Welcome to the inaugural round of Read Mystery With Me! Every other month throughout the year, I’ll be picking a mystery novel to read. Each day during that month (until we reach the end of the novel) I’ll read a chapter or two and post my thoughts about what I’ve read. Read along with me and join the discussion using the subscribe button below!

This Month’s Pick
Murder At The Mill by M.B. Shaw
Back Cover Summary
A picture hides a thousand lies . . . And only Iris Grey can uncover the truth.
Iris Grey arrives at Mill Cottage in a picture-perfect Hampshire village, looking to escape from her crumbling marriage. She is drawn to the neighbouring Wetherby family, and is commissioned to paint a portrait of Dominic Wetherby, a celebrated crime writer.
At the Wetherby's Christmas Eve party, the mulled wine is in full flow - but so too are tensions and rivalries among the guests. On Christmas Day, the youngest member of the Wetherby family, Lorcan, finds a body in the water. A tragic accident? Or a deadly crime?
With the snow falling, Iris enters a world of village gossip, romantic intrigue, buried secrets and murder.
