The phones are out.
The roads have flooded.
There's no way in or out.
And the murders have begun.

Ursula Smart and her mother are invited to a supper club at Greystone Castle on the edge of a picturesque Dartmoor village, along with their ever-adventurous book group.

But as the dinner party begins, their hosts Lord and Lady Black begin to reveal festering resentments. Lord Black, who actually bought his title, looks like he's having an affair with the maid.

Then as midnight strikes, someone is found brutally murdered and the Smart women find themselves investigating another perplexing crime.

On this dark and stormy night, with the castle cut off by flood waters, who will be the next to die?

AN IMPOSSIBLE LOCKED-ROOM MURDER MYSTERY WITH A TOUCH OF DARK HUMOUR.

PRAISE FOR THE SUPPER CLUB MURDERS:

"Murders, laughs and a malevolent wig-stealing monkey - this book is a riot!" Nicola Gill, author of We Are Family

"I absolutely LOVED this book. The Supper Club Murders is another brilliantly original mystery, fizzing with atmosphere and intrigue. A perfect cocktail of devilish plot and ingenious characterisation, all laced with Dowd's unmistakable wit. Superb!" Philippa East, author of Little White Lies & Safe and Sound

â­â­â­â­â­ "They really are murder magnets these Smart women. Lies aren't worth it, they always come back and bite you. Loved it. Made me laugh and made me cry." Aileen G.

â­â­â­â­â­ "A crazy humorous murder mystery. Certainly something different. I thought it wonderfully written, very imaginative and creative . . . it's like combining modern-day trauma with gothic tragedy. I am looking forward to reading more adventures from the Smart women." Carol S.

â­â­â­â­â­ "Perfect book for a rainy day. This is a great mystery . . . I loved all the characters and I really loves the mystery element as well." Lynn B.

â­â­â­â­â­ "I really enjoyed The Supper Club Murders by Victoria Dowd. The story unfolds like a Clue/Whodunnit type of story. I was drawn in right away with the descriptive narrations. The author has quite a way with writing her characters so you like the ones she intends you to but also makes you dislike others! It had me interested until the very end and I couldn't wait to read how this mystery concluded! Definitely one I'd recommend!" Kristen K.

â­â­â­â­ "I really like this series and in my opinion, this is the beat book so far. We get a murder mystery with a little bit of humour thrown in. There's plenty of twists and clues in this in this well-written story . . . it's also multi-layered and atmospheric. The characters are well-developed and a mixed bunch." Louise W.
