Cosplay Killer by Dahlia Donovan
London Podcast Mystery, Book 1
Osian Garey and Dannel Ortea live together in a colourful flat in Covent Garden. They run a podcast and throw themselves wholeheartedly into Cosplay, video games, and musical theatre. This year, they’re all fired up to attend their annual convention with a group of first responders.
When Osian finds a paramedic friend murdered in the middle of the crowded venue, the police immediately turn their attention to him.
They have one question on their mind.
Is he the first witness on the scene or the killer?
As the mystery unfolds, Osian has to face the trauma of his last job as a paramedic. Somewhere in those memories, a killer waits to exact revenge. They’ll have to prove Osian’s innocence and fight for their own survival when the killer puts them both in their sights.

At the age of thirty, Osian hadn’t expected to have a mid-life crisis. His best friend and former paramedic partner, Abra, had told him all he needed was a reset. He hadn’t found an on-off switch yet.
He returned to stand by the window and watched people strolling down the sidewalk. Chin up. Maybe something interesting will happen. But you can’t hang around all day waiting for it to happen.
Making a quick decision, Osian grabbed his mobile before he could change his mind. He phoned Abra while shoving his laptop into a bag. She readily accepted his invite.
The weather was deceptively beautiful outside; he might as well get some work done while enjoying the fresh air. Abra promised to bring a picnic. Osian shoved a mini bottle of wine into his bag and headed out to the gardens of a nearby church.
Of all the available open spaces, Osian loved the church gardens. They were quiet. No one ever bothered him there, not even the priests.
It probably helped that he and Abra had once been called out to help one of the elderly priests who’d suffered a stroke.
“Ciao.” Abra hopped over the bench to sit beside him. She waved a container. “I brought snacks.”
“Ciao? Really?” Osian shook his head, brushing her wild mane of curly hair out of his face. “I know you’re Italian, but you don’t speak a word of it. Who are you showing off for?”
“Spaghetti. Latte. Grande.”
“Is latte Italian? I’m not sure food counts, or made-up Starbucks words.” He grabbed the container and pulled the lid off to find mini potato pizzas. He couldn’t remember what they were called, but she’d made them before. “Yum.”
“Yes, latte’s Italian, you numpty. I promised my nan I’d learn.”
“Shouldn’t that be your nonna, then?” Osian snagged one of the pizzas. “How’s work?”
“Oz.”
He held up a hand in surrender. “Just asking.”
She narrowed her hazel eyes on him. “It’s not the same without you. They keep having me train noobs. Think they’re hoping you’ll come back.”
Osian clenched his fingers around the pizza. He forced himself to breathe. “Can’t.”
“Bene. Fine.”
“So how much time are you spending on Duolingo?” Osian teased.
“It’s like my judgemental mother. Messaging me at least once a day to ask if I’ve done what I promised to do.” She accepted the paper bag he offered. “Oh! Tosca. You wicked man.”
“Yeah, yeah. Read this.” Osian twisted his laptop around so she could see the email. “Got this in the podcast inbox.”
“Why don’t you investigate the crimes of a paramedic murdering a patient?” Abra read the single line of the email. “What the…?”
Osian glanced up when she didn’t finish her sentence. “Weird, right?”
“Distinctly odd.”
