Condition: BRAND NEW Format: Paperback ISBN: 9780241997482 Publisher: Penguin Series: We Solve Murders (Book 1) Overview: We Solve Murders is Richard Osman's first standalone thriller outside his Thursday Murder Club series, launching a brand-new detective duo. This paperback edition follows retired investigator Steve Wheeler and his fearless daughter-in-law Amy, a private security officer whose island assignment turns deadly. When a body, a bag of money and a ruthless killer collide, Steve and Amy are pulled into a globe-trotting chase. Osman's trademark humour, warmth and clever plotting make this a page-turning must-read for crime fiction fans. About the Book: Amy Wheeler is used to adrenaline. As a private security officer, she's currently stationed on a remote island protecting world-famous novelist Rosie D'Antonio, a job that was supposed to be simple. Instead, a dead body and a bag of money turn the assignment into a nightmare, and a killer sets their sights on Amy herself. With nowhere else to turn, she sends an SOS to her retired father-in-law, Steve. Steve prefers his quiet routines - the pub quiz, his favourite bench, his cat waiting at home - but can't resist one last case. What follows is a breakneck race around the world as Steve's old-school instincts collide with Amy's fearless modern pragmatism. Richard Osman weaves dry British wit, sharp misdirection and genuine warmth between the two leads, delivering short, punchy chapters and satisfying reveals at every turn. The novel explores trust, family loyalty and the price of fame, all while keeping readers guessing until the very last page. From a sun-drenched island to distant cities, the settings add rich texture without slowing the pace. Whether you've read every Thursday Murder Club novel or are new to Osman's fiction, this launch title offers his signature blend of accessible plotting, clever observation and genuine heart, backed by a colourful cast of suspects.
