We Solve Murders by Richard Osman - more brilliant, gentle crime from the author who gave us The Thursday Murder Club. He’s taking a break from that series and has started a new one, centred around a family - Amy, who’s a bodyguard, her father in law Steve – a quiet, eccentric homebody ex cop - and his son Adam. There’s a charming wit and interplay between the characters – and a globe-hopping plot - which makes this a real pleasure to read.
Kingmaker by Sonia Purnell - Pamela Churchill Harriman was a fascinating figure – she married Winston Churchill’s son Randolph – it was not a success – but was recruited as a courtesan to secure useful information for the British government during WW2. She eventually moved to America and married twice more , eventually being appointed as the US ambassador to France. Her story is remarkable, she was a singular figure.
