Could we have a subforum for “Marble Hall Murders” like we have for “Moonflower Murders” under the “Magpie Murders” forum?

Shooting begins next month, no idea how long editing takes before we get to see this.

Since Magpie was Fall 2022 and Moonflower was Fall 2024…maybe Fall 2026?

The Marble Hall Murders novel will be released on May 13, 2025.

Murder links past and present once again in this mind-boggling metafictional mystery from Anthony Horowitz featuring detective Atticus Pünd and editor Susan Ryeland, stars of the New York Times bestsellers Magpie Murders and Moonflower Murders.

Editor Susan Ryeland has left her Greek island, her hotel and her Greek boyfriend, Andreas, in search of a new life back in England.

Freelancing for a London publisher, she's given the last job she wants: working on an Atticus Pünd continuation novel called Pünd’s Last Case. Worse still, she knows the new writer. Eliot Crace is the troubled grandson of legendary children’s author Miriam Crace who died twenty years ago. Eliot is convinced she was murdered—by poison.

To her surprise, Susan enjoys reading the manuscript which is set in the South of France and revolves around the mysterious death of Lady Margaret Chalfont, days before she was about to change her will. But when it is revealed that Lady Margaret was also poisoned, alarm bells begin to ring.

The more Susan reads, the clearer it becomes that Eliot has deliberately concealed clues about his grandmother’s death inside the book.

Desperately, Susan tries to prevent Eliot from putting himself in harm’s way—but his behaviour is becoming increasingly erratic. Another murder follows . . . and suddenly Susan finds herself to be the number one suspect. 

Once again, the real and the fictional worlds have become dangerously entangled. And if Susan doesn't solve the mystery of Pünd’s Last Case, she could well be its next victim.

Anthony Horowitz who wrote Magpie Murders, Moonflower Murders, and the upcoming Marble Hall Murders, has also written the screenplay for "Nine Bodies in a Mexican Morgue", a 6 episode Drama TV Series airing on March 2, 2025 on MGM+ at 9pm.

The show's forum can be found here:

The series follows the tale of nine strangers who find themselves lost in a remote Mexican jungle after their small plane travelling from Guatemala to the U.S. crashes. One by one, the survivors are murdered, leaving the remaining passengers to solve the terrifying mystery before they too fall victim to the killer.

I really enjoyed Magpie Murders.  I wanted to watch Moonflower Murders but my system decided to only tape about every other episode, starting with 2, so makes it a little harder to follow.  I don't have Passport and don't want to pay for yet another streaming service, so I'm hoping it comes back around and my system cooperates and I get them all.  Maybe they'll have a catch-up before the new show.  (My stupid DVR did the same thing with the Murder Club series.  I think it's hates PBS and wants me to only watch low-brow tv.)

All you need is to be a member of any PBS station. It's not expensive.

I don’t consider Passport a regular streamer. It’s a perk of supporting PBS…
