Description

Growing, growing, gone
Penrith, in the heart of the Lake District, is not the kind of place you can easily vanish.

Certainly not when the members of the Penrith Bingo Club are trying to track you down. But even stalwart sleuth, Amita Khatri, and her son in law, Jason, are foxed this time when a local woman tells them her husband, a mild-mannered academic has gone missing.

And hes not the only person to disappear. Soon Amita, Jason, and irascible retired copper, Frank, are searching for more people and some missing money to boot.

From the veg patches of Penrith to the shores of Ullswater, as Jason and Amita comb the Cumbrian countryside for clues, they soon realise theyve stumbled a case where planting the evidence takes on a whole new meaning. And unless they can unearth some answers soon, they might be the next people to disappear

Reviews

Delicious cosy crime tale full of heart and good humour. Bingo-loving Amita and her journalist son-in-law Jason untangle a missing person mystery that leads to unexpected places. A joy from start to finish bravo! D.V. Bishop, award-winning author of the Cesare Aldo historical thrillers

The Garden Club Murders is the brilliant new mystery featuring Amita Khatri and Jason Brazel, the only mother and son-in-law detective duo at large in crime fiction today. This page-turning puzzle draws you in from the very first page and keeps you hooked to the last, with plenty of twists along the way. Full of heart, wit, and affectionate family bickering, and with a wonderful cast of eccentric characters to boot, this funny and clever mystery is cosy crime at its best. Superb! Nicola Whyte, author of 10 Marchfield Square
