GULF WEEKLY-
Mystery lovers who have enjoyed the worlds of Knives Out and The Thursday Murder Club are sure to enjoy an ‘enormously fun’ story about a woman who spends her entire life trying to prevent her foretold murder, only for her great-niece to have solve the crime sixty years after the prediction.
The book How to Solve Your Own Murder by Kristen Perrin is the first in the Castle Knoll Files series.
In 1965, Frances Adams is at an English country fair with her two best friends. But Frances’s night takes a hairpin turn when a fortune-teller makes a bone-chilling prediction: one day, Frances will be murdered.
Frances then spends a lifetime trying to solve a crime that hasn’t happened yet, compiling dirt on every person who crosses her path in an effort to prevent her own demise.
For decades, no one takes Frances seriously, until nearly sixty years later, when Frances is found murdered, like she always said she would be.
In the present day, Annie Adams has been summoned to a meeting at the sprawling country estate of her wealthy and reclusive great-aunt Frances.
But by the time Annie arrives in the quaint English village of Castle Knoll, Frances is already dead. and thanks to her lifelong habit of digging up secrets and lies, it seems every endearing villager might just have a motive for her murder.
The book is expected to be released towards the end of March in most online bookstores.
