The second gripping novel in the New York Times bestselling Thursday
Murder Club series, the first of which Kate Atkinson called A little
beacon of pleasure in the midst of the gloom. . . SUCH FUN!
Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron and Ibrahim--the Thursday Murder Club--are still
riding high off their recent real-life murder case and are looking
forward to a bit of peace and quiet at Cooper's Chase, their posh
retirement village.
But they are out of luck.
An unexpected visitor--an old pal of Elizabeth's (or perhaps more than
just a pal?)--arrives, desperate for her help. He has been accused of
stealing diamonds worth millions from the wrong men and he's seriously
on the lam.
Then, as night follows day, the first body is found. But not the last.
Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron and Ibrahim are up against a ruthless murderer who
wouldn't bat an eyelid at knocking off four septuagenarians. Can our
four friends catch the killer before the killer catches them? And if
they find the diamonds, too? Well, wouldn't that be a bonus? You should
never put anything beyond the Thursday Murder Club.
Richard Osman is back with everyone's favorite mystery-solving quartet,
and the second installment of The Thursday Murder Club series is just as
clever and warm as the first--an unputdownable, laugh-out-loud pleasure
of a read.
