From the creator of the BBC One hit TV series, Death in Paradise

To solve an impossible murder, you need an impossible hero…

Judith Potts is seventy-seven years old and blissfully happy. She lives on her own in a faded mansion just outside Marlow, there’s no man in her life to tell her what to do or how much whisky to drink, and to keep herself busy she sets crosswords for The Times newspaper. 

One evening, while out swimming in the Thames, Judith witnesses a brutal murder. The local police don’t believe her story, so she decides to investigate for herself, and is soon joined in her quest by Suzie, a salt-of-the-earth dog-walker, and Becks, the prim and proper wife of the local Vicar.

Together, they are the Marlow Murder Club.

When another body turns up, they realise they have a real-life serial killer on their hands. And the puzzle they set out to solve has become a trap from which they might never escape…

I am a huge fan of the hit show Death in Paradise, so you can only imagine my excitement when I heard about The Marlow Murder Club.  I devoured the book in a couple of sittings. Not only is it mysterious and thrilling but  heartfelt and amusing. It truly is like nothing I have ever read before.

Similar to the TV show, nothing is as it seems and you are always guessing about who the killer is.

I adore the lead character, 77 year old Judith Potts who is a key witness. She is unflappable, spritely, amusing, confident, relentless and absolutely amazing, I would love to meet her.

The Marlow Murder Club is a delightful tonic and has brightened these dreary days and I am eager to read the next book in the series.

So if you’re a fan of Death in Paradise, Agatha Christie, especially the Miss Marple series, then I highly recommend you pick up a copy of The Marlow Murder Club.
