#1 New York Times bestselling author Richard Osman’s globe-trotting series “We Solve Murders” returns with the thrilling new mystery, We Chase Shadows.

Back together.
Back on the case.
And back to solving murders . . .

At sunrise, high in the Italian hills, a body is found on the steps of a beautiful private villa. On the body is a threatening note, signed by a mystery man.


Back at We Solve Murders HQ, Amy, Rosie, and Steve leap at the chance to take on their first proper case. So what if their new client seems to have his own reasons for avoiding the police? All they need to do is uncover who left the note, and then find them. Simple.

But once they start digging, the suspects keep piling up: there’s Sweden’s most-wanted criminal, a canny ex-wife and a fierce business rival – yet the murderer keeps evading them. And as the trio chase a villain through the shadows, danger travels closer to home . . .

Between Italy and Palm Springs, via Barcelona and Steve’s village pub, can the team catch an elusive killer who knows EXACTLY where to hide?

A witty and well-crafted follow-up to We Solve Murders that will leave fans immensely satisfied — then immediately craving more. This time spanning Palm Springs, Tuscany, Malaga and Stockholm, the settings and characters are all richly developed as Rosie, Amy and Steve try to chase a shadowy figure around the globe at the behest of their new client. Many laugh-out-loud moments, lots of intrigue. Osman’s ability to combine clever cosy mystery with a fantastic sense of humour always leaves me marvelling.

As expected from Richard Osman. The book took you on twists and turns, with a totally unexpected ending.

It is much better than the first book, We Solve Murders.
