About this deal
The main characters sympathetic enough but indifferent as personalities and didn't manage to captivate me! While swimming one evening she hears a gunshot echo across the garden of her neighbor, local art gallery owner Stefan Dunwoody. The police are baffled but the ladies are able to find some initial clues (this is so typical of cozy mysteries), and after the police hit a wall in their investigation the ladies are officially brought into the case.
Judith witnesses what she believes is the murder of her neighbor one evening while swimming in the river. Gosh, I have read some really atrocious books lately and unfortunately now I need to add another one to the pile of "Books I will never go near again. When he does, she tries to get him to monologue by confronting him with her knowledge of how the 3 of them committed the crimes.When Judith meets Becks Starling, the sweet wife of the local Vicar, and Suzie Harris, a dedicated dog walker, they both agree to assist in the 'unofficial' murder investigation and The Marlow Murder Club is formed! I highly recommend this book to readers who have enjoyed The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman and Killers of a Certain Age by Deanna Raybourn. The Marlow Murder Club is relentless in their pursuit of any clue that could lead them to solve the murders. She's not big on keeping her mansion tidy, there might be a bra hanging from something in the living room, but she is happy with her way of life.

I need more of a story behind this thing because, to be honest, it sounds like she looks ridiculous. Overall, The Marlow Murder Club is a very enjoyable read and one that will suit fans of detective stories such as those written by Agatha Christie, and if you like watching Death in Paradise then you will enjoy reading this as it is a written in a similar way.In book-likes it reminded me a bit of The Thursday Murder Club and if you've read my reviews of that, you know that is a very good thing.
