Back in Norfolk, our intrepid R.E.D. (Retired Extremely Daisy) heroine finds taking it easier doesn��t come naturally!
Jack takes on the last-minute responsibility of rescuing a stage production of ‘Some Like It Hot’, after it was cancelled because half the cast went down with a virus. It is to take place at the famous theatre on the end of Cromer Pier in North Norfolk.
He ropes in his actor friend Will (who played Jack Sparrow in ‘Pirates’) and persuades Celia to take on the Marilyn Monroe role of ‘Sugar Cane’ from the movie, which she reluctantly accepts.
By some miracle they make opening night, which is attended by Daisy and Aidan. It’s all going well, but then the unexpected happens… during the performance, someone is murdered.
Sarah (in her wheelchair) and Burrows are initially baffled by the motive, but then things take a much darker turn. The murderer isn’t finished exacting revenge, takes several hostages, and threatens to blow up the pier.
It becomes the first case for the newly-formed detective agency, as everyone is literally in the room when it happens!
For Daisy, who watched the murder unfold from the audience, taking a back seat on the case, and clicking away with crocheting needles goes out of the window, as the situation becomes more and more desperate.

‘Some Like It Tepid’ is a Norfolk-based adventure, set within one of the county’s famous venues.
