Murder at the Mic

At the Pitch Perfect Lounge, the music stops — and the mystery begins. When retired librarian Martha "e;Marty"e; Penrose moves into Sunset Cottages retirement community, she expects quiet evenings, book clubs, and fresh starts. Instead, her first karaoke night ends with a body discovered backstage — one she nearly trips over herself. The victim is Lisa Harper, a sharp-tongued singer with a talent for collecting enemies and keeping secrets. As Lieutenant Delaney's investigation stalls, Marty can't resist putting her cataloguing instincts to work. Armed with a legal pad, a nose for inconsistency, and her diabetic alert dog Cody — who proves to have detective instincts of his own — she teams up with her flamboyant neighbor Carla and tech-savvy granddaughter Ellie to follow the money, the music, and the motives. Featuring a cast of colorful suspects, small-town charm, and one very capable cocker spaniel, Murder at the Mic is a warm, witty mystery about friendship, fresh starts, and finding clarity — even when your cataracts get in the way.
