This is a fantastic mystery, and it features a book club! The book club meetings are plagued by tragic events. There is the possibility of a budding romance or two in the background. The main character must learn to separate logic from emotion. If she solves the case, is it a price worth paying?

*Murder a la Christie” is a charming and engaging mystery that pays homage to the classic detective novels of Agatha Christie. The story follows Professor Lexie Driscoll, a warm and intelligent protagonist, as she navigates a complex web of secrets and lies to uncover the truth behind a series of murders.

The plot is clever and well-structured, with a steady stream of clues and red herrings that kept me guessing until the very end. The author’s writing style is engaging and accessible, making it easy to become invested in the characters and their stories.

The supporting cast is also well-developed, with a range of intriguing characters that add depth and complexity to the story. The setting, a swanky mansion in the 1980s, adds a touch of glamour and sophistication to the proceedings.

Are you an Agatha Christie lover? Well, Murder a la Christie is the first fun book in the Golden Age of Mystery Bookclub that incorporates many of Christie’s ways. Given that the book club loves Christie this is not surprising.

The book club members are dropping. What she thought was a nice quiet town shows her that there is more than a few dirty secrets hidden within.
There is a cast of many eclectic characters and a complex multilayered web of puzzles our MC has to wade through to find the killer. This fast-paced tale is full of mystery, drama, politics, twists, secrets and danger which keeps the pages turning.
