Publisher's Synopsis
** PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED AS The Agatha Christie Book Club **
When Alicia Finlay walks out on her boring old book club and decides to start a new one-one totally devoted to her favourite genre, crime-she can not imagine the trouble she is about to unleash...
After gathering seven crime devotees together-including ditzy librarian Missy, fashionista Claire, paleontologist Perry, dashing Dr Anders, a poisons expert, and socialite Barbara Parlour-Alicia grows suspicious when one of them fails to show for the next club meet. Barbara has vanished and her husband, Arthur, is curiously unconcerned. The group suspects him of foul play until he meets his own foul fate.
With two baffling mysteries on their hands, the book club decide to do as their favourite fictional sleuths would do, and investigate!
So begins the first instalment of THE MURDER MYSTERY BOOK CLUB, a motley collection of amateur sleuths who must sort the real clues from the red herrings to solve the murder of Arthur Parlour and the mystery of his missing wife. They must also look closer to home because each of them is hiding a secret that could crack the case wide open.
A contemporary cozy mystery for those looking for fun and adventure at their next book club.
