Who will you trust when the next page could reveal a killer? “A deliciously Agatha Christie-style mystery that sucks you in from the first page.” —Sibel Hodge, bestselling author of Look Behind You

Imagine this: nine women, seemingly bound by their love of books, meet for a charming afternoon of tea, cake, and conversation. It’s a setting that promises warmth and laughter, but behind each smile lies something darker.

One is lonely. Another is desperate. And one of them . . . is a killer.

When a woman’s body is discovered on a Cambridge common, DCI Barrett and DI Palmer must scratch the surface and look closer at an apparently harmless book club.

And when they uncover that each of the women has a motive for murder, it becomes clear the killer might be closer than anyone thinks . . .

If you’re a fan of The Thursday Murder Club and love diving into the secrets hidden beneath quiet friendly gatherings, get ready for this gripping mystery, full of intrigue and suspense, that will have you guessing until the final page.
