The Losers Club Collection 2 : Losers Club Murder Mystery Books 4-6
Digital box set of books four, five and six from the Losers Club murder mystery series.
Sleighed! – Book 4
Slàinte! A Christmas Eve party at snow-covered Vik castle, where the Christmas Star diamond is on display. Good food, dancing and a visit from Santa. What could possibly go wrong?
When Santa appears down the chimney, looking far more crispy than expected, it is clear that something has gone very wrong. With the castle cut off from help, a murderer in their midst and the Christmas Star stolen, it’s up to Losers Club to investigate. As they follow the network of secret passages to learn more about their fellow guests, they realise that everyone has a motive. Including one of their own.
The Juniper Key – Book 5
Vik Island weight-loss group, Losers Club, is on the mainland for the Police Scotland Bravery Awards and, even better, they’re staying in a posh hotel. With housekeeping trollies full of free stuff just lying about the place, waiting for the unwary pilferer, Mrs Hubbard’s only regret is that she didn’t bring a bigger handbag.
Diet sheets have been abandoned and Gordon’s dungarees are straining at the seams, so what could be nicer than a gentle stroll up Bennachie to offset all those breakfast sausages? Anything. Anything could be nicer because this is no gentle stroll.
When the Losers stumble upon the body of a young woman on the hillside, they quickly become entangled in a web of deceit surrounding local road protestors. The very police officers awarding them for bravery seem determined to write off the death as a drug overdose, and it is up to Losers Club to convince them otherwise.
Soon, the hunt is on for an elusive whistleblower, and the Losers find themselves pitted against the establishment. As the conspiracy deepens and the bodies start piling up, they realise that they can trust no one.
Beacon Brodie – Book 6
Fit a sotter! The Major Investigations Team is on the island and Sergeant Wilson is a woman on a mission. She must solve the murder of the lighthouse keeper before the MIT eat all the good police biscuits. The DCI might have ordered her to do door-to-door enquiries, but she was la-la-la-not-listening at the time. Convinced that the answer lies in Beacon Brodie’s mysterious past, she has instead conscripted the best of the Losers Club minions to discover the truth.
In the meantime, Gordon and Jim (the Z team) are relegated to discovering the identity of the Vik Vigilante, a shadowy figure exacting revenge on the citizens of Vik. Why did a celebrity appear naked behind an ornamental magnolia in the garden centre? Who forced a journalist to eat his own words? And…gasp…could the vigilante be the killer?
As the Losers Club friends uncover a midden of lies and deceit, they realise that something far more sinister is at play, and sometimes the truth is best left buried.

About the author
Yvonne Vincent
38 books81 followersAs a child, I loved reading. I spent my life with my nose in a book and, when finally forced back into the real world, I wrote poetry and stories. My hero was Pam Ayres and all I wanted to be when I grew up was a librarian, so that I could be around books all the time.
Of course, life takes you on different paths. Somehow, writing poems and stories got lost along the way. I was too busy partying in London through my twenties then being a mum through my thirties and forties. But on an August morning in 2018, at the tender age of forty-eight, I decided to create a blog on Facebook. Ten minutes later, Growing Old Disgracefully was born and the love of writing came flooding back. Encouraged by my lovely readers, I finally got off my lazy behind, put fingers to keyboard and wrote my first book, The Big Blue Jobbie, then another, and another.
Once more, I have a head full of stories and I can’t wait to tell them to you.

Murder and laughter.
This is book six in the series. I have binge read the rest in three days they are so funny. Set in an island in Scotland around
a slimming club, unlikely in itself, the participants become involved in solving murders. The dialogue between the members is at times laugh aloud and completely irreverent. I loved them. Even the murders are different .
I recommend them to anyone who has a sense of humour and enjoys reading something very different from a 'normal ' murder mystery.

Bloody brilliant!
All three books were addictive, fun and well written..I've often thought I knew the answer to the mysteries, then something happens and I'm proved wrong each time! I absolutely adore these characters and I would love for The Losers Club to become a series to watch on tv. Wouldn't that be something?! Being able to explore each character even more with every episode? I would love it, I'm sure there are plenty out there who agree. Thanks again Yvonne, you are brilliant! 5*

Really enjoyed them.
Three fabulous books that have you hooked from the start. Lots of plot twists and great side stories about the characters. I really enjoyed each book but be warned once you start reading them they are hard to put down!

Great stories
This set was impossible to put down. Every story has so much in it besides the main characters of the series.

a quirky
Always a fun romp with the amateur detectives of the Loser’s Club. A quirky ensemble cast led by Penny Moon solves murders on a tiny Scottish Island.
