The Postscript Murders by Elly Griffiths, 315 pages
In the quiet seaside town of Shoreham, 90-year-old Peggy Smith's carer finds her dead in her apartment. While the peaceful death of an elderly woman shouldn't cause suspicions, the subsequent death of a mystery writer has detective Harbinder Kaur beginning an investigation into both deaths, helped by an odd crew of Peggy's concerned Ukranian caretaker, Peggy's neighbor, and the former monk that owns the local coffee shop, all of whom are convinced that there's a link between the deaths — and that other authors may be next on the murder list!
This is a wonderful cozy-ish mystery, with plenty of nods to golden age mysteries, modern problems, and a truly fresh set of twists and turns. So much fun!
