I read "We Solve Murders" in less than 24 hours (while on Christmas break) and I absolutely loved it. Loved the characters, loved the pace, even loved the crazy improbable plot.
This makes me wonder why I couldn't get into the authors pervious books in the The Thursday Murder Club series. I'll try them again, and if it's still a no, I'll try the TV adaptation. I do remember getting lost early in The Thursday Murder Club, unable to keep track of all the characters, so maybe this is one of those books that only works when you’re properly on holiday and your brain has switched off from work?
Blurb:
Steve Wheeler is enjoying retired life. He still does the odd bit of investigation work, but he prefers the pub quiz and afternoons at home with his cat Trouble. His days of adventure are over – that’s his daughter-in-law Amy’s business now.
Amy Wheeler thinks adrenaline is good for the soul, which makes being a private security officer to billionaires the perfect job. She’s currently on a remote island keeping world-famous author Rosie D’Antonio alive. Then a dead body, a bag of money and a killer with their sights on Amy have her sending Steve an SOS . . .
As a breakneck race around the world begins, can they stay one step ahead of a deadly enemy?
