The Fan Who Knew Too Much
The Fan Who Knew Too Much
Description
Launching a new series, a podcaster and cult science fiction superfan stages a documentary to solve her friend's murder, and a 40-year-old disappearance, in this riotous and fiendishly twisty mystery.
Perfect for fans of classic TV such as Doctor Who and Star Trek, wobbly cardboard sets and spandex costumes, and sharp-witted amateur detective crime such as Richard Osman, J. M. Hall and Andrew Cartmel.
Kit Pelham is a professional fan, interviewer, host of the podcast 'The First Cult is the Deepest', and occasional obituary writer. Except this time the obituary is for her friend, maverick podcaster Wolf Tyler, who is murdered in his shed during a live broadcast, moments before revealing a huge secret about the cult TV show 'Vixens from the Void'.
Kit and her group of friends and fellow superfans Victor, Robbie, Freya and the irrepressible loon Binfire soon realise Wolf had discovered something about the disappearance of Lily Sparkes, an extra on 'Vixens from the Void', back in 1986. And it was a secret worth killing for...
To find justice for their friend, and much more importantly new trivia about their favourite TV show, the gang form a plan, to put together a 'Then and Now' documentary bringing the original cast and crew together for one last paycheck, and the chance to interview them one more time.
Armed with only a shoestring budget, an occasionally soggy drone, action figures (in the original packaging) and encyclopaedic knowledge of 80s science fiction TV, Kit has just four days to discover Wolf's secret, and solve his murder. May the best fan win...
