The Kindness of Strangers
A wildly entertaining debut and homage to the classic murder mystery set in post-WWII London where a strangerâs arrival at a boarding house sets a deadly chain of events in motionâperfect for fans of Kate Atkinson, Agatha Christie, and Richard Osman.
London, 1953. Jimmy Sullivan lies dying on the drawing room floor while his housemates look on, their lives about to change forever.
One foggy night in the dead of February, a young man arrives unannounced at 42 Tregunter Road in Chelsea. Self-styled Bohemian Mrs. Honor Wilsonâwho runs a minor literary journal and lodgings from this timeworn Victorian houseâintroduces him to her âdear house guestsâ: Robbie, the writer; Mina, the teenage sleuth; George, the debutante; and Saul, the haunted refugee. Jimmy Sullivan is a family friend, Honor saysâyet clearly, something is not right. Despite everyoneâs misgivings, she lets the stranger move into the attic.
As they each try to disprove Jimmyâs dubious account of himself, secrets, jealousies, and disturbing schemes come to light, fracturing the householdâs delicate allegiances and setting in motion, unstoppably, a tale of perilous self-invention, complicated love, and murderous revenge.
In a house built on lies, the truth will get you killed.
