Book Signing
EC Bateman – Author of the Stamford Mysteries
14th November 2026 – 11am – 1pm – Stamford Store
Come along and meet Emily Bateman, author of the Stamfo
rd Mysteries, as she signs copies of her latest, and likely to be Stamford Number 1 Book this Christmas, Death Under The Hammer.
How well do you really know your neighbours? For auctioneer Felicia Grant, it should have been the simplest of jobs — a routine pre-Christmas valuation in a quiet, picture-perfect cul-de-sac. But when she discovers two of her clients stabbed to death in their festively decorated sitting room, Felicia finds herself in the frame for murder. With the real killer still at large, she must race to clear her name.
Because in this deceptively cosy little street, everyone has something to hide… Cosy crime readers are loving E.C. Bateman: ‘Another brilliant adventure in this excellent series’ – ‘Ideal for fans of Richard Osman’s books… this murder mystery will keep you guessing as the bodies stack up! Full of red herrings, twists and turns, wonderful characters and fabulous houses.’ – ‘Set in the historic town of Stamford, this murder set in the antiques trade is a brilliantly plotted mystery.’ – ‘A thoroughly enjoyable cosy murder mystery… I’m looking forward to the next book already!’ – ‘Mystery and intrigue… written by a talented and gifted author.’ – ‘An absorbing murder mystery… Lots of interesting information about Antique auctions was a added bonus.’ – Cover illustrated by local Stamford illustrator Katie Cardew.
