With dog-walker Suzie and vicar's wife Becks, her trio returns in Death Comes to Marlow, where a society wedding ends in tragedy, and The Queen of Poisons, where Marlow's mayor is poisoned at a council meeting. These three novels form the Marlow Murder Club series, basis for the TV adaptation starring Samantha Bond..
