NOW A MAJOR TV SERIES starring Samantha Bond, Jo Martin, and Cara Horgan. Season 3 coming in 2026! `I want to be Judith Potts when I grow up' Reader review ★★★★★ `Comedy, thrilling, suspenseful. It was a brilliant read' Reader review ★★★★★ `A deftly plotted, funny and unexpected murder mystery . Highly recommended!' Reader review ★★★★★ * * * To solve an impossible murder, you need an impossible hero. Seventy-seven-year-old Judith Potts is blissfully happy. She lives alone in a faded mansion in Marlow, sets crosswords for The Times, and there's no man in her life to tell her what to do or how much whisky to drink. One evening, while out swimming in the Thames, Judith witnesses a brutal murder. When the local police don't believe her story, Judith and two unlikely friends decide to investigate for themselves. Together, they are the Marlow Murder Club. But soon another body turns up, and it seems they have a real-life serial killer on their hands. Now the puzzle they set out to solve has become a trap from which they might never escape. * * * Praise for Robert Thorogood 'A plot so ingenious it kept me guessing until the very end' Matt Dunn, author of Home `Cosy crime at its best' Crime Monthly `This brilliantly crafted, hugely enjoyable and suitably goosebump-inducing novel is an utter delight from start to finish' Heat `Thrilling and heartfelt, gripping and wonderfully humorous, The Marlow Murder Club is an absolute joy from first page to last' Chris Whitaker
