Murder at the Book Club

By: Betsy Reavley

Narrated by: Rebecca Courtney

Imagine nine women meeting. Tea and cake are on the coffee table. They’ve come together to share their love of books. They are friends. They trust each other. It’s a happy gathering. What could be more harmless? Scratch the surface and look closer.

One is lonely, one is desperate and one of them is a killer.

When the body of a woman is discovered on a Cambridge common, DCI Barrett and DI Palmer are called to investigate. But the motive behind the crime isn’t clear...and it all leads back to a book club.

As the lies, volatile friendships and tension among the group rise to the surface, DCI Barrett and DI Palmer must work out the motive and track down a cold-blooded killer. But just when they think they are on the right track, a twist in the case throws them off course....

Betsy Reavley is the best-selling author of multiple thrillers including The Optician's Wife, The Quiet Ones and Frailty. This title is an unmissable new whodunnit which will appeal to fans of authors like Cara Hunter, Rachel Abbott, Faith Martin and LJ Ross.

Critic reviews

"A deliciously Agatha Christie-style mystery that sucks you in from the first page." (Sibel Hodge)

It was ok

Not sure until the end who the killer was. Even thou it was short i enjoyed the listen

Meh

Way too many characters. I didn’t love any of them. A little too far fetched for me

Characters

I liked that the ending was a surprise. I usually figure them out. I like to be surprised.

Good story but weak ending

The story is likable. There were a few too many characters and friendships and frenimies to follow, but that added some complexity. The ending was a bit weak

Bad ending

The ending was not good. The intensity to the ending was good. Part 2 maybe.
