#3 Death at Tower Bridge

Fresh from solving not one but two murders at London landmarks, tour guide Diana Bakewell is apprehensive when a typo forces her to take two groups on two very different tours. The first group are bridge afficionados, in London to cram in as many bridges as they can cross in Chartwell and Crouch’s vintage Routemaster bus. The second is a group of Bridget Jones fans keen to explore the locations from the book and films. But then as they’re crossing the iconic Tower Bridge, a mysterious death plunges both groups into chaos. How did the victim get onto the top deck of the bus?

#4 Death on the Thames

Diana Bakewell and Zaf Williams are cementing their reputations as London’s best tour guides. They’ve also learned that they’re not bad at solving mysteries.
But when Kamran Dadashov, the father of Zaf’s new boyfriend, hires them for a tour, they know they need to pull out all the stops.
The group consists of three wealthy men, old friends and occasional rivals. They aren’t just seeing London’s there’s a challenge, involving a race, postcards, and an egg sandwich. But when they begin their tour on the London Eye, Diana looks down to see a man fall from a boat belonging to one of the group.
The police arrive and can’t find a body.

#5 Death at St Paul’s Cathedral

Fresh from solving a spate of murder mysteries, Diana Bakewell and Zaf Williams are separated when Zaf goes on a course to gain his qualification as a tour guide. The course is at London’s iconic St Paul’s Cathedral, which Zaf is expected to get to know so he can be tested on his tour guide abilities. Meanwhile, Diana is forced from her wonderful London home by her unscrupulous landlord.
But all this has to be put aside when a resident at a local hostel is found dead, apparently poisoned. More perplexing is the fact that, after a police investigation, Diana realises she saw the victim walking around hours after he had supposedly died.

#6 Death at Abbey Road

Abbey Road. Site of the iconic studio where The Beatles recorded, plus THAT zebra crossing. Without access to their beloved Routemaster buses, Diana and Zaf are hopeful that they can attract business to Chartwell and Crouch tours by hosting tours of the studio. And Diana has the connections to make it happen…
But then on a tour of the studio, they hear disturbing noises from a recording booth. And moments later, an old friend of Diana’s is found dead.
