Mystery Review: Death Comes To Marlow

Death Comes To Marlow — Robert Thorogood

Judith, Suzie, and Becks are back—only this time, they find themselves embroiled in a classic locked room mystery. Unsurprisingly, there’s plenty of suspicious behavior, motives, and suspects to go around, as the murder occurred the day before the wedding of one of Marlow’s great and good. 

I still really love this series. 

The snark, mystery, and humor work so well with the mystery. Plus, the relatableness of the Marlow Murder Club and (honorary member) Detective Tanika makes this a satisfying book to read. The fact it feels like a modern take on the classic Golden Age mystery doesn’t hurt either. 

You don’t necessarily need to read these in order, as they don’t spoil the endings of the previous books in the newer ones. However, if you enjoy watching characters evolve and grow, I recommend starting with book one — The Marlow Murder Club. But if that sort of thing doesn’t worry you, then you’ll be fine so long as you know Death Comes To Marlow isn’t the first in series.
