Most of us are lucky enough to get a bit of time off over Christmas, and what better way to spend it than curled up on the sofa with a book?. But what should we be adding to our ‘to be read’ list? Well, between all that festive mushy stuff – family games and Christmas songs and heaps of chocolate – we think a touch of murder is in order.
Okay, maybe it’s not the time of year to delve into a serial killer biography. But we definitely think a good cosy crime novel – a murder mystery without any of the grizzly stuff – is a necessary reprieve from Christmas-mania. If you feel the same, we’ve rounded up ten of our favourite cosy crime novels. Magnifying glasses at the ready – there’s a murder to solve!.
. We Solve Murders by Richard Osman (£16.99, Waterstones). Having already dominated bestseller lists with his The Thursday Murder Club series (currently being adapted into films produced by the actual Steven Spielberg), Richard Osman has returned with a brand new series, this time featuring retired copper Steve Wheeler and his impulsive daughter-in-law Amy.
Steve is enjoying retired life and has accepted his days of adventure are over. Amy, meanwhile, thinks adrenaline is good for the soul, and is currently working as a private security officer keeping a world-famous author alive. Then a dead body, a bag of money and a restless killer have Amy sending an SOS to the one person she can trust. Can Amy and Steve stay one step ahead of their deadly enemy?.
