Meet the cast of Jubilee Terrace, one of the most popular soap operas on British television. When one of the cast members dies suddenly of a heart attack, those in the production team are quick to make the most of the opportunity, making plans to bring in an old character for a major plotline. But when a suspicious letter emerges raising questions about the supposed ‘natural death’ and an arson attack kills two more of the cast, it would appear something more sinister is afoot. The script-writers are clearly not the only ones capable of killing off characters…

      Last seen in Diamond Dagger Award–winner Barnard's A Fall from Grace
      (2007), Det. Insp. Charlie Peace investigates deadly doings surrounding a long-running TV soap opera, Jubilee Terrace
      , filmed in Leeds in a novel of suspense sharing more than a passing kinship with the world of TV soaps: the craftsmanship is never less than professional, the plot keeps percolating, but by the end, the reader is unlikely to give it a second thought. The opening roster of characters on Jubilee Terrace
      and the actors who portray them is useful, since apart from Peace—who shows up on the set to look into the tip that an unpopular thespian's death might not have been accidental—and a few others, it's tough to keep the players straight. The ante escalates after a fire claims two lives, though Bernard miscalculates by tipping what should be the climactic twist too early. Fans may enjoy catching up with Peace, but other mystery buffs will find little cause for jubilation.
