Ella Whitehead is Francine Witt!
The third Francine Witt mystery arrives with a sharper edge and a tighter circle, set against a New York City that crackles with wit, glamour, and barely concealed tension.
Now available in audiobook, POURED OUT: A Francine Witt Mystery sees narrator Ella Whitehead fully inhabit Francine like never before. This isn’t just narration, it’s embodiment. Every glance, every aside, every perfectly timed line lands exactly as it should, and in a story where every voice matters, that makes all the difference.
A Closed Circle in the City That Never Sleeps
An exclusive Manhattan gala, a table set for the most powerful guests in the room, and one chair left conspicuously empty.
What begins as an elegant evening quickly spirals into something far more dangerous as Francine finds herself drawn into a tightly wound mystery where everyone is hiding something, and no one is leaving.
With the ghost of Dorothy Parker hovering over every cutting remark and raised glass, POURED OUT trades sprawling conspiracies for something far more dangerous: proximity, this time, the killer is already in the room.
Ella Whitehead at Her Absolute Best
Returning to the role she made her own, Ella Whitehead delivers a performance that elevates every moment:
🔥 Francine’s razor-sharp wit, delivered with perfect timing
🗽 A seamless cast of convincing American accents across a fully New York ensemble
🍷 The intimacy of Francine’s internal monologue, sharper, funnier, more vulnerable than ever
💋 The subtle shifts in tension, desire, and suspicion that simmer beneath every exchange
With a predominantly American cast around Francine, Ella’s range is on full display, moving effortlessly between characters while keeping Francine’s voice front and centre.
What Listeners Are Saying
“Francine Witt has never sounded better — Ella Whitehead completely is her.”
“The New York setting, the dialogue, the tension… this one hooks you and doesn’t let go.”
“A perfectly paced mystery. Smart, stylish, and impossible to pause.”
The Most Addictive Francine Witt Mystery Yet
If FULL BODIED introduced Francine’s world and BOTTLED UP deepened it, POURED OUT refines it to perfection.
This time, the mystery is more contained, the dialogue sharper and drier, and the stakes more personal. Francine Witt has never been more confident, or more incisive.
