We Solve Murders

by Richard Osman

Heavy-duty mysteries are never my thing, but We Solve Murders (Book 1) burst onto my scene with the chaotic charm of a crime-solving circus. These sleuths are as eccentric as the cases they're unraveling. Picture a taxidermist sidekick with a penchant for jazzercise, a crime consultant who moonlights as a psychic pet whisperer, and a string of suspects that make a clown car look underpopulated. Packed with snappy wit and laugh-out-loud banter, this quick read doesn’t just crack cases, it skewers those genre tropes with a wink and a grin. I liked Osman’s style; his whodunit is served with a side of mayhem.
