Jayme's Reviews > We Solve Murders

He sends emails in the tone of a British Gentleman using ChatGPT to disguise his real identity…

But WHO is François Loubet?

He is a powerful money smuggler and he is using unsuspecting “Influencers” being protected by Maximum Impact Solutions to move his money.

Amy Wheeler is a private security officer, for Maximum Impact Solutions and she is currently on a remote island keeping world-famous author Rosie D’Antonio alive. (think an older Samantha from Sex in the City or even Blanche from the Golden Girls)

It was supposed to be an EASY job.

But dead bodies and bags of money, keep showing up with Amy’s blood always found nearby. She is being set up.

Amy will have to turn to the ONLY person she feels she can trust for help-a retired cop and “sometimes” local investigator who just happens to be her father-in-law-Steve Wheeler.

Steve has recently lost his beloved wife Debbie, and he talks to her from a bench near his home, finds comfort from a stray cat named Trouble, which he recently adopted, and enjoys pints and Pub quizzes with his neighbors.

He has no desire to travel the World only one step ahead of the several would-be assassins who are tracking both Rosie and (now) Amy.

But, he loves Amy, so he won’t say no.

The result? Another fast paced, mystery filled with a new cast of likable characters and the same trademark HUMOR we have come to expect from the talented Richard Osman.

YES- he has another HIT on his hands!

I have LOVED his Thursday Murder Club series ( and am glad there will be more) but I am now ALSO looking forward to more cases for the “ We Solve Murders” agency. If you enjoyed TMC-I do believe that you will enjoy this series too!

The acknowledgments chapter at the end of the book hints at which characters will be back and I am glad to see that the hilarious and IRRESISTIBLE Rosie D’Antonio will be one of them. Hopefully we will get to know Amy’s husband Adam a bit better in the next installment.

A buddy read with Mary Beth-Did she enjoy her first by Osman?

AVAILABLE NOW!

I paired my reading with the fantastic Audible narrated by Nicola Walker. I wish to thank the Chandler Public Library for the loan of both formats!
