mystery
Amy is a personal bodyguard who has been hired to protect a long-adored famous author. When Amy realizes that 1) three influencers have recently been murdered in cities where she was located on assignment, 2) this makes her look like a possible suspect, and 3) someone is trying to kill her, she must flee, taking the author she’s protecting along. The only person available and trustworthy enough to help her is her father-in-law, a retired British police investigator. Together, they attempt to solve these murders so that the crimes are not pinned on Amy.
This was my second Richard Osman novel. In both, he created wonderful, lovable characters—especially vivacious, astute, intelligent senior citizens to whom the reader is impelled to care about.
While I don’t love murder mysteries in general, We Solve Murders spent the first half as a dramedy describing such engaging characters and situations that I had to keep reading to find out what happened, even once it became a murder mystery. I enjoyed it and look forward to the sequel!
The audiobook narrator, Nicola Walker, did a fabulous job. And the cast of characters in her vocal repertoire was great for this novel. She displayed great skill at speaking with multiple accents. I’ll give her an A.
