September Book Club: We Solve Murders by Richard Osman
Wednesday, 23 September 2026
6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Aurelia Books, 109 Willis Street, Te Aro, Wellington
Welcome to the Aurelia Books book club!
Steve Wheeler is enjoying retired life. He still does the odd bit of investigation work, but he prefers the pub quiz and afternoons at home with his cat Trouble. His days of adventure are over – that's his daughter-in-law Amy's business now.
Amy Wheeler thinks adrenaline is good for the soul, which makes being a private security officer to billionaires the perfect job. She's currently on a remote island keeping world-famous author Rosie D'Antonio alive. Then a dead body, a bag of money, and a killer with their sights on Amy have her sending Steve an SOS...
As a breakneck race around the world begins, can they stay one step ahead of a deadly enemy?
Your ticket includes a drink and snacks to go along with our chats!
