Cast in Order of Disappearance is the first in Simon Brett's first mystery series, the Charles Paris series. I've read and enjoyed a lot of books in this series, including this one, although I'm a bit fonder of Brett's later Blotto/Twinks and Mrs. Pargeter series. In any case, Cast has dropped to $2.99 at Kindle US, which is not great for more than 40-year old backlist, but per eReaderIQ, it hasn't been even this cheap in years, so grab it if you want it...

Who killed Marcus Steen, the theatrical tycoon with a fortune to leave to his young mistress Jacqui? And who killed Bill Sweet, the shady blackmailer with a supply of compromising photographs? Charles Paris, a middle-aged actor addicted to booze and women, decides to investigate by assuming a variety of roles, among them that of the mythical Detective Sergeant McWhirter. But, as Paris is about to discover only too painfully, impersonating a police officer is never a good idea.
