Book Review: A Body at the Grand Hotel by Benedict Brown 📚
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
I just finished A Body at the Grand Hotel, and I can't help but share my thoughts on this delightful cozy mystery! Right from the start, I was drawn into the intriguing world of Marius Quin, a mystery novelist turned private detective. When he receives an invitation from the enigmatic Mrs. Thistlethwaite to speak at a gala dinner in Torquay, I could feel his excitement for a weekend getaway on the stunning English Riviera—who wouldn’t want that? 🌊✨
Marius arrives at the Grand Hotel with his charming partner, Lady Bella Montague, but soon realizes that not everything is as glamorous as it seems. Mrs. Thistlethwaite quickly turns Marius's evening into a disaster, which left me scratching my head about her true motives for inviting him. Just when I thought things couldn’t get worse, Marius stumbles upon a body in the swimming pool—yes, you read that right! The victim is none other than the irritable host herself. 🏨🔍
What follows is a whirlwind of mystery as Marius and Bella navigate a series of red herrings and uncooperative witnesses. The duo faces a skeptical police sergeant and what feels like a conspiracy brewing in their midst. The way the clues come together—or fall apart—kept me turning pages faster than I anticipated. The writing is sharp and witty, reminiscent of classic whodunits, and the settings are so vividly described that I felt like I was strolling through the opulent hotel alongside them. 📚🕵️♂️
What I really love about this series is how entertaining it is overall. The plot is well-crafted and intelligent, with twists that kept me guessing until the end. The characters are wonderfully developed, making me genuinely care about them. Plus, the historical backdrop adds an extra layer of charm that fans of Agatha Christie and similar authors will absolutely adore. 🎭❤️
I’m already looking forward to the next installment! If you're in the mood for a cozy mystery that combines great writing, fabulous settings, and clever characterization, then A Body at the Grand Hotel should be on your reading list. Don’t miss out on this delightful adventure! 📖🌟
