  • Murder in the Lakes by Rachel Amphlett

    Murder in the Lakes by Rachel Amphlett

    🏞️ MURDER IN THE LAKES by RACHEL AMPHLETT 🏞️ A fun, fast-paced cosy mystery set in the Lake District. I enjoyed following fledgling PI Melody Harper as she juggled a hen party, a murder, and a missing bride-to-be. It’s a solid and engaging read, though I knocked off a star because the blurb gave away too much too soon. Still, I’d happily return for Melody’s next case! #RachelAmphlett #MurderInTheLakes #SaxonPublishing #ZooloosBookTours 👩🏻‍💻 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (MoMoBookDiary 2025)
