About this series
When Ruth Finlay accompanies her neighbour Doris Cleaver and the Mahjong club on a long weekend in the picturesque town of Bright, she’s hoping for a relaxing time researching the town for a feature article. Instead, the death of one of the tour party catapults her into an investigation she could surely do without.
Who killed Burt Braithwaite and why? Surely not one of the ladies of the Mahjong club? With too many suspects, only one small clue and few leads to follow up on, Ruth grows desperate to find answers. Her desperation grows as she finds herself under suspicion for the murder.
When Ruth discovers that a second death connected to the holiday home took place five years before, she is determined to discover a link. And to make things even more complicated, her neighbour and sidekick Doris disappears at the local farmer’s market.
A delightful Australian cozy mystery filled with quirky characters and unexpected twists, TOO BRIGHT FOR MURDER is the second book in Isobel Blackthorn's Ruth Finlay Mysteries.
