently very funny, but maybe not always understood by non-British readers.

Good fun and entertaining, all these murders are really not helping Cornish tourism.

eARC generously supplied by HarperCollins UK, One More Chapter and NetGalley, this review is my personal, unbiased opinion.

Festivals are great places to commit a murder. True, there are thousands of people around, but most of them are out of it with every sort of chemical assistance. There's also an impressive lack of physical and CCTV security, and poor mobile signal.

Add into the mix a middle-aged band whose members have...issues with each other, and simmer gently...

But the murderer has reckoned without the Parkers- Jodie (aka Nosey), former police officer, her mum Shirley, teenage daughter Daisy, and Jodie's fiance DCI Nathan Withers - who are at the festival running a catering truck for one of Jodie's friends.

Another great adventure in this excellent series

The perfect book for spending an afternoon in the sunshine. It is a lovely cozy murder mystery set at a Festival in Cornwall. The characters are great, it’s well written and flows beautifully. It isn’t too taxing on the brain but very relatable. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

The Cornish Campsite Murder by Fiona Leitch is book 7 in the Nosey Parker series. Thank you to Netgalley, One More Chapter and Fiona Leitch for an advance copy of the book. I have read and enjoyed all the books in this cozy mystery series. They are full of humour. Jodie Parker (nicknamed Nosey Parker) is a great cook with her own catering business so always some lovely food included. She is an ex-detective and her partner DCI Nathan Withers is a currently serving detective so always some mystery-solving going on. Jodie and Nathan, as a favour, have attended a music festival with a friend’s pie van. A body is found on the beach and Nathan, even though on leave, can’t help himself and becomes involved in the investigation. Jodie, as her nickname suggests, also can’t herself and with the help of friends and her Mum, does her bit too. A really good read. Such interesting characters and of course the setting of Cornwall.

Another great read and catch up from the village of Penstowen. Lovely to catch up with Jodie, Nathan and all the gang. This time at a Cornish music festival whilst they work from a Die hard themed pie wagon!for the weekend. The whole gang is there enjoying the festivities and merriment and even Daisy is allowed to camp with her friends under the watchful beast eye of her Mum and Nan. The weather is good, there are pies, booze and some good tunes to be listened to so it should be a perfect weekend and a little holiday for Nathan until a death occurs….. thank you NetGalley for this arc in exchange for an honest review.
