A Meditation on Murder: A gripping and uplifting cosy crime mystery from the creator of Death in Paradise: Book 1 (A Death in Paradise Mystery)

Product Information

But you know what, I'll probably read all the books in the series regardless of their imperfections: it's lovely to see these characters living on in some form. In fact, he's convinced that the person who's just confessed to the murder is the one person who couldn't have done it.

Man pats interesantākais likās policijas inspektors Ričards Pūls, kurš šķiet iemieso sevī daudz stereotipus par britiem.In this one, Aslan Kennedy gets killed by stabbing with a knife in a small Japanese tea house while he was doing a meditation session with his clients. This wasn’t because he trained himself to turn delicately to each day’s sunrise like a flower; it was because he was hot, bothered, and he he’d been awake since a frog had started croaking outside his window – inexplicably – just before 4am. By 2011, when the show was finally broadcast - making it Robert's first TV broadcast credit at the age of 39 - Robert had become something of a poster boy for 'never giving up on the dream'. The editing is very sloppy as well, with a notable clanger being the character of Selwyn Patterson being referred to as "Selwyn Hamilton" early in the book then by his proper name when he finally shows up. He has a phobia of sand and insists on wearing wool suits in the worst of heat- because that is what detective inspectors do.

Of course, any cosy mystery worth its salt has to chuck in some romance, and across series 1 and 2, the unresolved tension between DI Richard Poole and his (professional) partner, Camille Bordey, quietly became one of the best things about the show. A locked room murder, various suspects that appear both guilty and innocent at the same time, a grumpy but funny detective inspector, and on top of all an idyllic location on a Caribbean island under a burning sun. I was leery of trying this as it’s apparently based on a TV show and I haven’t had good luck with that type of thing, but it was only 99 cents on Kindle so I gave it a shot. Enhance your enjoyment of the series as, for the first time, Robert Thorogood brings the characters to life on the page in an all-new locked-room mystery.It definitely kept me guessing throughout the story and the revelations were very gripping and satisfying. I have already picked up on some of the comic elements of the mystery but I like how each book I have read in the series so far has had some kind of humorous subplot. You can tell he is a fan of Agatha Christie, the piecing together of the crime is a delight to read and in no way did I even come close to guessing.
