__________
89-year-old Margaret has lived on Garnon Crescent all her life, except for those few years she never talks about. She knows all the neighbours; their hopes, their heartbreaks.
Only recently, Margaret's memory isn't what it used to be. She is sure Barbara, her best friend and neighbour, told her something important. Something she was supposed to remember.
When Barbara is found dead, Margaret determines to recover her missing memory. She and her grandson James begin to investigate, but soon strange incidents occur in her home. Margaret's daughter thinks her memory is getting worse, but Margaret knows somebody wants her out of the way.
Because Margaret holds the key to solving this crime. If only she could remember where she put it.©2025 Richard Hooton
Reseñas de la crítica
One of the best books I've read this year. It has so much to say about memory loss and the terrors of having to leave one's own home. I very much hope to meet Margaret and James again! (ALEX GRAY, author of the DSI William Lorimer series)
Humorous and heartbreaking. This is a cleverly crafted mystery with an amateur detective duo you root for even against the odds. Absorbing and heartwarming, the characters are so well drawn I felt they could be my own neighbours! This is a confident and empathetic debut. I couldn't stop turning the page! (EMILY CRITCHLEY, author of ONE PUZZLING AFTERNOON)
I read this one late into the night, unable to wait to find out what happens next. Skilfully written . . . the characters are expertly drawn. A gentle crime novel, and so much more. (BONNIE MEEKUMS, author of A KIND OF FAMILY)
If you're looking for an uplifting crime novel that merges Elizabeth Is Missing with Three Things about Elsie, I highly recommend you preorder The Margaret Code. It tells the story of Margaret, whose investigation into the murder of her neighbour Barbara is complicated by her Alzheimer's, and her grandson James, who is determined to help her solve the case. Wry, compelling, and ever so poignant, it's a wonderful mystery as well as a touching portrayal of the challenges in both ageing and caring for the ageing. . (NAOMI KELSEY, author of THE BURNINGS)
Delightfully cosy
This beautifully crafted whodunit not only delivers intrigue but also explores the heartbreak of ageing, the loneliness it can bring, and society's tendency to overlook older generations. With its unconventional yet endearing detectives, this is a mystery that will have you rooting for Margaret and James until the very end. A brilliant debut.
