    About this series

    Diana Bakewell and Zaf Williams are cementing their reputations as London's best tour guides. They've also learned that they're not bad at solving mysteries. 

    But when Kamran Dadashov, the father of Zaf's new boyfriend, hires them for a tour, they know they need to pull out all the stops.

    The group consists of three wealthy men, old friends and occasional rivals. They aren't just seeing London's sights: there's a challenge, involving a race, postcards, and an egg sandwich. But when they begin their tour on the London Eye, Diana looks down to see a man fall from a boat belonging to one of the group.

    The police arrive and can't find a body. Diana is accused of fabricating the whole thing. But then when a body washes up further along the Thames, she knows she's got another murder on her hands.

    Can Diana and Zaf solve the mystery before the killer strikes again? And will Zaf be able to juggle his relationship and his work?

    Find out in Death on the Thames, the fourth book in the London Cosy Mysteries series. Perfect for fans of Richard Osman, Anthony Horowitz, and MC Beaton.

      Diana Bakewell is London’s savviest and best connected tour guide. As the lead guide at Chartwell and Crouch Tours, she’s busy teaching her young assistant Zaf the ropes alongside dealing with company politics and her slimy boss. In her spare time she’s helping Zaf find his feet in London and coming to terms with the fact that a tabby cat called Gus has stowed away on her vintage tour bus. But when Diana and Zaf take a group of students on a tour of the Houses of Parliament and an MP's researcher dies, Diana suspects all is not as it seems. The police are at a loss. They interview witnesses, including Diana’s tour group, but seem to be getting nowhere. Diana, however, was at the scene. She witnessed people’s reactions when the young woman died and knows that there’s a link between her group and the murder. Can Diana solve the crime and ensure justice is done, while keeping her tour group under control around London and protecting Chartwell and Crouch Tours’ reputation? Death in Westminster is the first part in a playful cozy mystery series set in a nostalgic version of London. Perfect for fans of Richard Osman, Anthony Horowitz and the Paddington books.

The second is a group of Bridget Jones fans keen to explore the locations from the book and films. But then as they’re crossing the iconic Tower Bridge, a mysterious death plunges both groups into chaos. How did the victim get onto the top deck of the bus? How did he die, and who killed him? Diana and her fellow tour guide Zaf must solve the mystery while juggling the needs of both groups and keeping the bus cat, Gus, from causing his own brand of chaos. Death at Tower Bridge is a hilarious cozy mystery perfect for fans of MC Beaton, Richard Osman and Anthony Horowitz.
