Described as \u2018More Marx Brothers than Agatha Christie, this is crime fiction turned on its head\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Plot<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Brighton, 1957.&nbsp;Inspector Steine rather enjoys his life as a policeman by the sea. No criminals, no crime, no stress. So it\u2019s really rather annoying when an ambitious \u2013 not to mention irritating \u2013 new constable shows up to work and starts investigating a series of burglaries. And it\u2019s even more annoying when, after Constable Twitten is despatched to the theatre for the night, he sits next to a vicious theatre critic who is promptly shot dead part way through the opening night of a new play. It seems Brighton may be in need of a police force after all\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/Shot-Dark-Constable-Twitten-Inspector\/dp\/1408890526?&amp;linkCode=li3&amp;tag=invittoevent-21&amp;linkId=f589daa24f889b7a9724b6276b714261&amp;language=en_GB&amp;ref_=as_li_ss_il\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ws-eu.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;ASIN=1408890526&amp;Format=_SL250_&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;MarketPlace=GB&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;WS=1&amp;tag=invittoevent-21&amp;language=en_GB\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Available from&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/uk.bookshop.org\/a\/3668\/9781526666963\">City Adventurers Solve The Murder book Shop<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3LgDBfn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The City Adventurers love reading about mystery, so we\u2019ve started our own book club.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mailchi.mp\/b76ee331c544\/qeywp1mv7d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Join the Solve The Murder Book Club<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Solve The Murder Book Club are reading A Shot in The Dark by Lynne Truss for October&hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/itmgames.co.uk\/blog\/?p=2810\">More <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">What is currently being read in the Solve the Murder Book\u00a0Club?<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2286,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[52,225],"tags":[659,658,637,484,660,51,641],"class_list":["post-2810","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-murder-mystery-books","category-mystery-books","tag-a-constable-twitten-mystery","tag-a-shot-in-the-dark","tag-book-club","tag-city-adventurers-solve-the-murder","tag-lynne-truss","tag-murder-mystery","tag-solve-the-murder-book-club"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>What is currently being read in the Solve the Murder Book\u00a0Club? - Solve The Murder<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"This month we are reading A Shot in The Dark by Lynne Truss.
