What Rhymes With Murder by Penny Tangey

What Rhymes with Murder? is a cosy crime novel with a very relatable twist - the amateur detective is an exhausted new mum trying to figure out her life after having a baby.

We really enjoyed this mystery, and the way it explored issues like adjusting to life after a baby, and brought back our memories of rhyme time and how hard it was to get out of the house!

The book blends humour, mystery and sharp observations about motherhood. Frida's journey of slowly rediscovering herself after becoming a parent adds a lovely emotional layer to the mystery. There’s also plenty of cosy crime fun: quirky characters, gossip sessions over coffee and the satisfaction of watching the clues slowly come together.
