To Catch A Creeper: A Crouch End Confidential Mystery (English Edition) Format Kindle
'Insanely good read for fans of humor and mystery cozies' Rabid Readers Reviews
'Definitely kept you on the edge of your seat and turning page after page till the end. I couldn't stop reading this one!' Night Owl Reviews
Cathy is riding high in her brand-new job at a (surprisingly bitchy) top London advertising agency working with best friend Rosa. But when Rosa's pregnancy goes amiss and enemies sabotage her new career, she finds herself leading a chaotic double life of lies and deception, hiding a shameful secret from all, especially husband Declan who appears in the throes of a nervous breakdown. Meanwhile she's agreed to unmask the notorious Crouch End Creeper, a burglar terrorizing their neighbourhood. Little does she know that her meddling, assisted by fellow mothers (the Wednesday Once Weeklies) and the Neighbourhood Watch, will lead their dangerous opponent to murder. And that it's not only the tall elegant transvestite who is placing herself at risk...

5,0 sur 5 étoiles Insanely good read for fans of humor and mystery cozies....
Sister team Pam Burks and Lorraine Campbell have done it again. “To Catch a Creeper” is the best of British comedy. For the reader’s information, the authors gifted this novel to me. I liked the novel so much that immediately after reading, I bought a copy as a gift for a friend. For readers wondering how the authors would progress with the same characters from the wonderfully wacky “Looking for La La,” they do so keeping Cathy in her element while expanding her world.
For those of us who think we know Cathy, “To Catch a Creeper” adds a new dimension. Touted as a woman put together in the wake of the notoriety from her last case, we know Cathy is far from a woman who has all of the boxes of her life ticked. She may not seem to the reader to be a woman to whom a person should turn for help but she inspires confidence from her friends and she simply cannot say no when they embroil here in their complicated lives.
As with “Looking for LaLa,” this novel is written with consistency and flow not indicative of a writing team. The main thrusts of the story have to do with the pregnancy of Cathy’s friend Rosa and the solving of the case of the Crouch End Creeper. This storytelling is delightfully schizophrenic while maintaining the reader’s attention and never leaving us behind. With lines going out everywhere the exaggerated reality of Cathy’s situation had me laughing beginning to end. In many cases, Cathy is truly her own worst enemy.
While it would be a shame for readers not to enjoy the wonderful “Looking for LaLa” before reading “To Catch a Creeper,” it is certainly not necessary to do so. Cathy’s second misadventures work well as a stand-alone read. Pick it up today!

4,0 sur 5 étoiles An easy read and good giggle
A good giggle of a book. The main character doesn't behave as you might expect, but she is believable and gets herself into many scrapes. I could feel myself transported to her world and really enjoyed this light-hearted story.

5,0 sur 5 étoiles Such an entertaining read
This is the third book I have read by the sisters writing under the name of Ellie Campbell. I really like their writing style - so upbeat and a little crazy with the characters, but if you just go with it you are in for a really good enjoyable read.
There is a new book out in a few weeks called "Meddling with Murder" which is a sequel to this book - so I thought I had better get this off my virtual TBR personal shelf and read it.
In this book we meet Cathy again from "Looking for La La" but it is not necessary to have read that book first as there are enough references for this to be a standalone book, but without the - "I know all this" when you have read the previous book.
Cathy really could put a stop to all the misunderstandings and chaos that surrounds her life if she just told the truth - but that would be boring. I enjoyed the character more in this book, probably because I felt I already knew her and was willing to go along for the ride that is her mad life.
There is yet again a "whodunnit" element to this book - I really thought I knew who it was, but I was a mile out! But the whodunnit is not the whole story, intermixed is Cathy struggling to fit in with a new job after returning to work, being undermined and also joining the neighbourhood watch. Not to mention her Husband having a mid life crisis - or is he?
Such an entertaining read and some very true to life insights underneath all the slapstick.
I'm giving this book five out of five stars.

4,0 sur 5 étoiles Not All Housewives are Boring!
If you read Looking for La La, this is a sequel to that book. Cathy, an ordinary housewife, seems to get herself into some precarious situations because she is just a women who is either nosy or just seems to stumble on problems with her friends/neighbors. You can't help but laugh and relate to "everyday housewife-ness" as some of her neighbors are burglarized by the Crouch End Creeper. Much of this book is pretty funny and there are some laugh out loud moments. I love the Britishisms (I guess I made that word up) that they say in the book. Some of those are as funny as anything that Cathy "meant" to say. A great quick read by the sister writing duo, Ellie Campbell. If you haven't read Looking for La La, pick that one up first.
