A review by mcmulroy
Murder in the White House by Margaret Truman

3.0

I checked this book out of the library when I saw the series was optioned for a tv series. I didn’t realize it was first published 40+ years ago until I was reading it and the characters are out to dinner at a Japanese restaurant and definitions for sushi and sake are given… probably not needed in more current writing.

The book wasn’t riveting but short and entertaining enough. I was pretty sure I knew who the killer was early on but guessed the wrong motive. Quite the Lifetime movie drama at the end.
