The third installment of the Marlow Murder Club. This time the police involve our 3 sleuths right away! But as implausible as that is, that plot device give Judith, Suzie and Becks access to things outside their remit as civilians.
It carried along at a good pace with it staying in the vein of a cosy mystery. Some moments that made me smile. The ending I did not see coming but at that point absolutely everyone had been a suspect and we had followed a few red herrings.
A solid addition to the series.
