Let’s solve (fictional) crimes together! From globe-trotting mysteries to the secrets buried in the backyard, detective fiction enables readers to step into the role of the investigator and solve elaborate and entertaining mysteries. In this detective fiction book club, we will practice expanding the canon from Poirot and Sherlock Holmes by reading new contemporary detective fiction that experiment with the form and offer perspectives from across the world.
