Oscar Wilde and the Ring of Death
Oscar Wilde and the Ring of Death: Oscar Wilde Mystery: 2 | Gyles Brandreth
6 posts | 14 read | 3 to read
'I see murder in this unhappy hand...' When Mrs Robinson, palmist to the Prince of Wales, reads Oscar Wilde's palm she cannot know what she has predicted. Nor can Oscar know what he has set in motion when, that same evening, he proposes a game of 'Murder' in which each of his Sunday Supper Club guests must write down those whom they would like to kill. For the fourteen 'victims' begin to die mysteriously, one by one, and in the order in which their names were drawn from the bag...With growing horror, Wilde and his confidantes Robert Sherard and Arthur Conan Doyle, realise that one of their guests that evening must be the murderer. In a race against time, Wilde will need all his powers of deduction and knowledge of human behaviour before he himself -- the thirteenth name on the list -- becomes the killer's next victim.

This is the 2nd book in the Oscar Wilde/Sherlock series. I read the 1st last year, it‘s a good series to continue during #scarathlon. Oscar Wilde leads his friend, Robert, & other characters during an investigation after they play a game & those people start dying. Author includes Arthur Conan Doyle & Bram Stoker as characters. I like the audiobook but not sure I like the series enough to read the print version. @Clwojick #teamslaughter 16 pts

The second in the Oscar Wilde Murder Mystery Series, and what a romp. Oscar holds a meeting of the Socrates Club where everyone anonymously picks who they would like to die. When people listed start dying Oscar is off to solve the crime. Brandreth does a great job of bringing Oscar to life and creating an interesting mystery.
