The Marlow Murder Club Mysteries feature a team of resident amateur sleuths who leap into action when mysterious events occur. The books are now part of a major BBC TV series.
Murder on the Marlow Belle features the mysterious disappearance of Oliver Beresford, founder of the Marlow Amateur Dramatic Society. After an exclusive party aboard The Marlow Belle pleasure cruiser, Oliver’s body washes up on the Thames sporting two bullet holes. Oliver’s wife, Verity, calls on The Marlow Murder Club for help. But Oliver’s a complicated man with enemies aplenty. And are the Marlow Amateur Dramatic Society quite what they seem? The amateur detectives must keep their wits about them if they’re to stop a killer getting away.
