BOOK REVIEW: The Village Detectives & the Poison Pen Letters by Fiona Walker (blog tour)


MY REVIEW

Being a huge fan of Fiona's romantic comedies since I was in my twenties, as soon as I realised she was writing cosy mysteries, I had to read and review this book! Even though I missed the first book in the series, The Village Detectives & the Art of Murder, (which I plan to go back and read) it did not ruin my reading pleasure at all.

Set in the village of Inkbury, the book follows the newly formed village detectives, a motley crew of friends led by our interpid protagonist Juno, who are set on solving a murder mystery that occurs right on one of their doorsteps. The book is hilarious in places, ingeniously written and so full of twists and turns, I had absolutely no idea who was guilty and who wasn't come the end.

Such a fabulous read and a must for Richard Osman fans - Highly recommended!


The Poison Pen Letters

We regret to announce the tragic death of Phoebe Fredericks…

When crime novelist Phoebe opens the post and receives an invitation to her own funeral, she’s horrified. Not least because the date of her death is marked as tomorrow.

Deciding it’s nothing more than a prank from an enemy from her past, she determines to put it to the back of her mind.

But the next morning, when her completely infuriating postman (who likes to think himself her no.1 literary critic) rings her doorbell, a parcel of poisoned pen-nibs explodes in his face. Forced to confront the fact her correspondence is more RIP than RSVP, Phoeve realises someone must want her dead.

Together with the newly-formed Village Detectives – Juno, Mil and Felix – Phoebe resolves to find out who is behind the poison pen letters before they strike again and her fate is signed, sealed and delivered!

An totally hilarious, modern cozy crime mystery, from million-copy bestselling author Fiona Walker, perfect for fans of Richard Osman, Janet Evanovich and Janice Hallett.
