Murder the Tey Way (Golden Age of Mystery Book Club) by Marilyn Levinson – Review by Christie Mitchum

Murder the Tey Way by Marilyn Levinson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Murder the Tey Way is the second book in the Golden Age of Mystery Bookclub, and it was as good as the first one.

Lexie Driscoll has found herself embroiled in yet another murder mystery. Her sister, Gayle, whom she hasn’t seen in years, shows up, and she is terrified. She witnessed her boyfriend being killed, and she now lives in fear. She is confident the killer is now coming after her. Not long after Gayle’s arrival, they discover a dead man in Lexie’s backyard. After getting the story from her sister, Gayle flees again.

As she becomes involved in this investigation, she also discovers her bookclub members have secrets, and then a member of her bookclub is also murdered. Are the two murders connected, and what are the members of the club hiding?

As with the first book, the twists, turns, and pacing make it a great mystery. There is also some added romance. Lexie finds herself torn between two men who are completely different from one another, yet both could give her a life she yearns for. However, she has her own issues with commitment to work through. She fears making a grave mistake again, making it hard to trust anyone. I also enjoyed the references to Josephine Tey.

I’m looking forward to the next book in the series and to seeing what new crime our favorite professor will be involved in.
