What The Critics Said

'Many characters have motive but the final denouement has to await the final pages, providing a tidy and satisfactory end to all aspects of this complex plot… It is well-written, amusing, genteel and sedate – a pleasant antidote to the violence and aggression of some of the more modern crime fiction.'

Crime Review

'Set in the early 1950’s, this is a delightful romp, as Rosy is pulled from her quiet ordered existence into the murky
world it appeared that her aunt had inhabited. A further death has everyone twitchy and looking over their shoulder’s, particularly those who have been indulging in a little wickedness! Highly recommended.'

Mystery People

'For classic crime enthusiasts, A Little Murder ticks all the right boxes...a delightful mix of mystery and nostalgia, just perfect for the deckchair.'

Daily Mail

'A perfect mixture of funny and acerbic, with a cast of colourful characters and a school of well-deployed red herrings, A Little Murder is wholly delightful.'

Laura Wilson

'Wittily written, tightly plotted and fun to read. It introduces a sparkling gallery of characters and perfectly captures the drab sleaziness of London in the early 1950s.'

Simon Brett

‘As with her earlier books, I love Suzette Hill’s elegance as a writer and wonderful sense of the ridiculous.’
