\"\"Susan* recently asked this question:<\/p>\n

“… do you have a page for Card Game \/ Gambling Mysteries? I looked, but I couldn\u2019t find one, … \u00a0I\u2019ve found several Poker \/ Bridge based mysteries.”<\/p>\n

At first I thought that I did have a Mystery Books with Cards Theme<\/strong> already done, but when I looked, it turns out I had the wrong type of Card in mind: Card Making Cozy Mystery<\/a>\u00a0theme. Still on my quest, I came up with two other possibilities:\u00a0Crossword Puzzles and Bunco Mystery Books<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Sudoku Mystery Books<\/a>. (As Groucho Marx used to say: Close, but no cigar.<\/em>)<\/p>\n

Mystery Books with a Cards Theme (Poker, Bridge, Gambling, & Card Games Mysteries):<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jackie Chance<\/strong><\/a>: Poker Mystery Series<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jessie Chandler<\/strong>: Bingo Barge Murder<\/strong><\/em><\/a> (Shay O’Hanlon Caper mysteries, book #1)<\/p>\n

Agatha Christie<\/a><\/strong>: Cards on the Table<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

Debra H. Goldstein<\/a>:\u00a0Carrie Martin and the Mah Jongg Players Mystery Series<\/strong><\/p>\n

Honor Hartman<\/strong><\/a> (aka Miranda James, Jimmie Ruth Evans, & Dean James):\u00a0Bridge Club Mystery Series<\/strong><\/p>\n

Marlys Millhiser<\/a><\/strong>: Nobody Dies in a Casino<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

Gail Oust<\/a><\/strong>:\u00a0Bunco Babes Mystery Series<\/strong><\/p>\n

Please post a comment if you know of any other mystery authors who write Poker Mysteries<\/strong>, Bridge Mysteries<\/strong>, Gambling Mysteries<\/strong>, or any other Card Game Mysteries<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Thanks!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
