Want a bit of escapist froth? This runaway best-seller might fill the bill. Set in a retirement community next to an abandoned Convent and its tranquil cemetery, the club's members scorn bookgroups, French conversation or jigsaws but pass the time solving long-forgotten murders. Suddenly, their quietude is shattered by not one but two real murders. Undaunted, inspired they set out to discover who, why, what and when? It's silly, unpretentious fun. Book two is promised later this year.
