About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Holmes, Margaret and Poe was a No.10 Sunday Times bestseller


A compulsive and entertaining contemporary mystery featuring a team of unique private investigators - perfect for fans of Richard Osman and Knives Out.

Brendan Holmes, Margaret Marple and August Poe run the most in-demand private investigation agency in New York City.

The three detectives make a formidable team, solving a series of seemingly impossible crimes which expose the dark underbelly of the city - from a priceless art theft, high-stakes kidnapping and a decades-old unsolved murder, to a gruesome subterranean prison and corruption and bribery at the highest levels of power.

But it's not long before their headline-grabbing breakthroughs, unconventional methods - and untraceable pasts - attract the attention of the NYPD and the FBI.

After all, it's no surprise that there's a mystery or two to unravel in the city that never sleeps . . . not least, who really are Holmes, Margaret and Poe?

Disjointed Storytelling.

I really did try to like this book. I persisted through the whole thing. Too many characters and not enough depth to them. Too many disjointed cases for a mystery novel. Could have have been good.

Interesting story and fun concept but lacks something.

Really enjoy the modern take on PI consulting defective aspect. Fun stories within stories. Each character has their own personality especially when told from that characters perspective the personality shows in the way the sentences change.

Also enjoy the layering of stories on top of each other but for a mystery novel it lacks the dangling of the carrot which Doyle expertly does through the use of the inspectors of Scotland Yard.

Yet there is something in the story which makes me hungry for more. I look forward to the next books
