I Died at Fallow Hall
by Bonnie Burke-Patel
☆ Shortlisted for the 2025 CWA KAA Gold Dagger
I Died at Fallow Hall by Bonnie Burke-Patel takes place in a typical English country mystery setting, with a cottage, a cute local village, and a big house where the local lord lives. In tone, however, the book is not light, but quite melancholic—lots of the characters are lonely—or at least reflective. It's a dual timeline story with the action taking place both in the present and in 1967.

Our definition of mystery is broad, and can include any novel that has a crime at its heart with (ideally) an unexpected plot twist. Throughout the year, we’ll be looking out for new mystery books as they’re published and adding them whenever we think they’re worth reading.
