The Most Unusual Mysteries Books One to Three

Enjoy three cozy crime novels in one boxset, packed with suspects, wit and mysteries waiting to be solved…

A Most Unusual Demise

A well-read old dear has an unhealthy interest in murder, in this sharp, witty, and refreshingly original cozy crime novel.

Retired librarian and bookshop owner May Morrigan lives in the affluent village of Blackheath with Fletcher, her best friend since they met decades ago, and May's two dogs. What could be more normal? But May is not your average little old lady…

A Most Malicious Messenger

Menacing texts lead to murder in an English village, in this unmissable, witty mystery by the Dagger Award–nominated author of A Most Unusual Demise.

May Morrigan is in her bookshop one morning when she – and everyone else in the shop – receives an anonymous text. It contains a reference to a Shakespeare quotation – and seems to be aimed at the vicar and his partner, Juan. The next morning, one of them is dead.

A Most Curious Christmas

Christmas in Blackheath has never been bloodier…

May Morrigan was hoping for mulled wine and minimal drama this festive season. But when your eccentric mother asks you to hide a bloody knife, your estranged twin sister moves in, and your housemate is staging a chaotic pantomime starring a washed-up TV actor with a stalker… a quiet Christmas is off the cards.
