Book Club: Death At The Bar by Ngaio Marsh

This is the Shedunnit Book Club companion episode for March 2021, in which we are reading Death at the Bar by Ngaio Marsh. There is a non-spoilery plot summary included (ie no major clues or twists), but you’ve been warned! I’ll see you in the Shedunnit forum for our fully spoilered discussion thread on 31 March.

Further listening/reading for this month:
— The Secret Life of Ngaio Marsh episode of the main podcast
— The primer episode about Ngaio Marsh’s The Nursing Home Murder

Sign up via email to be alerted when the watching party is about to start — it’s happening on Sunday 28th March at 5pm GMT. We will be watching “Rumpole and the Confession of Guilt”, the 1975 adaptation that was made as part of the Play for Today series.

In April we are reading Smallbone Deceased by Michael Gilbert and in May we are reading Death Comes As The End by Agatha Christie.
