If you have a Death In Paradise-shaped hole in your life, then fret not because a new cosy crime series is coming to our screens this year. Robert Thorogood, creator of Death In Paradise and author of The Marlow Murder Club, is adapting his 2021 novel for television in a two-part series for UKTV.

Speaking about the series, Thorogood said: “After over a decade of working on Death In Paradise, I’m thrilled to be creating a brand new murder mystery series for TV… I can’t wait for audiences to join Judith, Becks and Suzie on their adventures as they solve a series of fiendishly puzzling murders.”

So, here’s everything to know so far about The Marlow Murder Club, including first look images at the upcoming drama.

**What is the plot of The Marlow Murder Club?**

Judith Potts, a 77-year-old retired archaeologist, lives alone in the quiet town of Marlow, keeping herself busy with crosswords, where nobody tells her what to do or how to live her life. During one of her wild swims in the Thames, Judith hears a gunshot coming from a neighbour’s garden and believes a murder has taken place.

But when she goes to the police, they don’t believe her story. So Judith finds herself forming an unlikely friendship with local dog-walker Suzie and the vicar’s wife, Becks, to investigate the murder on their own. Together, they are the Marlow Murder Club.
