One body uncovered. One body on display. Two family member’s names to clear. Can Maggie, Clara, Marple, and The Mystery Book Club find the real murderers before it’s too late?
Includes:
Body in the Book Shop
A hidden body. A silk ribbon. A bouquet of flowers.
When a body is found in the walled up recess of her bookshop, Maggie’s dead father falls under suspicion for murder. Determined to find the truth about the unidentified victim, Maggie starts her own investigation against the wishes of the local police.
When Marple uncovers a bouquet of flowers and a ribbon in the debris of the demolished wall, Clara is happy to track down their origin to help clear her great-grandfather’s name, and to distract her from worsening relations with her ex, Tyrone.
Then Marple reveals some more disturbing evidence. Can the Mystery Book Club solve the puzzle before long buried wounds are reopened?
Murder at the Motel
A jilted boyfriend. A missing ring. A ripped photograph.
When Clara and Aroha agree to help their friend Dominic with a pre-opening event at his newly refurbished motel, they expect an afternoon of serving tea and cake— not a corpse in one of the rooms.
Now, with the police locking down the building and naming everyone on-site a suspect, Clara finds herself trapped in close quarters with the one person she’d hoped never to see again.
As tensions rise and secrets surface, Clara and Aroha must uncover the truth before her whole world falls apart.
And when Clara herself becomes the next target, Maggie and the book club dig for clues from the outside. But time is running out — and the killer is closer than anyone thinks.
