VICTORIA DOWD PUZZLY BOOK OF THE MONTH

In search of a good crime novel? We are thrilled that our own Victoria Dowd’s The Smart Woman’s Guide to Murder was the July recipient for Puzzly Book of the Month at In Search of the Classic Mystery Novel! We were thrilled to see Victoria’s book nab the top spot and read all the lovely things they had today:

[The Puzzly’s] going to Victoria Dowd’s crime fiction debut, The Smart Woman’s Guide To Murder which fans of well-plotted, fairly clued crime fiction really should make time for. A book that really needs to be better known, written by someone with a clear love for the genre, with some really clever uses of the traditional tropes while still written for the modern crime fiction readers as well. A great book and a deserved winner.

Congratulations, Victoria! You can read all about the full list of contenders at the ISOTCMN website.

The Smart Woman’s Guide to Murder will be joined by its sequel, The Smart Woman’s Guide to Survival, in early 2021. In the meantime, The Smart Woman’s Guide to Murder is available now on Amazon.
