Shrink Solves Murder

Philippa Perry's 'Shrink Solves Murder' is a fiction novel that follows Pat, an imperfect psychotherapist who becomes embroiled in investigating a suspicious death that may be murder.

The book mixes elements of cozy mystery with insight into therapeutic relationships and human behaviour, using humour alongside darker subject matter.

Pat's strengths lie in building relationships and rallying others to uncover clues, rather than working alone, making the story character-driven.

The novel offers escapism while drawing on the author's psychotherapeutic background to enrich character development and dynamics.

It was presented on the podcast as a jolly, enjoyable read releasing on May 7th.
