The Bluebeard Club
(2021)(The sixth book in the Lord Kit Aston Mystery series)
A novel by Jack Murray
A Riviera crime novel the way you want it to be!
The newly married Kit Aston and Mary are back in their latest crime caper that takes you from a stag weekend in Scotland to the set of Alfred Hitchcock’s latest film and onto the gaming tables of Monte Carlo.
When Kit and Mary join Agatha in Monte Carlo, they are shocked to discover that Prince Albert I has asked her to investigate unusual gambling activities in the casino. This becomes a murder investigation when Kit’s Uncle Alastair is accused of being a killer. The finger of blame points towards the mysterious Bluebeard Club. Can Kit with the help of Mary, Agatha, and Scotland Yard artist, Rufus Watts, prove Alastair’s innocence? Madame Guillotine awaits if they fail...and a Dobermann called Mimi.
The latest Kit Aston mystery is the usual mix of real-life historical characters, hilarious one liners and murder.
What reviewers are saying about Jack Murray’s Kit Aston series:
“I laughed out loud…”
“The characters were engaging, and the plots well thought out and convoluted enough to keep you guessing until the last.”
“…well written with very appealing characters, good plots and just a nice touch of romance. Very little overt violence and no sex.”
“You don't want to leave them. The history in each book is fascinating, you feel as if you are there.”
Find out for yourself: ‘The Bluebeard Club’ can be read as a standalone novel. Alternatively, why not start at the beginning with ‘The Affair of the Christmas Card Killer’. This is Golden Age crime with a twist of PG Wodehouse and Agatha Christie.
Genre: Historical Mystery
