Today I am reviewing the 1964 movie Murder Ahoy. This is the 4th to feature Margaret Rutherford as Agatha Christie's famed lady detective Miss Jane Marple. and in my honest opinion it's the worst of the four. Margaret is great as Miss Marple, but the scriptwriter and director veered too farm from the original spirit of the character. They made her a chemist as well as a sleuth when she figures out what poison was used to kill the first victim.  to find links to how to support the show or to find past episodes of The Cozy Sleuth please go to our website www.thecozysleuth.com

A friend of mine asked if I wanted to watch The Hardy Boys with her on Hulu. At first I was a little hesitant. But I accepted thinking that even if it was a waist of time at least I'd have some fodder for the show. It was not a waist of time. Secret societies, mystical artifacts, a creepy white haired dude. Not to mention brotherly jibes and great one-liners all wrapped in eighties nostalgia. With a PG rating this show is great for the whole family.

A review of the debut novel for author Hannah Kurz. Stephanie Wu is drawn into a thrilling mystery when the owner of The Likable Daisy Bakery is found dead from an apparent accident. But the way he was dressed and where his body was found all come together to add up to a different story. Could Sameed have been murdered? On top of everything else Samantha is a new mother, just starting to adjust to the changes in her life. Even though the book is set in bustling New York city Hannah still manages to create that wonderfully small sense of community that readers come to expect in a cozy mystery.

Today I'm reviewing a short story by Author DA Kelly called The Jig's Back door. The story is full of humor, adventure and magic, featuring two goblin brothers and a very snarky map as they seek a magical stone. From line one you can guess that the adventure didn't go exactly as planned. The Jig's Back Door is not my usual cozy mystery review, but it's well worth the read and left me excited for DA Kelly's debut novel Brooms Away.  To get your free copy of this terrific short story join DA Kelly's newsletter and stay up to date on her writing journey at: https://dl.bookfunnel.com/4yksc8hzr0 I want to thank my patron Regina for becoming A Guiding Clue and helping us meet our goals to stay commercial-free and growing.

Today Snoops and Sleuths I'm reviewing the 1963 movie Murder at the Gallop starring Margret Rutherford as Christie's famous detective Miss Marple. This is the second Marple movie to star Rutherford in the title role and ironically she was hesitant to play a character so involved with murder and Christie thought Rutherford was wrong for the role physically. At least that's what I heard on TCM. Anyway, this is one of my favorite Marple mysteries and I hope you'll take the time to enjoy it.  I'd like to thank my Guiding Clue Patron Regina for helping to keep our show commercial-free.

Our favorite detectives jobs are as varied as our own. It's one of the things that makes  the cozy such an interesting genre. No matter what, you can find a job or hobby that you as the read can relate to. 

This is the first audio book I've experiences (well other than The Hobbit, but I cant review that here.) and I can definitely see the appeal. Pains and Penalties is the first in the Geeks and Things series and it's such a fun experience.

Today I ask the question of why are Mysteries so popular? To join in the discussion follow me on twitter  https://twitter.com/inkwielder  and click on the show's icon. I look forward to reading your answers. :D

A show on the Ovation Channel this mystery was a new one for me. set in the 1930's with a pair of lady private detectives. 

My thoughts on this overlooked sub-set of cozy mysteries. With special mention of my favorite book. The Circular Staircase by Mary Roberts Rinehart.    

The Circular Staircase is considered the first in the Had-I-but-known school of thought in detective fiction. And what's that mean? Well you'll have to wait for future episodes to find out. The book was written by Mary Roberts Rinehart and published in 1908. Mary Roberts was considered America's Agatha Christie. 

Of the hundreds of cozies on shelves there's only a handful with men as the protagonist. Why is this? 

A review of the computer game Emerald City Confidential available on Amazon.com 

 She was the main character of 9 Warner Brothers films from the 1930's and always got the upper hand on her detective boyfriend. She was a fast talking, quick witted, and strong willed role model for many a young woman in Pre-World War II.
