Buried in a Good Book

Award-winning author Tamara Berry delivers a page-turning murder mystery with the first instalment in her engrossing cosy crime series – one not to be missed by fans of Richard Osman and The Marlow Murder Club! *** 2023 EDGAR AWARD WINNER: LILIAN JACKSON BRAUN MEMORIAL PRIZE "A slapstick comedy of murder." – Library Journal "Truly original, funny, and well written. A real standout." – Mystery Scene *** Bestselling thriller writer Tess Harrow is almost at the end of her rope when she arrives with her teenage daughter at her grandfather´s rustic cabin in the woods. She hopes this will be a time for them to heal and bond after Tess´s recent divorce, but they´ve barely made it through the door when an explosion shakes the cabin. Suddenly, it´s raining fish guts and…is that a human arm? Tess was hardly convincing Gertie that a summer without Wi-Fi and running water would be an adventure. Now she´s thrust into a murder investigation, neighbours are saying they´ve spotted Bigfoot in the woods near her cabin, and the local sheriff is the spitting image of her character Detective Gabriel Gonzales – something he´s less than thrilled about. With so much more than her daughter´s summer plans at stake, it´s up to Tess to solve this case before anyone else gets hurt. Where will these clues lead? A thriller writer who knows way more than anyone should about death and dismemberment Her young daughter who´s more intrigued by dead bodies than she probably should be An isolated cabin in the woods that´s probably (definitely) hiding something The tiny mountain town that seems less than troubled by a sudden abundance of murders Put your sleuthing hat on and dive into an unforgettable cosy murder mystery!
