Summary

FROM THE #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE THURSDAY MURDER CLUB

A cunning killer. A race around the world.
An iconic new detective team is born.

Solving murders. It's a family business.

Steve Wheeler is enjoying retired life. He still does the odd bit of investigation work, but he prefers the pub quiz and afternoons at home with his cat Trouble. His days of adventure are over – that’s his daughter-in-law Amy’s business now.

Amy Wheeler thinks adrenaline is good for the soul, which makes being a private security officer to billionaires the perfect job. She’s currently on a remote island keeping world-famous author Rosie D’Antonio alive. Then a dead body, a bag of money and a killer with their sights on Amy have her sending Steve an SOS...

As a breakneck race around the world begins, can they stay one step ahead of a deadly enemy?

'The thing that shines through in Osman’s writing is that he really likes people and revels in all their foibles and eccentricities ... a delightful read' THE OBSERVER

'This is a sitcom-meets-Bond, and a fine murder mystery’ DAILY EXPRESS

'Much as with the earlier books, I read We Solve Murders in a few pleasured gulps' SUNDAY TIMES

Editorial Review

A retired detective, a kick-ass bodyguard, and a cat named Trouble
I always feel a dash of anxiety when one of my favourite authors kicks off something totally new, but the fantastic new series starter from Richard Osman does not disappoint. There are some familiar tropes at play: retiree Steve Wheeler dabbling in investigatory work, a diverse cast of characters who come together over pints and trivia. But he ups the ante with Steve's daughter-in-law Amy, a truly hardcore veteran-turned-bodyguard who works for an elite protection contractor. And the murders these two find themselves needing to solve are epic and global in scale. In true Osman form, the dialogue is punchy, fast-paced and smart, making this listen completely impossible to put down thanks to Nicola Walker's adroit and vibrant narration. — Emily C., Audible Editor

Skilled narration brought all the characters in this whodunnit to life, the twist and turns kept me guessing and the humor was a dry as a packet of pork scratchings. It was perfect. 10/10

Fantastic follow up to TTMC!

Great characters and storyline. A laugh out loud romp. Sorry to put the pressure on however I really want to read the next ‘We Solve Murders’ book.
I didn’t think you would be able to top ‘The Murder Club’ yet you have.
Congratulations Richard Osman

Loved this book

It took me a bit to get into the story and understand the characters but once I was on the story train, I was hooked! I've been listening, laughing out loud, and sitting on the edge of my seat non stop since it arrived in my Library. I can't wait to listen again to catch all the tidbits hidden in the story I would have missed the first time. The narration was also great. I have to say it was different from the Thursday Murder Club, but that was a nice surprise and this book was a bit more gritty and action-packed but still kept to the heart of the story and the characters. Richard Osman has done a great job with high expectations. 5 stars.

Funny, sweet and nail biting - Osman shows his talents and range in storytelling

Just similar enough to Osman's other books to be recognisable, but different enough to feel fresh.

great characters.
