Description

When a vintage Jaguar hired for a high-octane film nearly kills its star in a spectacular stunt gone very wrong, the blame lands squarely at the door of Ashcombe Motors.

But Billy and Ollie Ashcombe—siblings, classic car restorers, and reluctant sleuths—aren't about to take the fall for someone else's sabotage. As they dig into the film's glossy façade, they discover a tangle of off-the-books hires, whispered threats, and a trail of bent bolts that leads all the way to the top of Castle/Verve Studios.

With their reputation on the line and someone clearly desperate to silence them, the Ashcombes swap spanners for subpoenas and trade rust for risk. From country lanes to red carpets, they're determined to find out who turned a stunt into a setup—and why a classic car might be worth more wrecked than running.

Full of sharp banter, high-stakes twists, and vintage style, The Stunt Gone Wrong is the third Ashcombe Classic Car Mystery—a cosy, clever ride where the engines are polished, the lies are greasy, and the truth is always under the bonnet.
