The Marlow Murder Club plot
Retired archaeologist Judith Potts lives alone in a dilapidated mansion in the peaceful town of Marlow, filling her time by completing crossword puzzles for the local newspaper. During one of her regular swims in the Thames, Judith hears a gunshot from a neighbour’s garden and suspects a brutal murder has taken place. When the police refuse to believe her story, Judith forms an unlikely friendship with local dog walker Suzie and the vicar’s wife Becks as they launch their own investigation. Eventually, she is asked to assist with the official police investigation, led by the recently promoted Tanika.
