About this listen

The perfect summer listen, full of charm and heart, written in the vein of The Thursday Murder Club or Only Murders in the Building but with a southern California twist.

Mrs. B, the landlady of The Marigold Cottages is a stubborn idealist who only rents to people she cares about: Sophie, an anxious young playwright with a dark past; Hamilton, an agoraphobe who likes to overshare; Ocean, a queer sculptor raising two kids alone; the perfectionist Lily-Ann; and Nicholas, a finance bro who’s hiding secrets.

The tenants live contentedly in their doll-house bungalows in Santa Barbara, just minutes from the beach, until their peace is shattered when Anthony, a quiet, hulking, but potentially violent ex-con moves in. Three weeks later, a dead body is discovered on the streets of the peaceful neighborhood. Anthony is arrested, and the tenants heave sighs of relief. Until Mrs. B, convinced that he's innocent, marches down to the police station and confesses to the crime herself. The tenants band together and form “The Marigold Cottages Murder Collective” to save their beloved landlady. As clues are unearthed and secrets are revealed, the community of misfits only grows more tight-knit...until a second body is found. Full of eccentricity, humor, community, The Marigold Cottages Murder Collective will keep you hooked until the last moment.

Critic reviews

"The residents of Marigold Court have one, small problem—a dead body was found in a hedge and one of the residents is accused of killing him. Nothing brings a disparate group of people together like a murder! They decide to unite to solve the case and hopefully save the property from the shady land developer who wants to tear down their community. Not in their backyard! By turns funny, smart, and cozy, fans of Agatha Christie and Kat Ailes will whip through this one."—Catherine Mack, USA Today bestselling author of Every Time I Go on Vacation Someone Dies

"Superlatives can’t do this delightful novel justice. Simply put, it’s the most charming, heartfelt, and funniest mystery I’ve ever read. Readers of Richard Osman rejoice—your new obsession has arrived! If I could live in the witty, just, and sundrenched world Jo Nichols has created, I wouldn’t hesitate to call the movers tomorrow."—Katy Hays, New York Times bestselling author of The Cloisters
